Chalk up a win for the good guys.
Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson, this morning, Aug. 15,upheld the Pennsylvania law requiring a photo identification to be produced before voting.
The law — Act 18 signed by Gov. Corbett on March 14 — had been challenged by the American Civil Liberties Union, the NAACP and other groups that are basically auxiliaries of the Democratic Party, which has traditionally found itself of the wrong side of allegations of vote fraud schemes.
They have vowed to appeal.
Simpson in his 70-page opinion said that he was “convinced that efforts by [the state] and interested groups will fully educate the public,” on the simple steps required to cast one’s ballot this November.
That means that all, at least more than usual, dead people won’t get to leave their graves on Nov. 6. Election Day. Aka Democratic Resurrection Day.
