Supreme Court: ‘Racism Is Pretty Much Over, Right?’

What part of “vast conspiracy to suppress voter turnout” didn’t the Supreme Court understand?

Three things I’d like to add as food for thought in anticipation of the really fun comment conversation that I’m sure will arise:

  • First, we have fact-checked this video. 


  • Second, in spite of the many efforts to create tighter, fraud-proof voting regulations, over the years I have found no convincing evidence that voter fraud is, well, real. 
  • Third, requiring IDs to vote makes it harder for citizens to exercise their constitutional right to vote — it is an obstacle to democracy. Insurmountable? No. But an obstacle all the same.
