They couldn't care less about the rights or wrongs of this issue, they do what they're told.

What do you tell the elderly African-American person who uses maybe their social security card, voter registration or a utility bill as identification because that's all they have, but none of them are acceptable as ID to vote because they don't have a photo? This person can't go to the DMV for a free voter ID card, since they were not allowed to be born in a hospital due to their race, and there is no birth certificate or record of them ever being born. I would imagine this situation is not uncommon only among the elderly, but anyone born before the Civil Rights Act passed in 1964.
Lucky for us here in Florida, you don't need voter ID to vote by mail so this elderly person can vote by just calling and requesting a mail-in ballot. Not all states have this advantage.
Some residents of TV who moved here from other parts of Florida may be surprised on election day when they're not allowed to vote if they haven't changed their address. Part of the new law does not allow you to change your address on election day.
