"I'm so inspired by this ad by MS Senate candidate Scott Colom, who reminds us that a courageous man named Medgar Evers🚨died for his commitment to the right to vote. #Vote against the haters. Vote for an America we can all be proud of." -M Jacob "Medgar Evers was killed in his driveway bc⚡he refused to accept a MS where some were denied the right to vote. He stood💙with 1000s who marched, organized & sacrificed so future generations could've a voice." -S Colom #VRA #USPol

RE: https://flipboard.com/@associatedpress/top-stories-u7govdf1z/-/a-Dpz7LK2BRzGyXWsVpl3LMA%3Aa%3A3199720-%2F0 this is completely against the Voting Rights Act ―because proof has never been enough for fascists. they will demand you look exactly like whatever photo they decide is you and write exactly the signature they decide is yours. oh, you don't live in the same address? can’t vote. forget about transitioning: you’re a cis woman who had plastic surgery? too bad. ALL OF THESE EXCUSES WERE USED BEFORE THE #VRA white people, the fascists are coming for your right to vote. #USpol #2026Elections

Noncitizen voting is already illegal under federal #law & incredibly rare. All in all this was a great big nothing burger. #Trump #ElectionLaw #ElectionInterference #BigLie #ConspiracyTheories #VRA #USpol #Republicans #WhiteSupremacy #coup #Jan6 #SeditiousConspiracy

“Our country has to shape up,” #Trump said, calling it a “big announcement.” “It doesn’t get bigger,” he added, “because without free & fair elections, you don’t have a country.” #law #ElectionLaw #ElectionInterference #BigLie #ConspiracyTheories #VotingRights #VRA #elections #USpol #Republicans #WhiteSupremacy #coup #Jan6 #SeditiousConspiracy

Birthdays are for kids. I don’t think the #US needs a sad drunk clown. Oh yeah, right, they elected one. #Trump isn’t a “drunk”, but he is constantly wired on Adderall. Still, after you’re old enough to #vote or drink, nobody gives a shit. I guess that means the US should’ve stopped having birthday parties in 1965, when Black women were finally allowed to vote under the #VotingRightsAct. I guess this should be a day of mourning, as #JohnRoberts’ #SCOTUS has made gutting the #VRA a priority.

A new lawsuit is challenging Louisiana’s extraordinary decision to suspend congressional primaries already underway — arguing the state is illegally nullifying votes and plunging an active election into chaos following the Supreme Court’s gutting of the Voting Rights Act. https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/louisiana-sued-for-suspending-active-election-nullifying-votes-to-draft-gop-gerrymander/ #voting #democracy #uspol #scotus #vra

#GiftArticle #SCOTUS kills #VotingRights The Supreme Court’s decision to upend a key provision of the #VotingRightsAct [#VRA] has plunged the nation into a dizzying new era of partisan conflict, most likely ushering in a forever #redistricting war that could produce fewer competitive seats in #Congress & further #polarize #US politics. #law #ElectionLaw #CivilRights #democracy #RepresentationMatters #authoritarianism #illiberalism #PartisanCourt #ActivistCourt
