It may be hard for you to think this one all the way through, but lets try anyway...

DOJ busts a woman voting 5 times without the new Texas voter ID law.

Perhaps DOJ is confident that existing voter registration laws will allow it to properly do its job?

You do know that the fight is over the Supreme Court ruling in June that states do not have to obey certain parts of the 1965 Voter Rights Law, including the requirement that they notify the DOJ before changing their voting laws?

You do know why the 1965 Voter Rights Law came about, right?

You realize that it is Southern states that hate the 1965 Voter Rights Law, right?

Finally, you realize that it has predominately been the Southern states that have tried to smother the rights of minorities, right? It did not stop when the Civil War ended.
