The president also talked about the Voting Rights in the country by challenging claims that voter fraud is a problem and saying the history of restricting Voting Rights is rooted in discrimination. The reason that we are the only country among advanced democracies that makes it harder to vote is it traces directly back to jim crow, and the legacy of slavery, and it became sort of acceptable to restrict the franchise. And thats not who we are. President elect trump plans to nominate a new justice to the Supreme Court that has redistricting and voter id cases ahead.
