A federal court in Texas on Wednesday struck down the state's controversial voter identification law, granting an injunction that bars state officials from enforcing the measure.U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos ruled that the law was enacted with the deliberate intent to discriminate against black and Hispanic voters. Ramos said that it violates the Voting Rights Act and the 14th and 15th Amendments of the Constitution.The original 2011 law, Senate Bill 14, one of the most restrictive in the nation, requires registered voters to present one of seven forms of government-issued photo ID in order to cast a ballot.
Given that photos are cheap and commonly used in IDs, requiring a photo ID is quite well defined in the Constitution. This is a Sotomayor maker-shit-iup judge with no sense of the law. Nelva just wants to join the chaos.
Intent is immaterial, efficiency over rules. The court cannot deny photo ID any more than they can deny square cards or purple ink. Nor, the court cannot require voters to remove their shoes.
In California it reached the absurdity that volunteer election workers were not allowed to look a square cards with printed names. Think about it,. some dumbshit twenty year old is told it is politically incorrect to look are small square cards with printed names. No one should ever admit to being a California poll worker, people immediately think you are dense.
