RBG!

Six Supremes said it would be disruptive and confusing to strike down Texas's new restrictions on voting so close to the election.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg penned a dissent, joined by Kagan and Sotomayor, that says, in part:

"The greatest threat to public confidence in elections in this case is the prospect of enforcing a purposefully discriminatory law, one that likely imposes an unconstitutional poll tax and risks denying the right to vote to hundreds of thousands of eligible voters."

Preach it, sister!
