How Virginia's voter roll purge could impact the election

Just days before the election, the Supreme Court ruled Virginia will be able to continue to purge people from the state's voter rolls. The state has argued it is part of an effort to remove noncitizens from the rolls, but voting rights advocates have found several U.S. citizens were also removed from the rolls at the same time.

THANK YOU for this SCOTUS-centered portion of the larger PBS NewsHour. I don’t always have time to watch the whole NewsHour every night, so this sort of brief, themed focus suits me and my avid court-watching perfectly. Even in segments as short as five or six minutes, this journalism goes deeper and provides more context than reporting ten or twelve times longer. Your strict nonpartisanship coupled with your respect for and knowledge of the history and laws of the USA is especially appreciated at a time like this. Please keep this series going for as long as there’s a USA!!
Excellent source of Supreme Court news

Sadly, PBS’s SCOTUS coverage has ceased to be a nuanced, in-depth view of the Court and has instead become as shrill and hyperbolic as the partisan news sources I try to avoid. A shame, as there is a crying need for balanced court analysis. I can get MSNBC’s perspective on MSNBC. PBS used to be so much better than this.
