Arizona’s controversial law requires ballots cast in the wrong precinct to be tossed and voting rights activists this disproportionately affects minorities. (ABC News)

The Voting Rights Act already gutted needs to be strengthened not weakened to ensure that people across the county have the ability to cast a vote. Clearly there are many forces in the country that are trying to strip voting rights from certain groups so only certain people are elected. Trust in the voting system is already severely damaged because of Donald Trump’s blatant lies. Weakening the Voting Rights Act will only serve to further denigrate our democracy in the eyes of the public.
