WIN: The 8th Circuit temporarily blocked Arkansas’ “wet signature” requirement, which calls for voters to include a handwritten signature on their registration applications. It ruled the mandate likely violates a federal law that prevents the denial of the right to vote over immaterial errors.

Americans living abroad are committed to taking part in democracy despite the complexity of casting a ballot. But that commitment is being threatened by the GOP-backed SAVE America Act, which if implemented, would cause those living abroad to lose their right to vote, Martha McDevitt-Pugh writes.
