Excuse the title of the link, but the information contained is (afaik) entirely true. While it could be said that this is just stacking the deck a little, it seems like an "unamerican" way to go about it.
The article is mostly about legislators making voting laws that discourage people who are in certain venues of life from voting. While it isnt a direct way of making voting impossible for the groups it affects, its about as much as I would expect they could legally do.
Im not exactly sure how to word how I feel about this, and would like to see opinions/thoughts/ other facts about it from other members.
