“It was based on thousands and thousands of pages of testimony as to why we ... needed the Voting Rights Act. I thought it was a done deal, passed out of the Congress, signed by a Republican president, and then it found its way to the Supreme Court,” Clinton recounted.
Cases don’t just “find their way to the Supreme Court”.
The legal case involved was filed by officials in Alabama, who sought release from the requirements of the voting rights act, because they were no longer discriminating against anyone in voting. In fact, as I recall, in that area, voter registration and turnout was higher among blacks than among whites. The discrimination of the past was long gone.
But facts don’t matter to the liberals. Hillary and her ilk will always think it’s 1960 in the south, and that blacks need their “protection”.
I would love to know about the 80,000 voters allegedly turned away from voting in Wisconsin. Does Hillary just make stuff up when giving a speech?
Of course she does. If that had truly happened, we would have been hearing about it every day for the past twenty-eight months.
