        I did. That's why I'm confident in my statement. I saw no direct quote where the person in question said he was against early voting because it would favor blacks, or that he thought that blacks were less educated. Those appear to be assumptions made by his critics and unfairly ascribed to his comments.

          Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

            To be fair, shuny was simply quoting the article as it appears. It's just that nowhere in the article do I see a direct quote from Millar saying what is in the headline.

              It says he believed early voting would boost black turnout, which he said would happen if the hours were changed.

                Classic tactic of the fallacy when unable to respond coherently, change the subject and denigrate the opponent.

                  You don't get it, I could care less what the man said or didn't, but you are known for fudging the truth...

                    Still not seeing a direct quote referring to black voters.

                          Like posting a story from 2014 and making it look like it is somehow news?

                            No, really?
