Sad, upset and angry, is how I feel for people who are facing disenfranchisement of the worst, horrible kind.

This is infuriating. The worst part of the new laws, I think, is that it allows the GOP to dissolve the County Boards of Elections, and put their own appointees in to run the elections. The Democrats are going to have to monitor the elections very closely to point out incidents of voter intimidation.
