PHOENIX (AP) - A federal appeals court on Friday rejected an attempt to halt enforcement of an Arizona law that requires voters to show identification before casting a ballot and submit proof of citizenship when registering to vote.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a trial judge's refusal last year to block the requirement while a legal challenge awaits trial in federal court in Phoenix.
"Now we know we get to enforce the law while the lawsuit is pending," state Solicitor General Mary O'Grady said.
