Using the DOJ’s data, Alito also elided the fact that the racial voter gap is actually widening. In the three most recent presidential elections since Barack Obama was on the ballot, Black voter turnout has trailed white voter turnout. trib.al/3w7AXE2

This is so true, except for the part where "Alito cited" - "Alito elided" This would be dead on- but the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society and his clerk wrote it. They CITED fudged data to make their case - and pasted Alito's name on it.

This is some shit, but this also took me down the rabbit hole of gerrymandering to learn that there is also such a thing as prison gerrymandering, which is just a whole other big pile of shit. Trying not to feel doom & gloom. Can't wait to vote in November!
