Election integrity

Justices Breyer, Sotomayor and Kagan show little sympathy for the Arizona Republican Party and Arizona Attorney General's arguments at the Supreme Court today.

Voting should actually be a little more difficult than it is now, in order to stall off corruption from either political party.

Today, the US Supreme Court is hearing an election reform case from Arizona: Brnovich v. DNC, defending two voting requirements that the Democratic National Committee says cause racial disparaties in voting.

These two current requirements being challenged are 1) that voting can only take place in one's assigned precinct (something we're all used to as it's always been the case) and 2) putting limits on organized 'ballot trafficking' by limiting who may 'collect' a voter's early ballot.
