A US court further weakened the Voting Rights Act by ruling in favor
of a mass challenge of 36,000 voters, based on an algorithm with no
attempt to investigate those individual voters.
This is a practice right-wing parties use to suppress minority voters.
People whose lives are stressful may just give up. The purpose of the
Voting Rights Act, passed in the 1960s, was to block voter suppression,
but right-wing judges have ruled for weakened interpretations that negate
the law’s purpose.
Republicans know that the only way they can win power in the US is by rigging the electoral system. Voter-suppression is one approach; gerrymandering
is the other.
