James Marlow reports that Congress reopens discussion on ending the poll tax as a voting prerequisite for seven southern states. The House passed a bill to eliminate the tax in six states, but Senate cloture barriers and stiff literacy tests in some states likely doom the measure. Data from 1944 shows Alabama’s low turnout versus New Hampshire’s higher engagement without a poll tax.
