How did South Carolina respond to a US supreme court ruling that all white primaries were unconstitutional?
In response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in 1944 that declared white primaries unconstitutional, South Carolina attempted to circumvent the decision by adopting new strategies to maintain racial segregation in the electoral process. The state introduced measures such as literacy tests and poll taxes, which disproportionately affected Black voters. Additionally, South Carolina's political leaders and some white citizens sought to resist integration through various means, including organizing private political clubs to exclude Black participation. This resistance reflected the broader Southern strategy to uphold Jim Crow laws and maintain white supremacy in the face of federal judicial rulings.
