The problem is that the ruling was not based in the whole concept, but was based on the fact that the law affected only certain states. The way it can be “ corrected” is by passing a law that makes it applicable to all states. Watch for this to happen.

I don't think so. Under the old rules, it was easy for both Republicans and Democrats from states not affected to "stick it to" those evil, racist states. Now that the rules must apply to all states, they will not be as inclined to sign up. I don't think that the Congress will agree to any new rules and therefore, Section 5 becomes moot.

That's what I'd do. And base selection of jurisdictions in need of supervision on the most recent Census and most recent Presidential election results. I doubt that minority voter participation is very high in Paterson NJ. Not that a large proportion of Paterson NJ minority residents are even eligible to vote. But that minor detail wasn't specified in the first place. It would be a hoot requiring Holder's supervision of indigo-blue cities where most of the vote fraud takes place.
