ACLU Comment on Justice Department Lawsuit Challenging North Carolina Voter Suppression Law

NEW YORK–(ENEWSPF)–Septemer 30, 2013.  Attorney General Eric Holder today announced the Justice Department is suing to block implementation of the North Carolina voter suppression law that would remove seven days of early voting, eliminate same-day voter registration during the early voting period, and require photo ID to cast a ballot, among other restrictions. The suit also aims to once again require North Carolina to obtain preclearance from the federal government before making changes to its election rules.
