Jeff Sessions, 1985 Alabama Voter Fraud Case

A Frontline clip details a 1985 case where then-U.S. Attorney Jeff Sessions indicted civil rights activists Albert and Evelyn Turner for absentee ballot fraud in Alabama. The jury eventually acquitted them. The hosts use this to show the long history of legal battles over absentee ballots, which they distinguish from the "unsolicited" mail-in ballots used in 2020.
