“NAACP lawyers grill elections director in trial over photo IDs”

Winston Salem-Journal:

After four days of testimony, the North Carolina chapter of the NAACP and the U.S. Department of Justice rested their case Thursday in a federal trial challenging North Carolina’s photo ID requirement for voting.

Their last witness was Kim Strach, the state’s elections director.

It was through sharp questioning of Strach that plaintiffs argued that state elections officials had failed to educate the public about a recent amendment to the photo ID requirement that state Republican legislators passed last June.
