Indiana ID Law Kept Some From Voting

From The Muncie Star Press:

When combat veterans and elderly nuns are denied the right to vote in Indiana, there's something wrong.

Indiana's voter ID law, which was passed in 2005, is flawed, despite the fact it was upheld last week by the U.S. Supreme Court. The largest and most contested election since it went into effect for the 2006 primary election brought the problems to the surface.

It looks now like we have something besides a facial challenge to the law (see my earlier post on this statute here and here.) Of course, getting stronger Democratic majority in the House and in more Democrats in the Senate and kicking out Mitch Daniels might be a quicker remedy for this law.
