“‘Horrendous’ Ruling: Federal court upholds controversial voter ID law” blared the top-of-the-page teaser headline for MSNBC.com writer Zachary Roth’s October 7 story on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals upholding the Badger State’s 2012 voter ID law which has been tangled up in court for the past two years.
But although the law was approved by the people’s elected representatives and signed by their governor, Roth treated the development as an affront by unelected Republican judges to the voters of the state:
“Whether to allow Wisconsin’s strict voter ID law for this fall’s election is up to the Supreme Court – a decision that could come any day. But on Monday, an appeals court gave the law’s backers a big lift.
A three-judge panel of the 7th Circuit issued a ruling upholding the law. It was the same panel of all-Republican appointees that last month removed a district court judge’s injunction on the law, leading voting rights groups to ask the Supreme Court to intervene.”
