Judiciary chairman vows to quickly restore Voting Rights Act - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room

Judiciary chairman vows to quickly restore Voting Rights Act - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room: "Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) pledged to quickly restore the section of the Voting Rights Act that the Supreme Court struck down Tuesday.
"

In one of the comments underneath a typical anti-federalist, pro-states rights comment that were as common in the nineteenth century as they are today:

"So basically Sen Leahy you are more concerned about keeping the south under the federal boot. What is there to keep partisan politicians from acting in an arbitrary and capricious fashion toward sections of the nation's geography? Oh right, it is called the Supreme Court."
