Papantonio: Federal Judge Strikes Down WI Voter ID Law



On Tuesday, Federal Judge Lynn Adelman struck down Wisconsin’s voter ID suppression law and absolutely destroyed the notion of suppressing votes. Adelman argued that the law blatantly discriminated against minorities, violating section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. He also pointed out that the new voter restrictions were absolutely unnecessary.

Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio discusses this with Brad Friedman, founder and publisher of The BRAD BLOG.
