Prior to the Supreme Court gutting the Voting Rights Act in 2013 - the U.S. Justice Department would not have allowed Arizona to engage in such voter suppression tactics.

Wait, so invalidating those parts resulted in voter suppression which led to long lines at the polls?
Seriously?
YOu are truly the biggest dumbshit on this site.

Yes, that is exactly why Maricopa County, Arizona was allowed to eliminate numerous polling locations without prior approval/oversight from the U.S. Dept. of Justice.

Most counties surveyed by The Arizona Republic had enough polling places to average 2,500 or fewer eligible voters per polling site. Maricopa County had only one site per every 21,000 voters.

There Was 1 Polling Site For Every 21,000 People In Maricopa County, Arizona

You are the biggest dumbshit on here.
So it is not "Arizona" but one county in AZ. It is not voter suppression when polls experience an overflow of voters.
Your worthless post is spat on and ignored.

if polls are intentionally reduced to cause long lines making voting more difficult in certain areas it is in fact voter suppression

Just a question---------> If the intent was to suppress with long lines, exactly how did they know who they were suppressing? Not only that, but since it is a closed primary with no crossover allowed, exactly how did this affect Democrats more than the GOP?

 

[Wildman]

i am INDEPENDENT, i was not allowed to vote.

 

[Claudette]

Another bullshit thread brought to you by the king/queen/it of bullshit threads.

Maybe if Trump wins the bullshit artist known as Lakota will move out of the country.

We can only hope.

got your voter ID, carbonhead? you need it to collect your welfare and food stamps, but don't want to show it to vote. Do you really think that makes sense?

 

[Freewill]

I didn't think that the majority of the democrat party bothered voting in the Primaries. Hell the DNC has a hard time programming them to vote in the mid-terms.

I can tell you didn't vote in Maricopa County, AZ yesterday. With only 60 polling places in a county with ~21,000 to vote in each of the 1.25 million registered voters in the county, it was just a bit CROWDED where we voted. It was early, but we still had over an hour wait. When we came out the line had about doubled. If the Auditor, et al, pull the same shit for the General election in November, it will definitely impact the turnout.

I heard on the news last night that some polling places closer in toward Phoenix proper had 5 + hour wait times. This never would have happened if SCOTUS hadn't have red lined Section V of the Voting Rights Act. It would have brought the DOJ down on the State given this was a specific tactic use in the Tom Crow era to curb voting by "undesirables". Arizona got tagged for this same shit back in the '70's, so they know how it works.

So then, somehow the undesirables had to wait in line longer than the desirable people. Explain how that is enforced.

The part that eliminated U.S. Dept. of Justice approval/oversight prior to engaging in voter suppression (i.e. reducing number of polling locations).

So voter suppression is okay if the federal government agrees with it?

Are you really that dense? The role of the U.S. Dept. of Justice was to prevent voter suppression - until the Voting Rights Act was gutted by the Conservative Supreme Court.
