Guardian UK ^ | 06.27.13

The Supreme Court has thrown out lower court rulings that blocked a Texas voter identification law and the state's political redistricting plans as discriminatory.

The court's action Thursday was a predictable result of its major ruling two days earlier that effectively ended the federal government's strict supervision of elections in Texas and other states with a history of discrimination in voting.

” Dems were celibrated the SCOTUS ruling to advance state sponsored perversion big time last night, but having all those red states now advance their voter ID laws at the same time is ruining it for them.”

Allow me a tear : )

Like in SC TX voter ID stands as the law in the state. Voter Rights Act is dead.

I live in a small mostly rural community in Idaho. I know personally all the people who work at the polling place where I vote. For several election cycles picture ID has been required. Even though I know them, they request and I happily display my identification. No lawsuits to force us to stop doing so.

The difference between Idaho and swing states or states that the democrats want to capture is that there isn't a snowball's chance of surviving Satan's back porch that we in Idaho will elect a democrat to the White Hut (someday, maybe "House" again).
