Errin Haines of the Associated Press reported that a Federal Judge in Georgia ruled to block the state’s requirement for voter photo identification. This same federal judge threw out Georgia's voter photo I.D. requirement law last year, and then yesterday issued a ruling blocking the state from enforcing the revised law during this year's elections. Just an hour before, the Georgia Supreme Court also denied the state's emergency request to overrule a state court order blocking enforcement of the new photo I.D. law during next week's primary elections and any runoffs. (Errin Haines report appeared today in The Telegraph, from Rome, Georgia. For the full article, go to: http://www.macon.com/mld/macon/15025482.htm )
