Reply To: Every vote counts

Iowa, Ohio, what’s the difference? My apologies to Georgians for confusing them with Alabamans.

Joseph, there have been five Constitutional amendments that have expanded the right to vote (15, 17, 19, 24, and 26). That’s a huge proportion of the total. It shows how much the American people want voting to be open to all citizens. (Yes, I realize the 17th Amendment didn’t expand the number of people who could vote, but it nonetheless expanded the power of the voters.)
