Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections Project, released the following statement:

“Ensuring a uniform, statewide voter registration policy is clearly a legitimate state interest. States across the country require wet signatures to register to vote and two other courts have blessed this practice. Why should Arkansas be any different?

“This is just another example of the Left’s legal election industrial complex throwing accusations about violations to the Civil Rights Act at the wall to see what sticks. Multiple federal courts have already ruled signatures in ink on voter registration applications are an acceptable safeguard to election integrity. The Eighth Circuit should follow their lead.”
