The Washington Post: Top Georgia court upholds state's voter ID law

"Georgia's top court has upheld a state law that requires voters to show photo identification before they cast ballots.
The Georgia Supreme Court's 6-1 decision Monday is the latest court ruling to conclude that the rules are constitutional. The decision found the 2006 law was a "minimal, reasonable, and nondiscriminatory restriction."
Georgia attorneys said the measure is needed to prevent voter fraud, but the Democratic Party of Georgia countered that state legislators have no proof anyone tried to illegally cast a ballot.
Critics have also long claimed the law creates an undue burden on the poor, the disabled and minorities."
