SCOTUS smacked down the 9th Circuit again - this time over turning the stay on Arizona’s photo ID rules for the November 7th election.

“The facts in these cases are hotly contested and ‘no bright line separates permissible election-related regulation from unconstitutional infringements,’ ” the Justices wrote. “Given the imminence of the election and the inadequate time to resolve the factual disputes, our action today shall of necessity allow the election to proceed without an injunction suspending the voter identification rules.”

    Looks like I may have been close in my earlier post regard AZ’s law. However, even after a further review by the Supreme Court, I can’t see them ruling the AZ law unconstitutional.

    To follow up with Woody, to get more sanity ON the court, we need to keep a conservative Senate that will confirm decent judges.
