Scott Jensen's photo ID

From the Journal Sentinel Capitol blog, by Steve Walters:

Kreuser rips Jensen at Democratic convention

State Assembly Democratic Leader Jim Kreuser, of Kenosha, may get the prize for the most stinging line of the state Democratic Party convention, when he attacked Republican Rep. Scott Jensen's push to require all voters to produce a government-issued photo ID to be able to cast a ballot.

"Scott Jensen already has a photo ID -- it's called a mug shot," Kreuser declared.

In 2002, Jensen was charged with three felonies for allegedly directing Assembly aides to campaign on state time. He was one of five legislative leaders -- two Senate Democrats and three Assembly Republicans -- charged with crimes as a result of the most widespread probe of Capitol corruption ever. Of the five, Jensen is the only one still serving in the Legislature. His newest trial date is early next year.
