“A federal judge in Washington, D.C., will hear arguments Wednesday as part of Shelby County’s challenge to two key provisions within the Voting Rights Act of 1965. . . . However, civil rights groups said the provisions serve to protect minorities from organized discrimination at polling places.  The provisions also help protect minority representation on local government bodies, said Benard Simelton, president of the Alabama Chapter of the NAACP.”

Tampa Tribune: “One amendment applies to congressional districts and one to state legislative districts, all drawn by the state Legislature after each Census. Former Gov. Charlie Crist had filed the pre-clearance application after the election.   Scott’s withdrawal wasn’t announced until after news reports revealed it last week.”

Stellar work by the press to dig this up.  After all, the only folks who would know about the withdraw would be the DOJ and the Florida Governor and Secretary of State.
