Pennsylvania agreed to let a court order barring enforcement of the state’s voter-identification law continue through the November elections.

The agreement, reached as a nonjury trial over the law concluded, means Pennsylvanians will be able to cast ballots without presenting photo IDs. The extension needs court approval. The judge didn’t say when a final decision on the case will be announced, and the loser will probably appeal, lawyers have said. The trial started July 15.
