9-19-14 aclu legal director-voter id

The legal director for the ACLU of Wisconsin says he is hopeful a federal Appeals court will reconsider its decision to reinstate a requirement that voters show photo ID at the polls.  Larry Dupuis says it would be impossible for all of the registered voters without photo ID to obtain a photo ID in time to vote.  “The trial court found there are 300,000 registered voters who don’t have (photo) ID.  If all of them tried to get ID between now and election day DMV would have to issue 6,000 IDs a day, using a different procedure than they’ve ever used before,”  Dupuis told AM 1170 WFDL’s Between the Lines program.  “Its just not  possible.”
