If they pass they recieve a voter ID, and voting must be done in person and present their Voter ID. If you fail the test your are allowed to attempt it again in two years following a refresher course.
I wouldn't like it, I wouldn't want it, but I would listen to and have a discussion regarding it. More safeguards would be required and we all know that safeguards to protect votes is somehow racist for some reason. What reason that is I have no idea, but I am pretty sure people of color are just as smart and capable as the crackers that vote. Extreme Liberal jackasses don't realize how racist they really are.
