I feel quite confident when I predict the ACLU will spend more on this legal action than if they set up a fund to subsidize those who must buy documents to prove their identity and cannot afford to do so.

That is the only part of the suit that makes even the slightest sense - the burden on the (tiny) number of people who have no photo-id, do not have any birth certificate or other acceptable proof of identity, and cannot afford to obtain the documents.

But the ACLU fails to note that equal protection also requires that my vote not be nullified by a fraudulent voter casting a vote multiple times. And since Wisconsin has election-day registration, with NUMEROUS holes in it (including a provision one can register to vote without ANY documentation if there is someone to corraborate that you live in the state), allowing voting without ID virtually assures that there will be fraud.

They obviously need to change the law then. Maybe with enough Republicans in office next year, they can.
