Attorney General Eric Holder is trashing attempts by Republicans to change electoral vote allocation in certain states, suggesting such efforts are part of a broader assault on voting rights.

Al Sharpton's National Action Network. "Let me be clear again: we will not sit by and allow the slow unraveling of an electoral system that so many sacrificed so much to construct."
