: The Law and Politics BlogUS Supreme Court Upholds Voter ID Requirement
By Aaron Street
This morning the United States Supreme Court released its decision in Crawford v. Marion County Election Board (pdf). This case sought to determine whether the State of Indiana's voter identification requirement violated the constitutional rights of voters.In its plurality-decision today, the Court upheld the voter identification requirement in Indiana, ruling that states only need a rational justification for implementing new voting requirements.
Institute for Law and Politics Advisory Board Member Rick Hasen has a more detailed analysis on his Election Law Blog.
Do you think today's Court ruling will encourage additional states to pass stricter voting requirements?
