WSJ’s Taranto Attacks My Slate Piece on North Carolina

Here (on my Slate piece).

I’ll let others judge for themselves the soundness of his criticism.  I’ll just point out then when he says “The Texas redistricting case hasn’t been decided yet…” he’s confused about my reference.  It was to this already-decided suit. More on the relevance of the finding here.

I also think it is interesting is that there’s been a big shift now in defense of laws aimed at making it harder to make people vote. The old explanation was that these laws were aimed at fraud prevention or public confidence.  Now, with the voting rights act involved and claims of racism, the argument is that these laws are aimed at hurting Democrats.
