    4 years ago today, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. More important now than ever to protect the right to vote.

        After the Shelby County decision, we saw widespread voter suppression efforts that often targeted minority communities & young voters.

        Do Illinoisans have a right to know that only US citizens are voting in our elections? (Yes Dick it's rhetorical)

        Problem is when certain groups are targeted-their legal id's not allowed. Ex: college students that can't use college id/Home state DL.

        Protect it from socialist, leftist dems... Just another "matter" right? Maybe more tarmac meetings needed? Maybe more Russian uranium sales?

        We have compulsory voting in Australia. I am completely horrified by the corruption in the US Electoral system. Needs an independent cssion.
