I'm honestly a little disturbed that someone just tried to argue with me that the DOJ shouldn't be bothering with Alabama, since they turn red every election.

1. That's not the point of the DOJ - they're there to protect the interests of all Americans, not the Americans who vote blue.

2. States like Alabama routinely turn red because of voter suppression.

3. Ditching Alabama is directly harming all of the vulnerable people in the state. Like, come on.
