Check Understanding In invalidating preclearance provisions, what larger point was the Supreme Court making about voting rights?

History

The Supreme Court was affirming the point that states (not the federal government) should be in charge of the voting procedures in their states.

The Supreme Court decision you're referring to, which invalidated pre-clearance conditions, was Shelby County v. Holder (2013).  "Pre-clearance" meant that certain states, according to the Voting Rights Acts of 1965, had to get approval in advance from federal authorities for any changes they made to their state regulations regarding voting.  That standard had been applied to several states because they had displayed discriminatory practice in their voting laws.  The decision in Shelby County v. Holder held that the federal government could not keep applying that requirement on the basis of decades-old data.

I recently posted another answer on Shelby County v. Holder, which you can check out too.  Read more on Brainly.com - brainly.com/question/9069264#readmore

Why do you think the end of WWI was a failure?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

World War I was known as the “war to end all wars” because of the great slaughter and destruction it caused. Unfortunately, the peace treaty that officially ended the conflict—the Treaty of Versailles of 1919—forced punitive terms on Germany that destabilized Europe and laid the groundwork for World War II.

Why did the imperialists prevail ?
andrezito [222]
The imperialism prevails because it shaped not by distributing or transporting enormous numbers of refugees to settle and inhabit new lands, but instead by generating and producing political, military, and business structures that permitted them to govern and profit from existing inhabitants. This enhances imperial nations and formed new classes or types of people whose lives were molded by demands of imperial administration and business.
