Only moments after the high court invalidated part of the Voters Rights Act of 1965 on Tuesday, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott said his state will begin “immediately” honoring local legislation that many say limits the ability for minorities to cast ballots.
"Texas’ on-hold voter identification law, which was passed along party lines by the Legislature in 2011, now can go into effect. Also, redistricting maps won’t need federal blessing. And the likelihood of holding the 2014 primaries on time appears to be greater."
If you can't win on merit, change the rules.
