Justice Ruth went so far as to say:
"The greatest threat to public confidence in elections in this case is the prospect of enforcing a purposefully discriminatory law, one that likely imposes an unconstitutional poll tax and risks denying the right to vote to hundreds of thousands of eligible voters," Ginsburg wrote in dissent.Near as anyone can actually tell, most of the disfranchised are among those with disabilities, the most common of which is a lack of metabolism.

I eagerly await the day they are as concerned about the " poll taxes " on my 2nd Amendment Rights
During the hearings on the latest universal background check law someone in the hearing chamber described the BC fees to be applied every time a firearm changed hands as a poll tax. The chamber suddenly went deadly silent as the Dems awaited someone, anyone, to lift the curse of their traditional approach to uppity people trying to exercise their rights.
