Missouri Supreme Court to decide if voter ID law and paid registration ban violate rights.
The Missouri Supreme Court is set to rule on a 2022 law requiring government-issued photo ID to vote and banning paid voter registration efforts.
Critics, including the Missouri NAACP and ACLU, argue the ID requirement disproportionately affects voters with disabilities, low income, or document issues, citing 116 ballots rejected in 2022.
They also claim the paid registration ban suppresses voter participation and violates free speech.
The state maintains the law prevents fraud and notes most affected voters eventually obtained IDs.
The court’s decision, expected soon, could invalidate the ID requirement, eliminating a two-week early voting period and reshaping voting access in Missouri.
