ATLANTA – Nearly 1,700 voting precincts in 13 states have been shut down since 2012, many in black or Latino communities, after a landmark court decision that removed federal oversight of local voting practices, according to a new report. The report, released this week by the Leadership Conference Education Fund, showed a surge in poll closures after a U.S. Supreme Court decision in 2013 that gutted a section of the Voting Rights Act requiring certain states and cities obtain federal approval before changing voting laws or practices. After the law, which targeted communities with a history of voter discrimination, was struck down, Texas saw 750 polling locations closed, Arizona lost 320, and Georgia shut down 214, according to the report "Democracy Diverted: Polling Place Closures and the Right to Vote." Leigh Chapman, voting rights program director for the Leadership Conference Education Fund, said the mass polling place closures are a form of voter suppression. In many cases, she said, voters were not informed their voting precinct was closed or relocated. Georgia's counties saw a higher percentage of polling location closures than any other state. According to the report, Lumpkin County, a majority-white county in the north central part of the state, closed 89% of its polling places. Warren County, a majority-black county east of Atlanta, closed 83%. The accelerated closures left seven counties in Georgia with just one polling place to serve hundreds of square miles. |

Every suburb here has a polling place usually at the local school...... Seems to me they make voting difficult there...... Wonder why? |
