Priorities USA Files State Lawsuit Challenging Missouri Voter ID Law

[Gothmog]

Another lawsuit to protect voting rights http://electionlawblog.org/?p=99520

This is a really interesting state lawsuit. To simplify a bit: Missouri had a voter id law, which the state supreme court struck down as unconstitutional under the state constitution. So Missouri legislators put a voter id requirement into the state constitution, and then passed implementing legislation prescribing which forms of id were acceptable etc.

The new lawsuit claims that the implementing legislation violates the new voter id requirement in the state constitution.

You can find the complaint here.
