    Did Voter Suppression Win President Trump the Election?: the Decimation of the Voting Rights Act and the Importance of Section 5

    Did Voter Suppression Win President Trump the Election?: The Decimation of the Voting Rights Act and the Importance of Section 5 By MATTHEW MURILLO* DONALD TRUMP’S RECENT PRESIDENTIAL VICTORY in the United States has created a media firestorm centered largely around President Trump’s explosive tweeting, anti-Trump protests, and an ee- rie uncertainty over his roadmap of policy creation. However, civil rights leaders are contending that there is a much larger issue at hand—whether Trump used calculated voter suppression to tip the scales in his favor. While voter suppression is an issue that many be- lieve has been eradicated, civil rights leaders contend that “a tangle of Republican-backed ‘voter suppression’ laws enacted since 2010 proba- bly helped tip the scale for Republican nominee Donald Trump in some closely contested states on election night.”1 While many ques- tions remain, there is one question that stands out—did the suppres- sion of minority votes win Trump the election? Voter suppression has been an issue in America since our na- tion’s birth. Section 5 of the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act (“VRA”) has stood as hallmark legislation to combat voter discrimina- tion through requiring areas with a history of racial discrimination to receive a voting plan “preclearance” prior to enacting any new voting laws.2 Since 1965, the Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed Section * B.A. in Politics, University of San Francisco (2013); Juris Doctorate, University of San Francisco School of Law (2017); Master of Communication Management Candidate, University of Southern California (2018).

Cassell ABSTRACT Recently major cities across the country have suffered dramatic spikes in homicides. These spikes are remarkably large, suddenly appearing, and widespread. At this rate, 2020 will easily be the deadliest year in America for gun-related homicides since at least 1999, while most other major crime categories are trending stable or slightly downward. This article attempts to explain why so many cities have seen extraordinary increases in murder during the summer of 2020. A close analysis of the emerging crime patterns suggests that American cities may be witnessing significant declines in some forms of policing, which in turn is producing the homicide spikes.

  • Recent Notable Riots Sparked by Police Actions 1991

    Recent notable riots sparked by police actions 1991 – Rodney King riots. On March 3, 1991, King was caught on tape being beaten by Los Angeles Police Department officers during an arrest on Interstate 210 in Los Angeles. No charges were filed against the 25‐year‐old King. On his release he spoke to reporters from his wheelchair, with his injuries evident; a broken right leg in a cast, his face badly cut and swollen, bruises on his body and a burn area to his chest from injuries sustained by a 50,000‐volt Taser. Four officers were eventually tried on charges of use of police brutality. Three were acquitted, and the jury failed to reach a verdict on one charge for the fourth. Within hours of the acquittals, the 1992 Los Angeles riots started, sparked by outrage among Black Americans and Latinos over the trial’s verdict and related, longstanding social issues. The rioting lasted six days and killed 63 people with almost 2,400 more injured. 2009 – Riots against BART Police shooting of Oscar Grant. Oscar Grant III, a 22‐year‐old Black man was fatally shot in the early morning hours of New Year's Day by BART Police Officer Johannes Mehserle in Oakland, Calif. Mehserle’s trial began on June 10, 2010. On July 8, 2010, he was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and not guilty of the murder and voluntary manslaughter charges. Though initial protests on July 8, 2010, against the jury verdict were peaceful, after dark there were incidents of looting, arson, destruction of property, and small riots.

    2015-2016 Wisconsin Blue Book: Chapter 8

    STATISTICS: HISTORY 675 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.
