Kagan v. California

Kagan v. California was a legal case involving the state of California's efforts to control voting fraud. The case challenged California's law requiring voters to show identification when casting ballots. The Supreme Court examined whether this law unfairly suppressed voter turnout, especially among minorities and the elderly. Ultimately, the Court upheld the law, ruling that strict photo ID requirements are acceptable if they are designed fairly and do not discriminate against voters. The case balanced protecting election integrity with ensuring all eligible citizens can vote without unnecessary barriers.
