Missouri Organization Prepping for Court Battle on Voter ID/Elections Bill

(MISSOURINET) – A Missouri organization is prepping for a court battle on a bill that requires a government-issued photo ID to vote.

Last month, Governor Parson signed the sweeping elections bill into law.

Denise Lieberman (LEE-burr-men), with the Missouri Voter Protection Coalition, says the state Supreme Court has already concluded that eliminating most forms of ID allowed to vote is unconstitutional…

The sponsor of the bill, state Representative John Simmons, says he is confident, as is the Secretary of State, that the two options to vote, by showing a photo ID and casting a provisional ballot, will be upheld in court.
