Original Note:
Most questions on this test are ambiguous (with several possible answers). This gave administrators an excuse to mark answers from black voters as incorrect, making it impossible for blacks to pass, even if they answered all the questions accurately. https://slate.com/human-interest/2013/06/voting-rights-and-the-supreme-court-the-impossible-literacy-test-louisiana-used-to-give-black-voters.html
