More on North Carolina NAACP v. McCrory, the North Carolina Voter ID Case

Last week, a 3-judge court of the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a unanimous opinion striking down North Carolina's voter identification laws.  Guy offered a terrific discussion of the opinion here, and I don't have much to add to his analysis.  It is dead on.  I want to focus instead on the lessons of the case about judicial behavior, race, and constitutional interpretation.
