A bit of grandstanding by senator Ted Cruz appeared to backfire on Wednesday as an entire panel of election experts flatly told him his state’s laws are racist.

At a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring the Voting Rights Act: Combating Discriminatory Abuses”, Mr Cruz began by asking a confrontational question.

“In your judgement, are voter ID laws racist?” the Texas Republican asked.

“It depends,” responded Franita Tolson, a professor at the USC Gould School of Law. “One thing we have to stop doing is treating all voter ID laws as the same.”

Actually didn’t go quite as people think and posted here. This is a continuation of Cruz when he then turned and questioned Richard Blumenthal.. Blumenthal had no answer for Cruz. https://buff.ly/3nYEApO
