DOJ Says No to SC Voter ID Law (Again)

Lawyer, sea kayaker, and world traveler, Ashley Kutz, brings this article to my attention:
“I remain unable to conclude that the State of South Carolina has carried its burden of showing that the submitted change in Section 5 of Act R54 neither has a discriminatory purpose nor will have a discriminatory effect,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Perez wrote in a letter Friday to an attorney representing South Carolina in its lawsuit against U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder."
I guess that South Carolina will have to go before the three-judge panel. See you in Court, boys. Maybe we should claim that it's valid under the taxing power. I hear that's all the rage now.
