The Pennsylvania Supreme Court's ruling on voter ID is...18SEP12

THANK GOD there are still some institutions in Pennsylvania that seem to be beyond the control of the repiglican / tea-bagger government of the Commonwealth. The PA Supreme Court ruling will force the lower court to certify the PA Dept of Transportation will be able to issue approximately 750000 voter I.D.s in time for the election. Everyone knows this is not possible and so the law, baring a ruling by the lower court that defies the PA Supreme Court, has been nullified. It is a great day for democracy in Pennsylvania!!!! To find out who and what is responsible for this blatant attempt of voter suppression in PA see my earlier post PA House Repiglican Leader Mike Turzai: Voter ID Will Allow Romney to Win Pa.

From Daily Kos.....

Craig, in a major decision that could lead to Pennsylvania's harsh voter ID law being overturned, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has vacated the ruling of a lower court which upheld the law.

The Supreme Court has now given the lower court two weeks to determine if the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation can provide reasonable access to photo IDs for residents who currently lack them. If the court finds that the Department of Transportation is unable to do this in time for the upcoming election, then the law will be overturned.

Given that the number of people who currently lack photo IDs in Pennsylvania is estimated to be around 750,000, there is a good chance that providing reasonable access to new IDs will prove to be impossible, and thus the voter ID law will not be in effect this November.

This is good news, and not just because it nearly puts Pennsylvania out of reach for Mitt Romney. Two of the most important House races in the country are in Pennsylvania's 6th and 8th congressional districts, where solid progressives Manan Trivedi and Kathryn Boockvar are taking on Republican incumbents. With this ruling, both Trivedi's and Boockvar's efforts to get Democratic voters to the polls just got a huge boost, and that gives us all a much better chance of taking back the House of Representatives from the tea party.
