Georgia blocks voter ID enforcement for this year
U S District Judge Harold Murphy extended an injunction blocking Georgia from enforcing the revised voter photo ID law for the upcoming primary elections and the November general election. The ruling, tied to equal protection concerns, means voters may cast ballots without government issued IDs this year despite past legislative changes. Major parties and civil rights groups weighed in as the state considers options.
