Voter ID will soon become law (in Mississippi)?

Here at the link.  The voter referendum on photo ID looks to be on cruise control for approval by the citizens of Mississippi.  Not to burst any bubbles before the champagne cork has even popped, but the executive branch of the Mississippi state government and attorney general (whoever it is) needs to prepare now for litigation in the DC District Court.  Why?  Simply put, DOJ has already made up its mind to block any voter ID laws that cross its path despite the Supreme Court ruling in Crawford that requiring a person to obtain a photo ID is not a undue burden.  If such a requirement is a neglible burden on all citizens, how can such a law have a disparate retrogressive impact on minorities.   

This article on the debate between the Mississippi Attorney General candidates indicates they each promise to vigorously defend the law.   Democrat Jim Hood is the current incumbent and the only Democrat elected to statewide office.

Hood said he’ll defend the voter ID amendment if it passes and is challenged in court, just as he would any part of the constitution or any law enacted by the state Legislature. Simpson said he supports voter ID, but hasn’t decided how he’ll vote on Initiative 31, which would restrict governments’ taking of private land for private economic development projects.

Politicians make many promises.  These candidates should vow to go straight to court.
