MADISON - The fight continues over whether you'll have to show identification when you go to the polls.

A Wisconsin judge says he will decide on Monday whether to permanently block the state's voter identification law.

Dane County Circuit Judge Richard Niess' announcement at a hearing Friday comes days after a different judge in a separate case granted a temporary injunction to stop the law.

The League of Women Voters and the State Department of Justice disagree on whether the law is constitutional.
