- This is an article everyone should read because it shows us just how far we are from actual equality. This conserns every color and both genders,The fact that in 2008, not just a person but an entire freaking county, racially profiles and messes with others right to vote is insane. This article is about how Waller County voter registration practices violate Federal voting laws a lawsuit was issued on the grounds that the county violated a provision of the Civil Rights Act by rejecting certain registration applications on immaterial grounds. This is not the first time this County has been accused of racist practices.In 2006 over 300 students said they had to wait three to four hours to vote and ended up casting provisional ballots because their names were missing from election rosters. At the end of the day regardless of what color we are god we belive in or politician we like we are ALL Americans and if we can't band together there is no hope in a better future.

You know, it is sad that the same "Right to Vote" issues are coming up after so many years or equality in this matter. I know of people voting who are not legal citizens of the USA, don't ask me how, yet legal American citizens are still being denied their right to vote. It's not the only thing this Country has going against it, it's just one of hundreds on the polotical nightmare list that may never truly be attended to. If you are a citizen, registered, and educated on the public offices and Candidates, your voice deserves to be heard. You've done your part.
