state will appeal.
It is correct and concise, rooted in the state constitiution's list of qualifications for voting,
the free and equal elections clause, and the voter registration clause. The judge correctly found that by adding a qualification violated the 2/3 requirement fro changing voter registration rules.
Indiana, erroneously in my opinion, upheld voter ID on a qualifications argument, but has not reached the free and equal elections clause issue. I had raised that issue, but the state case was improperly dismissed while the case had been removed to federal court.
