September 22, 2014: Feds, state clash over Texas voter ID law

The Voter ID law is a “serious problem in search of a solution,” said Richard Dellheim, an attorney with the Justice Department. “That problem is that it violates the Voting Rights Act.”

State’s attorney Adam Aston responded to those claims by saying: “The potential for in-person voter fraud cannot be disputed” and that the state has a vested interest in making sure it doesn’t happen.

By that reasoning, Texas should invest in bear-proof polling places, because there is potential for bear invasion. Also bees.
