Supreme Court Denies North Carolina Request To Enforce Voting Restrictions This Fall

Quote:

The North Carolina voting restrictions struck down by a federal appeals court earlier this month will remain off the books for November's election, following a Supreme Court order on Wednesday.

The justices denied North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory's request to halt enforcement of the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals decision striking down five voting restrictions while the state seeks Supreme Court review of the decision.

Among the provisions in the law that the appeals court has ordered the state not to enforce are limits on the type of photo ID required for voting; reductions to the amount of early voting in the state; and elimination of same-day registration, out-of-precinct provisional voting, and preregistration that allowed 16- and 17-year-olds to indicate an intent to register when they turned 18.

It was a 4-4 ruling. One guess as to which Justices voted which way. Good thing that piece of crap Antonin Scalia is dead!
