A few days ago there was a long article about South Carolina's Marci Andino, the executive director of the state's Election Commission, whose testimony in federal court exposes the mechanism to be used to deny or invalidate votes.
This isn't about protecting against voter fraud. This is all about taking away the vote from minorities, the poor, and the ill -- taking it away from people who have voted without incident for decades. It's not Andino's fault. She's just the poor bureaucrat left to try to explain the inexplicable: how all of this could come to pass in the United States of America 50 years after passage of the Voting Rights Act.Also, a little history about the Voting Rights Act and the weaselly excuses for the voter ID push. Yes, I said "weaselly," which may be insulting to actual weasels.
