and that is damn scary. Living in WI we have it bad. Disenfranchised 300thousand of our DEM voters. I am a deputy. I registered voters in 2014 and again this year.

(288 posts)So we're good, right? The most disappointing thing with Roberts is this decision was exactly the opposite of what he attested to in his confirmation hearings. He went against precedent. Completely disregarded what the prior courts had held in multiple previous cases over decades. The decision also took the reins from congress which had passed the law. Remember his "baseball analogy" from his hearings? He said he'd be a referee, not a player.
