JEFFERSON CITY – A state judge threw out Missouri’s voter ID law today, saying it imposes too great a burden on the elderly and the poor.

Cole County Circuit Judge Richard Callahan ruled in favor of a group of disabled, female and elderly voters who lack the required government-issued photo IDs.

He agreed with their claim that requiring drivers licenses and nondriver IDs constitutes "an impermissible additional qualification to vote" in violation of the state constitution.

...."The photo ID buirden on the voter may seen minor or inconsequential to the mainstream of our society for whom automobiles, driver licenses and even passports are a natural part of everyday life," the judge wrote.

"However, for the elderly, the poor, the undereducated or otherwise disadvantaged, the burden can be great if not insurmountable…."
