On, Off, On, Off………..It’s Voter ID
The Supreme Court and a lower court blocked voter id laws in Wisconsin
and Texas last week, clearing the way for hundreds of thousands of voters in both states to have easier access to the polls as next month’s midterm elections loom near. A frustrating time for county clerks statewide. Like Ginny Denkmayer in La Crosse County.
The laws are two of many passed by several states recently in what supporters say are intended to clamp down on voter fraud, but detractors argue the rules are discriminatory and illegal.
