SAVE where?

A friend asked this morning if I had seen that the House of Representatives passed its SAVE Act yesterday, a piece of legislation meant to disenfranchise countless voters while purporting to solve a non-existent problem. GovTrack.us shows how the vote went. (Four Democrats voted for the bill.) The roll call is not yet available at Congress.gov. That the bill will fail in the Senate is hardly comforting.

You have to hunt for news of the House vote in The New York Times and The Washington Post. Neither newspaper has the story on its home page. It’s there on the Guardian home page, all the way down the page.

It’s a strange world we’re living in.
