'Daily Voting News' For April 28, 2008

 

Today’s wrong-minded Supreme Court ruling on voter ID is not really a surprise but it is still very disappointing and disheartening. I’ve listed a few articles under “NAtional” below even though the ruling affects Indiana only at this time. The ruling will open the flood gates for more states to join the move to disenfranchise voters. It is a sad day.
