Rulings stop Ga. from requiring voter IDs
ROME, Ga. - The same federal judge who threw out Georgia's voter ID law last year has blocked the state from enforcing its revised law in this year's elections. The Wednesday ruling came less than two hours after the Georgia Supreme Court denied the state's request to overrule a state court order that blocked enforcement of the new photo ID law during next week's primary elections and any runoffs.

U.S. District Judge Harold Murphy's ruling, which he delivered verbally from the bench, was much broader, also including the Nov. 7 general elections and any runoffs. If the rulings stand, Georgia voters will not have to show a government-issued photo ID to cast a ballot this year. The state's primary election is scheduled for Tuesday.
That means they can bus ringers in from all over the country, vote half a dozen times in a half dozen districts, or, if they're Dem districts, a half dozen times in the same district. Hizzoner seems to like his politix dirty in the traditional manner.
