Rehnquist's follow-on forces

Rehnquist got his start in electoral politics doing voter challenge in Arizona. The drill is simple, you're the most legally educated person present (thanks to Stanford's affirmative action program for Anglophones), and the polling places are overwhelmingly Hispanic and Democratic, so you demand that each voter, each Hispanic voter, pass an illegal "qualification test" in English on some Constitutional minutia (can you name the third-through-eighth offices named in the Succession Act of 1949?) with some criminal penalty for voter fraud ready and waiting for those who fail and insist upon casting a ballot?

All you want is to knock out a few thousand voters and intimidate a few dozen groups of poll workers.

Hans von Spakovsky is the Bush Regime's nominee for the Federal Election Commission. He's that kind of guy.
