Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant signed legislation today requiring voters to show photo identification at all elections. The constitutional amendment was approved by 62% of Mississippi voters last year.  Much like in Tennessee, those without the proper ID can  apply for a free voter ID.

“This legislation is about protecting the integrity of Mississippi’s elections,” Bryant said. “This legislation is a direct result of the majority of Mississippians expressing their desire for a constitutional voter ID requirement in the state. We want everyone to participate in the election process, and we want that process to be fair and secure.”

Palm Beach Post reports that State highway officials soon will begin vetting a list of 180,000 potential non-citizens who are registered to vote against a U.S. Department of Homeland Security database. This could resolve a sticking point between the state Division of Elections and elections supervisors for the state’s 67 counties over the state’s demand that supervisors start removing some of the names from their voter rolls.

The plaintiff in a Section 2 Voting Rights Act case alleging intentional racial discrimination, as well as racially discriminatory results, makes a speech at a rotary club to talk about the lawsuit.  The complaint alleges the plaintiff was not allowed to register to vote because of his race, and that the law preventing him from registering to vote had a specific racially discriminatory intent to prevent his race from voting.  More here.

The plaintiff “was asked whether he has received any threats since filing the complaint. . . .
‘However, over the years, I’ve been invited to leave many, many, many times, and I’ve been called a lot of things too,’ he quipped.”
