Quote: WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court ruled Monday that states cannot on their own require would-be voters to prove they are U.S. citizens before using a federal registration system designed to make signing up easier.
The justices voted 7-2 to throw out Arizona's voter-approved requirement that prospective voters document their U.S. citizenship in order to use a registration form produced under the federal "Motor Voter" voter registration law.
I ain't surprised. I mean, how many time have the courts ruled on this? And how many times have they come back and said "no?" And how many times did the assclowns ignore the court saying no and try to do it anyway?
It's only a matter of time before this goes before the supreme court of the US. The bad news is that the supreme court is controlled by the same party that wants to restrict voting rights. However, Obama is still going to be president for another three and a half years and I'm still hoping Scalia and/or Thomas drop dead before then.
