V-Day for Blacks

Re “Nov. 2 Is V-Day for Blacks in Florida,” Oct. 11: It was with embarrassment and sadness that I read your story. One wonders how many other groups of voters are ignored in this “civilized” world of free elections. We sound like a Third World country that needs monitors, not to protect from fraud but to ensure the same opportunities to all voters. It was interesting that on the same page as the end of the story there was an article about Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson supporting John Kerry. Could they work for justice in Florida?
