A federal judge in Corpus Christi, Texas, on Monday ruled for a second time that a state voter ID law was written with the intention of discriminating against minorities, according to a report published Monday evening.

U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos had been asked to re-examine her 2015 conclusion by an appeals court.

Two years ago, Gonzales Ramos had concluded the election rules amount to a “poll tax” that was intended to keep minority voters from turning out. Texas voters are required to present one of seven forms of identification when voting.
