The US Supreme Court on Thursday blocked a lower-court ruling that would have allowed residents of Alabama to vote by absentee ballot without providing a copy of a photo ID.

Alabama also requires the absentee ballot to be signed by two witnesses or notarized.

Roberts was one of the four, wasn't he?

Sounds like a solid win for voter id to go nationally.

I mean if you have to have an I’d to check out a library book or use the computer there, why the hell do people think that an ID to VOTE isn’t the right thing????

People are so dumb.

well precedent, but it being 5-4 is not solid...there is absolutely no valid reason for it not to be 9-0...

So does this kill mail in voting for voter ID states?

I’ve never understood this reasoning. A SCOTUS ruling by 5-4 is just as effective as one by 9-0.

No written opinion.

Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, Kagan would have denied.


Overturns decision of Obama appointee Abdul Kallon.

Adam Corolla has a good take on this, The left claims that the poor and elderly can’t get ids. This is a basic part of being an American citizen. Why aren’t there mobile Id trucks to get everyone an Id.

A dissent can also be use later argue narrowing scope of the original ruling.

The lone dissent in Plessy was later used in the Brown v BoE ruling.

They don’t want an ID. Many have warrants and are skating the law. We all know why they don’t want an ID. How many damn right wingers have been arrested for vote fraud? We all know the answer to this bull.

Best news of the day.

In this country all people who are eligible by the standards set from our government in large are voter eligible. Why do some want to monkey with those standards is nefarious to say the least.
