Arkansas Governor Mike Beebe vetoed the recently passed photo voter ID law even after receiving an opinion from the Democratic Attorney General Dustin McDaniel upholding the legal standing of the proposed legislation. The opinion essentially says that the legislation is not an additional qualification to vote and very likely constitutional as other similar laws have been found across the country.  This interpretation was certainly not the opinion that Governor Beebe was hoping to serve as the basis of his veto.  Instead, the Arkansas Governor criticized voter ID proponents for the cost of the bill ($300,000), increased government spending and government bureaucracy for an unnecessary measure.  Of course, the Arkansas GOP was critical of the veto of a bill that had bipartisan majorities and pushed for an override of the veto.
