A new ruling by the U.S. Supreme court has emboldened Georgia voting rights groups. The high court overruled a federal appeals court that ordered Ohio's top elections official to do more to help counties verify voter eligibility. The Georgia groups will ask a three-judge panel tomorrow to prevent state officials from matching new voting applications with driver's license and Social Security data. They say the checks amount to a "systematic purging" of rolls just weeks before the Nov. 4 election.
