Quiz is over!
The quiz question was, since the Supreme Court made it easier for the GOP to be extra racist to Black voters in swing states, the number of voters purged from voting rolls increased significantly. "How many voters were de-registered between 2014 and 2016? Was it 17K? 170K? 1.7 million or 17 million?

The hint: it's more than in 2006 to 2008 but the same as 2016 to 2018. The answer is... 17 million! AKA approximately the population of the Netherlands!🤡

@[email protected] @[email protected] The US Supreme Court under Roberts weakened voter rights protections for Black voters. Since these protections were weakened, the number of voters purged from voter rolls has skyrocketed. These purges disproportionately target Black voters, but there's a lot of white voter "by catch" as well. Between 2014 and 2016, how many voters would you guess were de-registered? Hint: the same number were de-registered between 2016 and 2018. [ ] 17,000 voters (seventeen thousand) [ ] 170,000 voters (one hundred and seventy thousand) [ ] 1,700,000 voters (one point seven million) [ ] 17,000,000 voters (seventeen million voters)
