A federal lawsuit challenging North Carolina’s photo voter identification law is going to trial. The trial starting Monday begins more than five years after the NAACP sued over the voter ID law enacted by the Republican-dominated General Assembly. The litigation and similar state lawsuits delayed implementation of the requirement until last fall. The plaintiffs say the law violates the U.S. Constitution and Voting Rights Act and harms Black and Latino voters. Republican lawmakers defending the law say there are many more qualifying IDs compared with a 2013 voter ID law that was struck down. The trial could last several days, and no immediate ruling is expected.

Yet aviation analysts say the European company is unlikely to extend its advantage much further despite having customers clamoring for more commercial aircraft. That's because Airbus already is making planes as fast as it can and is sold out for the rest of the decade. Manufacturing constraints at both companies are bad news for travelers as well as airlines.
