Every time supporters of election reforms like voter ID and citizenship verification, which are intended to improve the security and integrity of our elections, win a case in the courts, opponents drag out the “mass disenfranchisement” claim. You can see that tiresome con game being played once again with the Supreme Court’s Sept. 25 decision in Department of Homeland Security v. League of Women Voters.

It’s not only that the claim has been disproven by the remarkable turnout numbers in states like Georgia that have implemented reforms like voter ID, but federal law specifically prevents disenfranchisement from occurring even when election officials make a mistake.
