News item: A new state law requiring voters to be accompanied by a dog when they go to the polls, amounts to an illegal "poll tax," according to the ACLU and other activist groups.

"Having a dog requires an expenditure of money," argued an ACLU attorney. "If they're going to require possession of a dog to vote, the government needs to provide dogs free of charge to every eligible voter in the state."

A spokesman for the governor branded the lawsuit as "a travesty" and insisted, "The purpose of the law is to ensure that people know before they vote what can happen if the country really does go to the dogs."
