With just over a week to go until the Georgia Primary on July 18th, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Melvin Westmoreland issued a restraining order blocking enfoecement of Georgia’s Voter ID law. The law requires voters to supply a valid photo ID before they can vote.

In a sharply worded ruling, Westmoreland said Friday that Georgia’s voter ID law “unduly burdens the fundamental right to vote rather than regulate it” and would cause “irreparable harm.”

Governor Perdue has vowed to get the order stayed.

“We’re pleased it’s moving forward,” Perdue spokesman Dan McLagan said of the appeal. “We can’t for the life of us understand why the Democrats have been so hellbent on making it easier for dead people, felons and illegal immigrants to cast ballots in their primary.”

Prior to the new law Georgia voters could vote with various forms of ID including fishing licenses and highschool yearbook photos. The law has provisions for providing free photo ID cards to any voter who can not afford a state issued licens. As well the law allows voters to vote provisionaly if they show up to the polls without proper identification. Their votes will count once they are properly identified. The law does not apply to absentee ballots.

This is a last ditch effort by the left to maintain the vote manufacturing gravy train they have enjoyed for years in Georgia.
