Platt Bill Attack Sparks Southern Representation Debate
Senator Carmack challenges Senator Platt's bill to cut southern representation, arguing it targets the South without proper data on disfranchisement. He cites Mississippi literacy tests and constitutional questions, and calls for constitutional remedies via courts rather than Congressional actions. He also urges a probe into presidential campaign corruption and voter misconduct nationwide.
