SCOTUS gives partial victory to GOP trying to enforce proof of citizenship to vote in Arizona
A federal judge had blocked enforcement of the law, which prompted the appeal to the high court for temporary relief.
"The Constitution gives states the power to set voter qualifications, and Arizona is leading the charge to ensure ONLY CITIZENS vote in our elections," the Arizona GOP tweeted. "This case has the potential to prevent non-citizen voting once and for all, which should have been the case all along."
An emergency application for stay by the Republican National Committee argues that voter integrity is a "problem" that’s gone unchecked, particularly with so many "illegal aliens" in the country.
When it came to ruling, Justice Thomas, Justice Alito and Justice Gorsuch would have granted the application in full, while Justice Sotomayor, Justice Kagan, Justice Barrett and Justice Jackson would have denied the application in full.
And Ohio requires a photo ID for voting.
Two states where we can trust the vote.
