A large number of #voters in the #Hinds #County, #Mississippi, #election today are are going to their normal #polling #precincts only to find out that their #precinct location was moved just 13 hours before the #polls opened.
Because #voter #disenfranchisement is what #Republicans call "#democracy".
And #SCOTUS lets them get away with it.

The death comes just weeks after Hinds Co District Atty #JodyOwens touted his office’s efforts to move more cases from trial & into diversion programs to, in part, reduce the length of time people are detained in the jail w/o going to trial.”
