In Court, Texas Defends its New Law for Voter Identification at the Polls — 2 Comments

  1. As I have said elsewhere, lawyers must cite to any court the Twenty-Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution, making clear that it is perfectly alright for a state to require photo identification for voters, so long as the state pays for the identification. To require otherwise is clearly unconstitutional.

  2. The 5th Circuit overturned the district court decision that Voter ID constituted a poll tax.
