Hey, Supreme Court, this type of shit is why the Voting Rights Act should still be a law.
Republicans tried to boot all poor people off the voter rolls in Mississippi right before an election.

Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa became the first Latina woman elected statewide in Texas history. Hinojosa and Senator-elect James Talarico were part of the wave of Democrats who swept into office on Election Night.
Their victories — and so many others — were powered by Hispanic voters. @AdrianaDiaz has more.

My campaign and others complained about this for months. This should’ve been a national story. Thank God @MSTODAYnews reported it and we and others were able to try to reach these voters.
Local journalism matters!

The reason there is so many affidavit votes is because the Mississippi Secretary of State purged the voting rolls by having Experian come in & clean them up which marked over 50,000 voters inactive before the midterms. So the only way they could vote was to vote by affidavit.

Lots of Mexicans in the comments are missing the point. The fact that this segment was on a morning show is novel. It just would NOT happen in the US. México is ahead of the US on things like this.

On Election Day, 14 cities and counties used ranked choice voting in their local races.
Nearly all released round-by-round RCV results on election night or the next day. Voters also got more choices on their ballot and less toxic campaigns.

Harry Enten makes that case that the fight for Mississippi is over. Scott Colom will be the next senator. And it will be excruciatingly hard for Republicans to flip the Senate in 2028.
A straight cis ally was injected with PrEP on a National Morning show in Mexico. Imagine if it had been done in the US? It's incredible, and I'm happy to see it. Public health is universal.
