The Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Justice Department has opened an investigation of Pennsylvania's new voter ID law, asking the Corbett administration to document its repeated claims that 99 percent of the state's voters have the photo identification they will need to vote in November.
In a letter delivered Monday to Secretary of the Commonwealth Carol Aichele, the Justice Department sought a series of databases and other records that have raised questions about the number of registered voters with proper ID, and left county election boards and the public bewildered about the impact of the new voting requirements.
The Justice Department said it needed the information "so that we may properly evaluate Pennsylvania's compliance with Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and other federal voting-rights laws."
That section of federal law prohibits laws or practices that discriminate against any citizen because of race, color, or language.
U.S. investigation of Pa.'s new voter ID law
Holder is trying to stop the law because there are more voters without ID's than the margin by which Obama won. Has nothing to do with protecting voters but rather protecting Obama.
Such a corrupt DOJ
