More on Missouri Voter ID

See here:

    A proposed photo ID measure never won time on the Senate floor yesterday. The Senate had been bracing for contentious debate over the measure that would have authorized a ballot item to amend to the Missouri Constitution a photo ID requirement for voters.

    Gibbons said there wasn't enough time to piece together the measure. The term-limited Republican leader said he offered the Democratic caucus a chance to craft a bill to address concerns raised about getting the needed documents for a photo ID. "My objective is to have an effective photo ID in place in 2010 that doesn't disenfranchise any lawful voter in the state of Missouri," he said.
