A federal court officially rejected Alabama Republicans’ attempt to drastically weaken part of the Voting Rights Act. Thanks to today’s order, a crucial lawsuit fighting for fair representation in the state will continue. Due to prior court rulings, Alabama already has a new congressional map with two Black-opportunity districts for the 2024 elections.
This is the one thing that blows my mind with all the “voting doesn’t matter” folks…
If it didn’t matter, then why do so many people try to limit who can vote, how you vote, when you vote, who is allowed to be voted on, where you can vote, your voting rights in general, or just plain outright trying to stop you from voting altogether.
And the people going around parroting that voting doesn’t matter are either accomplices who also want to prevent you from voting, or USEFUL IDIOTS who genuinely are too dumb to realize that voting does in fact work. (also people who say voting doesn’t matter have clearly never voted in a local election)
