Good News Out of Florida

Federal Judge Robert Hinkle has announced that if the Appeals court remands or dismisses the state of Florida's appeal, he will issue a permanent injunction against their voter suppression law:
A federal judge said Wednesday he would permanently remove harsh restrictions on third-party voter registration groups that have handicapped registration efforts in Florida this year. U.S. District Judge Robert L. Hinkle said he would grant a motion to permanently remove the restrictions once he receives confirmation that a federal appeals court has dismissed the case (the state of Florida has agreed to dismiss their appeal).
Hopefully, this will happen in the rest of the states that are trying to people from voting while black.
