No Voter Suppression For You

Very good news from the Supremes.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is siding with Ohio's top elections official in a dispute with the state Republican Party over voter registrations.

The justices on Friday overruled a federal appeals court that had ordered Ohio's top elections official to do more to help counties verify voter eligibility.

Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, a Democrat, faced a deadline of Friday to set up a system to provide local officials with names of newly registered voters whose driver's license numbers or Social Security numbers on voter registration forms don't match records in other government databases.


Damn activist judges! Like Alito, Roberts, Thomas and Scalia! (It was a unanimous 9-0 ruling)

Looks like there's some internal pushback to the reports of FBI investigations against ACORN, too.

Today is a better day in the world of enfranchisement.
