Judge blocks parts of Florida voting law  A federal judge says
some of Florida's new limits on voter registration drives are
likely unconstitutional.  U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle on
Thursday temporarily blocked implementation until a trial can be
held.  One provision requires groups or individuals signing up
voters to submit their registration forms to election officials
within 48 hours of collecting them.  Others impose what the
judge called "burdensome record-keeping and reporting
requirements that serve little if any purpose."  The ruling was
a victory for the League of Women Voters and other groups that
challenged the provisions.  They say the restrictions passed by
the Republican-controlled Legislature are aimed at suppressing
turnout. Republicans contend they are needed to prevent election
fraud.  Those and other parts of a new election law also are
being challenged in another case.
