On January 20, 2016, seven Native Americans from North Dakota filed suit under the Voting Rights Act and the U.S. and North Dakota Constitutions challenging North Dakota’s recently enacted voter ID law on the grounds it disproportionately burdens Native Americans and denies qualified voters the right to vote.
Now that's genuinely interesting. North Dakota is the one place I haven't minded voter ID, because North Dakota is the one place that doesn't use voter registration. But these Native Americans are likely to have a point. The suit, properly, relies on both the state and federal constitutions.
I'm not going to try to predict how this one shakes out.
