Requiring would-be voters to prove their citizenship when they try to register at motor vehicle bureaus is a burden on their right to vote, a federal judge ruled Tuesday, striking down Kansas’s law.
Judge Julie A. Robinson said only a few noncitizens have broken the rules to vote in Kansas in recent years, and that doesn’t outweigh the hurdles placed in the way of thousands of legal voters who are struggling to prove their citizenship.
States instead should rely on would-be voters’ word that they are citizens, Judge Robinson said.
“The record in this case suggests that there is a less burdensome way for the state to assess whether applicants meet the citizenship eligibility requirement; namely, by asking applicants to complete an attestation of citizenship under penalty of perjury,” she wrote in a decision that’s likely to reverberate across the country at a time when voting rights is a hot topic.

It is an undo burden then to prove who I am when I want to drive, when I drink, when I get pulled over, and when I want to buy some cold medication.
Her Ukase needs t o be IGNORED. She needs to be removed from the bench. This is treason. She is giving away America to foreigners.
Good idea.
Absolutely. Juridical tyranny has gone farcenough.
Indignant blogging will surely correct the situation.
Let me guess: a Clinton or Obama appointee.
More vote fraud. Just the way Her Dishonoress Robinson likes it.
On behalf of the Democratic Party.
GWB was a big dud in a lot of ways.
you wondered how Hillary could possibly think she can win an election?
Article XV, Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States [emphasis added] to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.
So the Kansas law that the federal judge overturned was probably intended to protect the Constitution.
Also note that the states have never amended the Constitution to prohibit themselves from prohibiting people who cannot show proof of citizenship from registering to vote.
Kansas should ignore this ignoramus’s decree.
Nullify it and dare her, and all the other tyrannical “living constitution” leftist judges, to do something about it.
What do you call a lawyer with an IQ of 50?
Your Honor.
Robinson was nominated to be a United States District Judge by President George W. Bush
This ‘judge’ is nothing more nor less than an ignorant *ssclown.
YUP; one of Bush’s affirmative action appointees.
No brain, but female and black.
Figgers.
“...is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
she forfeited her right to breathe
There aren't enough trees to hang all the the traitors in this country. As of January 2009, the oath to protect and defend the Constitution has become a joke.
A Bush appointee, yup that great conservative Bush /s
