That's it.
White space.

That looks like it was written by a third grader.

that was my reaction

And by "silly" I mean massively offensive.

if i could get past "what the fuck?" What does drawing shapes and solving number problems have to do with literacy?

When I turned 21 and wanted to vote - in Texas - I had to pay a poll tax. I am white, but in those days, the early 1960's, we were very poor and every penny counted. I do remember that I had to save up to have enough money to pay for the poll tax. I hope we never go back to the voter tests and poll tax again.

Another thing that people don't realize is that it is not easy to get a ID card which states are requiring in order to vote. My nephew who is disabled had lost his birth certificate. He had to have a certified copy of his birth certificate in order to get a Texas ID and he needed the ID so he could apply for housing assistance. His parents are deceased and my family looks after him. It was impossible to take him to the county office to apply and we are not his legal guardian so they county did not want to give us a copy of his birth certificate. I was so upset that cried on the phone to the county clerk, and was finally able to persuade them to give me a copy of his birth certificate. Having a valid ID is another road block thrown up to keep poor and minority from voting.

To me, the real crime here is the partiality.
