DOJ asks court to stay injunction against voter ID law
The state Department of Justice has filed for a stay of the injunction against the state’s Voter ID law.
“For close to a year, Voter ID has been the law of this State. It has already worked in the most recent elections. An injunction now, this close to the April election, will confuse people about what is required and discourage them from obtaining a qualifying ID. If, as we hope, the injunction is overturned before the election, those relying on the injunction may be left without an opportunity to obtain their IDs by the date of the election,” Attorney General Van Hollen said in a press release.
