ID Restrictions Would Have Kept Voters from the Polls, Says ACLU
ATLANTA – Less than two weeks before Election Day, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals today upheld a court decision blocking a controversial state law from taking effect that would have dramatically restricted the types of photo identification that may be used when voting.
The American Civil Liberties Union, which brought the legal challenge with a coalition of voting rights advocates, applauded the decision.
...
Georgia’s photo ID law (H.B. 244) reduces the various forms of identification that voters can use from 17 to six, and makes government issued photo identification absolutely required in order to vote. The ACLU and a consortium of voting rights advocates and private attorneys filed the lawsuit against state and local election officials on September 19 after the U.S. Department of Justice granted preclearance to the measure.
[Emphasis added.]
I didn't even know there were six different forms of ID to begin with, much less 17.
Liberals can keep stuffing the ballot box in Georgia.
