ATLANTA – Nearly 1,700 voting precincts in 13 states have been shut down since 2012, many  in black or Latino communities, after a landmark court decision that removed federal oversight of local voting practices, according to a new report. 

The report, released this week by the Leadership Conference Education Fund, showed a surge in poll closures after a U.S. Supreme Court decision in 2013 that gutted a section of the Voting Rights Act requiring certain states and cities obtain federal approval before changing voting laws or practices.

After the law, which targeted communities with a history of voter discrimination, was struck down, Texas saw 750 polling locations closed, Arizona lost 320, and Georgia shut down 214, according to the report "Democracy Diverted: Polling Place Closures and the Right to Vote."

Leigh Chapman, voting rights program director for the Leadership Conference Education Fund, said the mass polling place closures are a form of voter suppression. In many cases, she said, voters were not informed their voting precinct was closed or relocated. 

Georgia's counties saw a higher percentage of polling location closures than any other state. According to the report, Lumpkin County, a majority-white county in the north central part of the state, closed 89% of its polling places. Warren County, a majority-black county east of Atlanta, closed 83%.

The accelerated closures left seven counties in Georgia with just one polling place to serve hundreds of square miles.

When they can’t win on ideas ,suppressing the vote is their only option.
