This may get interesting.

“Now let him enforce it”

“She argued that the judge did not provide a clear timeline for when Kobach had to instruct county clerks to implement the policy.”

True. LOL

[jospehm20]

Good. States are supposed to run elections, not the feds.

[jmaroneps37]

A very good move!

[LongWayHome]

If we don’t start pushing back they are going to bury us....good on Kobach.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Isn’t this being appealed?

Not only does it make Kansas ground zero for election fraud, it becomes a precedent to cite in other state actions. Not to mention, it appears to conflict with a Supreme Court ruling that allowed another state (I forget which) to purge its voter rolls if people who hadn’t voted didn’t respond to multiple requests for re-registration.

How many army divisions does the court have?

Yes, I know...

This is over the issue of proving citizenship when registering to vote, this idiot judge ruled it’s unconstitutional to require proof of citizenship.

Little doubt that it will be appealed by Kansas SoS Kobach.

[Hostage]

Yes, it's going to take us years to understand what she said in this here order.

[Luke21]

The federal government can do as it pleases. Why can’t Kansas? I hate “The Hill” so much.

[Revel]

Where is the appeal?

Have the State Police lock the Judge up for Treason.

Good.
This ruling is bound to be over turned.
It’s stupid.
Citizenship is REQUIRED for voting.

Thanks for the clarification. So, according to the constitution, citizens can vote, but non-citizens cannot; but according to the judge, it's unconstitutional to inquire and determine if a voter is a citizen.

Legal logic at its finest.

Kansas to federal judge: DROP DEAD!

The ruling: Husted v. A. Philip Randolph Institute

The State: Ohio

Don’t Mess With Kansas!

[Theodore R.]

Can’t this judge have Mr. Kobach arrested and put under ankle chain the way the son of Jim Bunning did for the KY clerk, Kim Davis?
