      Kamala Harris, talking about the history of flatly discriminatory treatment of black voters, unintentionally makes the case for an originalist interpretation of the 14th & 15th Amendments, without fear or favor, which the Court failed to apply for many years.

      Barrett corrects Harris' claim that the Court in Shelby County struck down Section 5's preclearance rule, as opposed to telling Congress that it had to cite some evidence to decide what jurisdictions were covered.

          Harris rather obviously is framing these questions specifically to get Barrett to not answer them.

          Barrett points out that Harris is trying to leap from an uncontroversial to a controversial point.

          Not updating the data in the preclearance formula from early-70s numbers has to be one of the greatest self-owns of the 2009-2011 Dem majority in both houses

          Wait, I thought ACB wanted courts to defer to the political branches. How is “give us a good reason” deferential?

          The preclearance req. in Section 5 was subject to the coverage formula in Section 4(b). That coverage formula was obsolete, based on decades-old data. Thus, when Section 4(b) was struck down, the application of Section 5 became dependent on a new formula from the legislature.
