Democratic Push for Reform in All Fifty States Has GOP Frothing at the Mouth
by Deborah Montesano of Addicting Info, August 22, 2013
An issue we should all be motivated to get involved in is voter suppression, disenfranchising voters, and the hijacking of the democratic process. Addicting Info's Deborah Montesano wrote "The GOP may have out-foxed itself on the voting rights issue," and we should jump on it! With the Republican party fractured and able to do nothing but obstruct, they have a problem. Remember the "autopsy" by Chairman Reince Priebus after the 2012 election that said that the party's main problem was how they were reaching out to, and communicating with, people? He said they must widen their base and learn how to communicate better with certain demographics. . He said they had an initiative and would spend millions of dollars to go into communities to better communicate with people. How's that working out Reince?What with all the infighting in the party on immigration and a plethora of other issues, they seem to not be doing well with their goals.So, what to do. It's possible they had this discussion: Ah! we did successfully steal a presidential election, or two, what say we go that route? We could try to fix the vote! Let's enact voting rights legislation that will disenfranchise voters, block others and we could even go absolutely crazy like they are now doing in North Carolina! http://medic3569.blogspot.com/2013/08/republican-voter-suppression-must-be.html
Last week, a 50-state initiative was rolled out by a new nonprofit organization run by Michael Sargeant, the executive director of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee. The group takes back language co-opted by conservatives, naming itself American Values First. The intent of the group is to push voting reforms that will make it a whole lot easier for all who are eligible to vote.
