A federal judge struck down Texas's voter ID law Thursday, comparing the measure to a poll tax that intentionally discriminates against Hispanic and black voters.
"The draconian voting requirements imposed ... will disproportionately impact low-income Texans," U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos wrote in her lengthy 147-page opinion. "A disproportionate number of Texans living in poverty are African-Americans and Hispanics."
