Kansas ACLU Calls Out AG Kobach

Here's the voting case that Sunflower State progressive lawyers made this week against the top lawman in Kansas . . . 

"A federal judge recently issued an injunction requiring (Kansas AG) Kobach to add to the voter rolls tens of thousands of Kansans who legally registered to vote at motor vehicle offices. Kobach asked the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals to block the injunction, but the Court rejected his request. The Denver-based court will hear arguments on his appeal later this summer. A Kansas district court judge separately held and reiterated recently that Secretary Kobach cannot stop Kansans from voting in state and local elections simply because they registered to vote using federal forms that do not have the same onerous documentation requirements that Kobach prefers.

"Rather than heed these rulings, especially the one by Shawnee County District Judge Franklin Theis, Kobach is deliberating trying to confuse voters by implementing one standard to vote in federal elections and another standard to vote in state and local elections. The dual system envisioned by Kobach would allow some Kansans to vote for president and U.S. senator, but not for their state representative, district attorney, or state judges. "
