“Federal appeals judges to hear Wisconsin voter ID arguments” – Will J. Posner Participate?

Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: “A panel of three federal appeals court judges in Chicago will hear arguments on whether to reinstate Wisconsin’s voter ID law on Friday, less than eight weeks before the Nov. 4 election.”

The identity of the panel members should be posted by 9 am central at this link.

One big question is whether Judge Posner will be on the panel. The panel assignments are by lot, but some have speculated that Judge Posner could recuse given his statements recently about his earlier decision in the Indiana voter id case. See my piece, Why Judge Posner Changed His Mind on Voter ID.
