August 17, 2014/ Tron Nick

A federal judge on Wednesday denied a request by Wisconsin's Attorney General JB Van Hollen [official profile] to stay the his April ruling [JURIST report] against the state's voter identification law. The April ruling found that the Act 23 [text, PDF] requirement that all residents present photo ID when voting violated the Voting Rights Act [materials] and the US Constitution. Van Hollen asked both District Judge Lynn Adelman and the US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit [official website] to put a hold on the ruling so that voters would be required to show photo identification at the polls in the upcoming November elections. Adelman stated that the request was denied because the chances that Van Hollen would win the case on appeal are very low.
