Judge Rules For 30 Day Residence In Missouri

Judge Ian H. Becker of the U S District Court issued a temporary restraining order barring election officials in the eastern Missouri district from denying voter registration based on state residency rules. The order, tied to a suit challenging the one year state residency and 60 day county residency requirements, could affect up to 100000 potential voters who lack a full year in Missouri. A three judge panel will hear the merits, and clerks may need separate lists of those not meeting constitutional requirements if the rules stand. The order aims to prevent disenfranchising voters before the November 7 election.
