leland vittert is live in washington. so, leland, who does this help and who does it hurt potentially? >> reporter: good morning, martha. conventional wisdom says this is a blow to republicans especially in wisconsin where governor scott walker is in a tight governor's race. the law requires voter i.d. at polls which justice department and others argues disenfranchises minorities and poor who are historically the democratic base. in texas the justice department says that nearly 600,000 hispanics and others could legally vote but would have been blocked by the i.d. law that was in place in that state. in texas, eric holder and his justice department got heavily involved in the case. one activist called the latest rulings in both wisconsin and texas, quote, a perfect storm against voter i.d. and keep this in mind. we're now under a month until election day when these rulings have come down. there will be a lot of changes, perhaps a lot of confusion who is allowed to vote and what you need before you show up at polls. martha:
