Very nice of the Court to "allow" the desires of citizens expressed in valid elections.

wont happen in CA where the state is investigating warning letters sent out by somebody saying that immigrants who are residing illegally vote they are going to be deported which paraphrased the illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act, making it a federal crime for non-citizens to vote in any federal election (or state election, unless authorized by state law) enacted by Congress. Arnold has called the letters a hate crime, Sen Kennedy has asked the Justice department for a probe demanding the person who sent the letters to be prosecuted and the Republican party has even come out publicly against these warnings.

Hey, that's good news for all.....
Every Republican candidate in the country should bring this up between now and the election.
And I am all in favor on non-Arizona states running ads citing the ruling to keep the rest of the illegals away form their illegal acts on election day...
Great Job SCOTUS...
Regards,
Joe

It's like seeing your new Cadillac go over a cliff with your mother-in-law driving it.
I like the idea that the SCOTUS ruled in favor of IDs. At the same time I'm sorry to see us come to the point where we have to identify ourselves to government.
Remember when: who I am, where I'm going, what I'm doing is none of the government's business.

I suspect an immediate appeal would be heard for those cases where the laws exactly matched the Arizona law. Otherwise the legislatures will have to rewrite and pass new legislation that conforms to the SCOTUS decision.

This is a good ruling for the upcoming election. Hopefully SCOTUS will leave it stand.
The justices cautioned that they were not issuing a ruling on the constitutionality of Arizona's law. "As we have noted, the facts in these cases are hotly contested," the court said in an unsigned five-page order. Indeed, the court said it would review the legal challenge to Arizona's Proposition 200, approved by the state's voters in 2004. The law requires voters to prove citizenship when registering to vote and to show photo IDs when they go to the polls. The law was meant to make sure illegal immigrants weren't casting ballots.

"The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Friday that Arizona may require voters to present proof of citizenship when registering to vote and identification when they cast their ballots in the November 7 elections..."The operative word is may.
I prefer will.

Woo-hoo! I would love to see this in CA. In 2004, when I offered my driver's license as an ID at the poll, the lady said I didn't need ID to vote. I said 'You're kidding'. Sadly, she wasn't. It's the only way to keep the voting honest.......the honor system doesn't work here.
