    Imagine a woman being born a Smith. She marries a Jones and changes her name and license. Her birth certificate is still Smith. She will be required to have the same name on her BC and License. She will have to choose and change one of them at her expense.

      I don’t quite follow the last part. “She will have to choose and change one of them at her expense”

      Obviously you need to update your license if you change your name.

      So she can update her BC to match her new name? Or is that impossible, thus making her unable to vote because of it.
