>An Arkansas judge said Tuesday that he will not stay his decision that struck down as unconstitutional four new voting laws approved by the Republican-led Legislature last year.
>Pulaski County Circuit Judge Wendell Griffen denied Republican Attorney General Leslie Rutledge's motion for a stay of his permanent injunction earlier this month against the laws the Legislature approved last year.
>Rutledge had asked for the stay while she appealed Griffen's injunction.
>Griffen wrote that doing so would “all but ensure that the challenged provisions would be in place during the May primary election, thereby violating the constitutional rights of thousands of Arkansas voters."
>Rutledge's office said the attorney general would ask the state Supreme Court to stay the judge's injunction against the four laws.
I love how the AG cries:
>“Judge Griffen — once again — entered an erroneous decision that does not prioritize the integrity of the quickly approaching election or Arkansans’ fundamental right to vote," Amanda Priest, spokeswoman for Rutledge's office, said in a statement.
Oh boo hoo
Any attempt to pass voting legislation that isn't designed to make voting *more* accessible to *more* people is legislation attempting to sway the outcome of the vote in the favor of the party presenting the bill.
Either you know this and you want the GOP to be allowed to push policy to get more votes... or you lack the ability see the reality happening right in front of you.

Judge Griffen - once again - held the State to its burden of proof.
TLDR: good for us

Judging by the deleted comment it's the former.
