“Video of Kobach’s testimony could give insight on conversations with Trump”

Bryan Lowry:

A federal judge will allow the ACLU to show video of Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach speaking about his advice to President Donald Trump as part of a trial that will determine whether thousands can vote in Kansas this November.

The video of a 2017 deposition will serve as a piece of evidence in the American Civil Liberties Union’s challenge of a Kansas law that requires prospective voters to provide proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate or passport, before they can register to vote.

Kobach’s team objected Wednesday to the showing of the video on the grounds that they had not had a chance to review the video. They asked that a transcript of the deposition be read instead
