State can block voters if they don’t use a federal registration form according to new law that will ‘cause confusion’

The US supreme court ruled Thursday that Arizona can partially enforce a new law that requires people to prove their citizenship in order to vote, but said the state cannot block them from voting for president or by mail as long as they used the federal voter registration form.

The case involved a dispute over a 2022 law that blocked Arizonans who did not show proof of citizenship from voting by mail or for president, regardless of whether they used the state’s own voter registration form or a federal form.

      Side note:

      Anyone else get a kick out of that one Lemmy maga who seems to go around downvoting everyone who makes comments like these, but with no argument or discussion? It’s like a little badge of honor to me every time I receive or see that one singular downvote on a comment roasting magas or conservatives.
