"The Right’s organized movement to suppress the votes of African Americans, Latino/Latina Americans, and the urban and rural poor by means of the passing of voter ID (Poll Tax) laws in states with Republican majority legislatures in particular has received some attention, albeit principally in non-dominant/restricted media places, although the Right’s illegal removal of legal African American voters from voting roles as was done in Florida in 2000 and other places as well and which continues apace again this year receives no mention at all in dominant/restricted media places and not nearly enough attention elsewhere."
