Fox News had a poll wondering if literacy tests should be administered so the sentiment is out there. I'm not talking out my ass but pointing out something that is common sense.

So, like I was saying, if members of our particular community voted in part for Republican candidates or at the very least mobilized ourselves within different parties then maybe this push to disenfranchise us wouldn't exist. At the same time no one should vote for a racist so those of us who did the right thing the past two elections get a pass.
