ELECTION LAW BLOG on Cape Vincent's Voter Fraud Law

NY Town Tries to Impose Voter ID Requirement in Violation of State Law

Watertown Daily Times reports. And a nice attempt to take away the franchise as well. I love the story’s kicker:

Harold L. Wiley, a lifelong Cape Vincent resident, had submitted petitions to the Town Board urging the driver’s license requirement.

“In my opinion, it’s voter fraud,” Mr. Wiley said of the registration drive. “I used to know everybody in Cape Vincent. But among those 250 voters, I’d be surprised if I knew more than 10 people.”

Yes, it’s voter fraud if you don’t like how your political opponents are going to vote.
