Details to follow.

This is abig, big mistake<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65382>for 
election administration reasons (regardless of how the court ultimately 
comes out) and I expect now an emergency motion to the Supreme Court, 
based uponPurcell v. Gonzalez, 
<file:///Users/hasenr/Downloads/06a375.pdf>to stop this counting. I 
think there's a decent chance the Supreme Court could intervene on this.

I think this also is fairly indicative that the 7th Circuit panel will 
be overturning the district court ruling finding WI's voter id law 
violating both the Constitution and Section 2 of the Voting Rights 
Amendment.
