    This can’t be retweeted enough. North Carolina publicly stated in court that the reason they stopped Sunday voting was that counties with Sunday voting were disproportionately black, and blacks disproportionately vote Democrat.https://twitter.com/haroldpollack/status/1051657219899617280 …

    North Carolina's stated reason for shutting down Sunday voting was that counties with heavy Sunday voting were disproportionately African-American, and that African-Americans tended to be Democrats. http://pdfserver.amlaw.com/nlj/7-29-16%204th%20Circuit%20NAACP%20v%20NC.pdf … pic.twitter.com/jwU3E5cJlx

        Disgusting that southern states still find ways to exclude African-American voters, even after the 24th Amendment banning previous exclusion on basis of ability to pay poll tax. Who can forget the hanging chads? Also, gerrymandering to carve out poor, black communities is rife.

        OK. Fair point, but worse now & historically in the south. We’re finding different ways to disenfranchise the poor & disadvantaged in the UK through introducing voter ID - need passport or photo driver’s license; many poor voters have neither. Tell me that’s not deliberate.

        Oh it’s totally deliberate. The unique thing about the South is they’re up front in their racism but that doesn’t mean racism stops at the Mason-Dixon Line. Plenty of racism to go around in the US and it seems the UK as well. Just look at our respective leaders.

        Sadly, yes. Brexit was fueled to a significant extent by charlatans like @BorisJohnsonMP and @Nigel_Farage stoking up fears about immigrants. Remind you of anyone? Oddly, they are both big friends and admirers of @realDonaldTrump

        Because they always get away with it. And since the SC gutted the Voting Rights Act many if not all southern & Republican led states have used similar tactics to disenfranchise millions of voters. Mostly POC.

        Well, yes. I was amused because it reminded me of the Title VII paradigm--plaintiff shows s/he was treated differently; defendant shows legitimate non-discriminatory reason; plaintiff shows it's a pretext. Except discrimination based on likely voting behavior not legitimate. :)

        This kind of thing may energize blacks to come out to vote at higher rates and backfire on the Republicans. I hope it does. Everyone: Your vote is precious. That's why they are trying to steal it.
