Ballot Security Task Force
The
National Ballot Security Task Force (
BSTF) was founded in 1981 in
New Jersey, United States by the
Republican National Committee (RNC) to discourage voter turnout among likely
Democratic voters in the
gubernatorial election.
The group's activities prompted the
Democratic National Committee (DNC) to bring a federal lawsuit, alleging a violation of the
Voting Rights Act, illegal harassment, and voter intimidation. The RNC and
New Jersey Republican State Committee entered into a
consent decree in 1982, barring them from engaging in further such conduct.<a href="

Yeap the republicans were cheating voters out of their rights to vote
So the Democrats SUED them
The courts agreed and forced the Republicans to STOP by constantly policing all their attempts to keep voters from voting
It was the ONLY WAY that republicans could win elections
So the republicans just trying to get away with this cheating
AND KEPT GETTING CAUGHT
they had to stay on that consent decree for 35 years because they kept trying to steal elections by cheating voters out of their rights to vote
Why did it end?
Because a REPUBLICAN was appointed to the chief SCOTUS member
That jackass said that racism was over in the USA because a black man was President
You got that right
He thought because we have a Black president that republicans wouldn’t cheat anymore and didn’t need to be watched anymore
The Republicans just kept cheating voters to win elections
