MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Republicans who control the Wisconsin Legislature are moving quickly to place a measure on the April ballot that would enshrine the state’s already strict voter ID requirement into the state constitution.  The move would make it more difficult for Democrats to soften the 14-year-old law or overturn the requirement in court. Other states have taken similar steps in recent years to put voter ID requirements in the constitution. Voters approved it in Mississippi in 2011 and North Carolina voters in 2018, while Minnesota voters rejected it in 2012.  The voter ID constitutional amendment is the first proposal being considered by the Wisconsin Legislature this year. The session began on Monday, the Senate is expected to pass it today.   The Assembly is expected to give final approval next week.
