Shame on North Carolina | National Catholic Reporter

Shame on North Carolina | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: In most places, poll watchers are there to see who has voted so you can turn out those who have not.  In the south, they are there to intimidate and that is simply wrong.  Of course, the way around that is to send your own poll watchers to make your voters feel at home.  The real problems are the fact that they are closing early voting on Sundays - which will lead to lines - and the fact that the Governor said the would not sign the bill - meaning he is either a coward or most likely a liar.  Luckily, Section 2 of the Civil Rights Act can be used to challenge these provisions, with Section 3 remedies included (putting North Carolina on the pre-clearance list, where it belongs).
