🚨BREAKING: In a loss for voters, the Supreme Court ruled to bar New Hampshire election officials from considering student IDs as evidence of identity when registering and voting during the midterms. The broader ban on automatically accepting student IDs as valid photo ID also remains in effect.

Jackson: "I respectfully dissent because—even, and perhaps especially, when an election is looming—I would not disturb a clearly justifiable federal-court order issued to ensure that the public receives accurate information about a State’s electoral processes." Full story: demdock.com/4z0b3gZ
