...holiday" - an idea dismissed by others in her party as a bit of ineffective pandering - also reinforced questions about her trustworthiness. In Indiana exit polls, a full quarter of Clinton's own supporters said that they did not think she was honest.

In the history of America, states have failed to protect voters’ right or ability to vote, whether out of racism or apathy, and it is horrible that state-sanctioned impediments such as this one still...
