This editorial was written by the Sun Sentinel Editorial Board of the South Florida Sun Sentinel In its most infamous decision, the Dred Scott case of 1857, the Supreme Court remarked that Blacks âhad no rights which the white man is bound to respect.â Today, America wonders whether Blacks â and other minorities â have any voting rights that the courtâs present majority is bound to respect. On July 1 the court upheld, 6 to 3, two features of Arizona law that have been proven to have disparate effects on Black, Hispanic and Native American voters in that state. One generally forbids anyone but a letter carrier, election official or close relative to obtain or deliver absentee ballots for anyone else. The other voids all ballots cast in the wrong precinct, even for statewide or national office. Florida law is similarly outdated with regard to wrong-precinct ballots and nearly as strict on who may handle ballots for others.
