WASHINGTON – Hunger strikers for voting rights legislation began to feel the health consequences on the second day of their strike outside the U.S. Capitol, but remained committed.

"I'm feeling very tired, cold and hungry, obviously, but committed to being here," Un-PAC co-founder Shana Gallagher told Fox News Digital. Gallagher said she's also "having trouble sleeping" and experiencing "really bad" headaches.

West Virginia graduate student Dominic DiChiacchio said "the hunger is starting, but it's still so early, so the morale is still really high."

You don’t feel hungry on the second day of a fast.

Never been as righteous a fast since those who took an oath not to eat until Saint Paul was dead.

Someone needs to stay near them eating something hot, tasty, with a good aroma. Do that a couple times a day and taunt them.

What is the point? We are supposed to be shocked and awed by college kids protesting a problem which doesn’t exist?

Are we allowed to say inconvenient truths, such as the fact that nobody is denied the right to vote?

Why do people protest against demonstrably false issues?

It isn’t 1955 anymore. Black people register to vote, and actually vote, in southern states nowadays. Do these college kids understand that?

Is this a no malarkey hunger strike? You know, the one where you stop eating until you get in the chartered bus with catering inside?
