I don’t know how to begin to summarize this story about a lawsuit to stop an election for a Mississippi judge. From Courthouse News Service:
Other named plaintiffs include Arthur “Hotshot” Ankston, Curtis “Rerun” Jackson and Arrece Webb. They seek declaratory judgment that “the policies and procedures being challenged unlawfully dilute black voting strength and deny to plaintiffs and those similarly situated their rights.”
The upshot is, in some states, you have to have Justice Department preclearance to die… I’ve heard of government overreaching, but this is ridiculous.
