Well, we wouldn't be "late" in implementing this law if the ACLU, League of Women Voters, and Vocas Fronteras hadn't kept putting this back in court. This law has been in the works for YEARS!

With the amount of effort they put into fighting any voter integrity laws they must be committing a TON of voter fraud.

Does the stupid party (GOP) have anything planned to combat this next months???

Aren’t states required to make sure the vote is carried out in a process that causes confidence in the sanctity of the vote?

How can you do that if folks can vote over and over and over again, and you can’t even ask them to identify themselves so their names can be checked against the voter rolls?

We had better regain the Senate if we stand any chance of stopping this mad SC.

Thousands of Wisconsin voters stand to be disenfranchised by this law going into effect so close to the election.

So if the election were delayed 90 days, would you then be in favor of the law?

Based on the eligibility question and the courts avoidance, I must ask who has standing in this case? Who cannot vote that is eligible to vote? If you can a case to the USSC you can get a government ID.

They claimed in another article that up to 300,000 “Voters” did not have identification. How would they know that if they didn’t have ID in the first place?? If I were a Judge I would have made them PROVE this Claim or get locked up for contempt.

Bring me 1000 of your “No Id” voters and I will show 1000 people that DO NOT HAVE A LEGAL RIGHT TO VOTE. You cant take a leak in this country without ID anymore.

I hope the SCOTUS upholds the law thereby setting a precedent for overturning other Federal Judges striking Voter ID laws.

Didn't the SCOTUS already uphold State's rights to Voter ID laws in April 2008?

2008-Crawford v. Marion County Election Board
-
In a 6-3 decision in 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality
of the 2005 Indiana photo ID requirement,
finding it closely related to Indiana’s legitimate state interest
in preventing voter fraud, modernizing elections, and safeguarding voter confidence.

I have yet to hear of one case where a leg legimate voter is unable to vote due to a ID law.

Kagan is the ‘Circuit Justice” for the 7th circuit.

I believe she can issue an emergency stay on her own.

Voter ID is a huge obstacle to the voter fraud that the Dem Party depends so heavily upon.

If IDs are required in order to purchase a gun, then they are required in order to vote.

Yep,: KAGAN CAN DECIDE THIS ON HER OWN.
“The plea for the Supreme Court to step in now was filed with Justice Elena Kagan, who handles emergency filings from the geographic area that includes Wisconsin. She can act on her own, or share the issue with her colleagues.”

I’m sure she’ll tyrannically block the law.

But wait Mississippi has a voter ID law and Black votes gave Cochran the victory.

And “black voter turnout exceeded white voter turnout in states with voter id.” This even the often lib polifact.

I thought SCOTUS had already ruled that voter ID laws were constitutional.

At the State level, the Dems argued that PA’s law was discriminatory. They used a 92 year old woman to testify three days in court that she could not get to a place to get an ID.

Well, she got to court three days in a row, didn’t she?

Case should have been dismissed.

"Thousands of Wisconsin Illinois voters voting in Wisconsin stand to be disenfranchised by this law going into effect so close to the election.

There; fixed it.
