Wisconsin Supreme Court rejects second look at Voter ID

October 24, 2014 By Bob Hague

The Wisconsin Supreme Court won’t take another look at voter ID. The justices rejected reconsidering their July ruling that Wisconsin’s voter ID law is constitutional. The Milwaukee NAACP, League of Women Voters, and Voces de la Frontera had requested the second consideration. The court noted that the time to move for reconsideration expired in August, and that the U.S. Supreme Court has already put a hold on the law, rendering the request moot.

The U.S. Supreme Court has not ruled on whether or not the ID law is unconstitutional, indicating instead that it was reinstated too close to the November 4 election. Voter ID was used successfully in a spring primary election in 2012, but has been the subject of legal challenges since then.
