The only issue I can see with this ruling in its practical application is accounting for someone who recently lost thier ID somehow. I dont think it unreasonable to ask for photo ID. But, if I lost my wallet over the weekend and the election is on Tuesday, well I think everyone can see a potential problem there.

Nope, not a problem at all. There are provisional ballots for that. Your vote is provisional until you come back a few days later with your ID. Problem solved.
