Judge: Law trimming early voting in Ohio is unconstitutional

Seahawk said:
The judge only found it unconstitutional because it supposedly effects more blacks than white people. If blacks were not effected more than whites the judged would not have ruled it unconstitutional. Seems like a racist decision. :dunno:

"Patriot" Righties first put the limitations into place because it restricted the voting rights of black folks more so than white folks.

Bullshit.

"early voting in which Ohioans could also register to vote — a period known as golden week"

If there is anything the left hates is allowing enough time to verify that voter registrations are indeed valid....
Register and then one or two days later, vote, so the fraud continues.....

"Fraud" you still have yet to prove even exists.

It really is amazing how infantile the blacks seem to be. Let's see all of the things they can't do that whites seem perfectly capable of doing

1) They can't seem to find jobs as their unemployment rate is higher
2) They can't seem to keep their families together as their illegitimacy rate is higher
3) They can't seem to be able to find a way to get a photo ID
4) They can't seem to be able to figger out how to vote on one day
5) They can't seem to get into college without special treatment

Now all of these things are documented facts, but rest assured that idiots like Deshtard and Peonthepussycat will only be able to muster up the word RACIST as a response. That is what deep thinkers they are

I bet they can must some set of excuses for each one you listed blaming someone else for the results.
 
Watson said statistical and anecdotal evidence presented in the case reflects that black voters use same-day voter registration and early voting options at higher rates than whites. While the court can't predict how African-Americans will turn out in future elections, he said, "It is reasonable to conclude from this evidence that their right to vote will be modestly burdened" by the law.

Judge: Law trimming early voting in Ohio is unconstitutional

A law trimming early voting in swing-state Ohio is unconstitutional and cannot be enforced, a federal judge ruled Tuesday.

The state's Democratic Party was among the plaintiffs who sued Ohio's elections chief over a series of Republican-backed voting changes.

Such policies included the elimination of a week of early voting in which Ohioans could also register to vote — a period known as golden week. Democrats alleged the change disproportionately burdened black voters. The state argued that the changes were minor and that Ohio residents had many opportunities to vote.

U.S. District Judge Michael Watson sided with Democrats on their golden-week claim, ruling that the cut violates the Voting Rights Act and voters' equal protection rights.

Watson said statistical and anecdotal evidence presented in the case reflects that black voters use same-day voter registration and early voting options at higher rates than whites. While the court can't predict how African-Americans will turn out in future elections, he said, "It is reasonable to conclude from this evidence that their right to vote will be modestly burdened" by the law.
