@64 I think that it was a facile, partially accurate, and somewhat backwards way of saying that only since 1964 could you claim that the franchise officially extended to all non-white, non-male, non-property-owning citizens. And there are still so many exceptions, like felons who have served their sentences.
Of course, what "officially" constitutes the franchise does not even remotely match the facts on the ground thanks to all the shenanigans in red states.
