Tennessee court upholds voter ID law

In a win for election integrity, judges on the Tennessee Court of Appeals ruled unanimously to uphold a photo ID requirement:

A three-judge panel of the court ruled unanimously Thursday in a case brought by the city of Memphis and two voters who lacked photo ID and cast provisional ballots during the August primary.

…

The opinion said the identification requirement is allowed under the state constitution and the cost of obtaining a birth certificate to get a photo ID doesn’t amount to a poll tax.

The judges also ruled that a Memphis library card is an acceptable form of government-issued ID.
