I think you did a great job explaining the reasoning of the court, but Justice Hugo Black's dissent could possibly be linked/cited, especially since you quote it. You explain that the case was also used as precedent for other challenges to the Voting Rights Act, and could possibly link to other such instances.

Also, the background information involving Attorney General Daniel McLeod has no citations. The injunction motion should be on record, and could possibly be quoted/cited. The background info probably needs more citations and fleshing out in general.

Your draft is off to a really good start. I like the places of the article you chose to elaborate on, as they could use some more reliable information for support. Since the last two sentences of your contribution speak about a new court case, they may fit best in their own section at the very end of the article. You might want to consider adding one or two more sentences about the facts of the new case so it is clear how and why it overturned South Carolina v. Katzenbach. Next, when you say, “This case was also used as precedent in other judicial challenges to the Voting Rights Act”, it would probably be best to explain some of the ‘other judicial challenges’ you mention. Otherwise, this statement had no citation to it, so it is difficult for the reader to know if it carries any value with it. There are just a few grammatical errors to proofread and fix as well. You may want to find a few more sources to support your claims, but overall, your tone is very professional. You do a great job of stating the facts and not elaborating on unimportant points.

The draft is a good start. Make sure to check your punctuation and grammar. You'll want to focus on the implications of the decision. What have scholarly or law review articles said about the case? What has been it's impact on the law or public policy?Cassell04 (talk) 01:05, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
