Happy 2020. Today, we’re bumping an episode from May 2019 back to the top of your feed because it’s about a fight that will come to define so much of what happens this year in American political life: Voting rights. One Supreme Court case discussed in this episode is about adding a question to the U.S. Census that would have asked everyone if they were a citizen. The other case is about partisan gerrymandering. Since we first recorded this episode, both major cases have been decided. Census ballots have been sent to the printer without the citizenship question. And the Supremes rejected efforts to rein in partisan gerrymandering. But the underlying issues are still very much at play. The first votes in the Democratic primary get cast just next month, so we wanted to remind you of some of the biggest hurdles facing voters this year. We get into it with the director of ACLU’s voting rights project, Dale Ho, and our very own Ari Berman.
