It's a state issue, and the DoJ has no business getting involved, IMO.

I'm sure that a handful of loonies on FR will find a way to blame Rick Perry for this too, though.

Will the DOJ and federal judges be telling us what election outcomes are also “legal”, and that any elections minorities lose must be “illegal”?

It is up to state legislatures and governors to define their districts, anything else is usurpation.

On the obverse, its safe to say Carling will be showing up on a rick perry mentioned thread with pom-pom's and blushing.

Got all your talking points tonight? Have you at least expanded your talking points? Rinse and repeat was getting old.

Obama is not a leader, nor is he a person of character or courage. He has wasted all the support and love the media bestowed upong him with his vindictive agenda.

Since his first day in office all he has done is shun, ignore, or work to get even with anyone and everyone who did not support him or give him money.

I agree. But preclearance by the Justice Dept is a requirement under the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Section 5. This section was extended for another 25 years by the Congress in 2006. Preclearance is require in states or parts of states.
