It's biased because the law impacts one segment of voters significantly more than others. In this case Latino voters are far more likely to not have the required forms of ID.
In many voting district here in Texas there is a Latino majority, yet rich white guys still hold the most powerful political positions. The fat cats are trying to hold on to their gravy train.
Similar BS taking place here with updating Congressional Districts based on 2010 Census figures. Federal Court has stepped in. Texas Presidential Primary was supposed to be this month, still no date set while they litigate this.
[edit]These Latino voters are registered, they are citizens, they just don't have the photo ID's the law specifies nor do that have a reason to need them other than to satisfy the law.
