Huge win for Dems as it racially disenfranchised a large number of minority voters

Not SCOTUS, the 4th Circuit.  But there aren't likely 5 votes to reverse or stay this at SCOTUS before the election, so it should be final.  4th Circuit precedent is binding on VA as well as NC.  Does this mean the VA voter ID law also falls, or is it specific to the circumstances under which the NC one passed?

Just the NC voter ID law I believe. I corrected the thread title
