We do have a national ID system, or at least something that can be used as one.
Our SS numbers. That is, right now, our version of a 'National ID'
Anyway, the reason why the Fed is trying to get voter regulation is because what happens in a single state can easily affect the Union as a whole. Elections are a prime example of a, supposed state issue, that can and will effect the entirety of the Union.
Well, some elections. I agree that for minor voting issues, such as a town electing a new mayor, really don't play that large a part to the nation. But voting for senators and congress members? And the president? Those are going to effect much more then just a state.
In those cases, Voter Fraud isn't a state issue. It's a national issue. And the Federal Government is, as is should be, trying solve the issue for the betterment of the nation.
