Voter Issue News Update
Just hours ago, The Washington Post issued an press release on how the US Supreme Court is sidestepping voter issues and gerrymandering of certain districts in order for either political party to increase their odds at retaining political power.
Very interesting update and an political hot button issue for how votes are cast, who gets to vote, how certain minority sectors of US society are kept at bay and things of this nature. We need voter reform in the worst way and I know that it's nearly impossible to address with the strangle hold the GOP has in current day political affairs... but it's worth an read because, I feel, until this is effectively addressed, voting issues (gerrymandering of districts, the electoral college issue, et al) will prove difficult to rectify, or redact poorly written codified laws, until these critical voting issues and others is addressed in unbiased, non-partisan ways.
