US judges strike down voter ID restrictions in three states

Judges have rejected voter identification laws in three US states, including North Carolina, Kansas and Wisconsin. Critics said the laws restricted voting rights for poor people and those from minority communities.

The North Carolina General Assembly "enacted legislation that restricted voting and registration in five different ways, all of which disproportionately affected African Americans," federal judge Diana Motz wrote in her ruling.

The measure, which was signed into law by North Carolina's Republican Governor Patrick McCrory in August 2013 was approved "with discriminatory intent," the ruling said. The new law required voters at polls starting 2016 to show photo identity cards, "which African American voters disproportionately lacked and eliminated or reduced registration and voting access tools that African Americans disproportionately used," Motz said.

The North Carolina voting law limited the number of acceptable photo IDs to six, reduced early voting and eliminated same-day registration. Supporters of the law said the restriction for IDs would help combat voter fraud, but critics, like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the NCAAP say the measure discriminates against minority voters and poor people, who are less likely to have drivers' licenses, for example.



Kansas, Wisconsin follow suit

Similarly in Kansas, which traditionally votes Republican, a judge ordered the state to count thousands of votes in local and state elections from people who did not provide proof of US citizenship when they registered.

The ruling was a response to Kansas Secretary of State Kris Krobach's proposed rule to prevent illegal residents from voting. But the judge's decision meant around 17,000 voters would have their ballots counted in the upcoming elections for the state legislature. Supporters say there have been few cases of fraud in the past.

In Wisconsin, considered a swing state, US Judge James Peterson ordered the state to quickly issue election IDs to people who were lacking required documents such as birth certificates. He struck down restrictions on early and absentee voting, saying they discriminated against blacks. He removed a prohibition on using expired student IDs for voting and on distributing absentee ballots by fax or email.

Voting standards in the US are agreed upon at a local level and come under scrutiny before presidential polls in the so-called swing states, where voters may choose either Democrats or Republicans. African Americans have been reliable Democrat voters, and party members believe the voter identification law may be a ploy to suppress their vote.

The latest rulings follow a recent decision by a New Orleans court to ease restrictions on the voter ID law in Texas, which critics consider

2002 New Hampshire Senate election phone jamming scandal


The 2002 New Hampshire Senate election phone jamming scandal involved the use of a telemarketing firm hired by that state's Republican Party (NHGOP) for election tampering. The tampering involved using a call center to jam the phone lines of a get out the vote (GOTV) operation. In the end, 900 calls were made for 45 minutes of disruption to the Democratic-leaning call centers.

During that state's 2002 election for the United States Senate seat being vacated by Republican Bob Smith, the NHGOP hired GOP Marketplace, based in northern Virginia, to jam another phone bank being used by the state Democratic Party and the firefighters' union for efforts to turn out voters on behalf of then-Governor of New Hampshire Jeanne Shaheen on Election Day. John E. Sununu, the Republican nominee, won a narrow victory. In addition to criminal prosecutions, disclosures in the case have come from a civil suit filed by the state's Democratic Party against the state's Republican Party (now settled).

Four men have been convicted of, or pled guilty to, federal crimes and sentenced to prison for their involvement as of 2008. One conviction has been reversed by an appeals court, a decision prosecutors are appealing. James Tobin, freed on appeal, was later indicted on charges of lying to the FBI during the original investigation

GOP Memo Admits Plan Could 'Keep Black Vote Down'

October 25, 1986|From the Washington Post

NEWARK, N.J. — A Republican National Committee official calculated that a so-called ballot security program in Louisiana "could keep the black vote down considerably," according to documents released in federal court Friday.

The documents and court hearing were the latest developments in a controversy over the GOP's ballot program that Democrats maintain is aimed at reducing minority turnout. The Republicans say the program's sole purpose is to purge ineligible voters from voting roles.

In an Aug. 13 memo the court made public Friday, Kris Wolfe, the Republican National Committee Midwest political director, wrote Lanny Griffith, the committee's Southern political director, and said of the Louisiana campaigning:

"I know this race is really important to you. I would guess that this program will eliminate at least 60-80,000 folks from the rolls. . . . If it's a close race . . . which I'm assuming it is, this could keep the black vote down considerably."





Unseals Document

She said in the memorandum that the program had been approved by Gregory Graves, deputy political director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

The document, called Exhibit 13, was unsealed by U.S. District Judge Dickinson R. Debevoise when lawyers for the Democratic National Committee said it was needed to question Wolfe.

Wolfe testified that she wrote about the possibility of keeping the black vote down to remind Griffith that there "might be a political situation he might want to consider. . . . I wanted him to be aware of the political considerations."

The Democrats are suing the Republican Party for $10 million, charging that the Republican National Committee ballot security programs--a method of assuring that voters reside at their listed addresses--violated a 1981 consent agreement signed by both parties.

Under the agreement, the Republican committee would "refrain from undertaking any ballot security activities in polling places or election districts where the racial composition of such districts is a factor."

Debevoise refused to issue a restraining order requiring the GOP to stop all similar activity.

Accepts Lawyers' Word

The judge said he accepted the word of Republican lawyers who told him all ballot security programs have been stopped, including an effort the Democrats say singled out predominantly black and Latino precincts in Pontiac, Mich.

In testimony Friday, Mark Braden, the Republican National Committee's chief counsel and the organizer of the ballot security program, said he repeatedly sought to make it clear to subordinates that "race was a factor that could not be used. I would instill the fear of God in them. . . . I'm not an idiot, this is a big press issue, and it's a big legal issue."

The committee's ballot security program was conducted in Louisiana, Indiana and Missouri. Before it became controversial, GOP political strategists said they planned to use it in other states.

'Insidious Scheme'

Louisiana state District Court Judge Richard E. Lee issued an injunction against the program on Oct. 14. In his order, Lee said: "This was an insidious scheme by the Republican Party to remove blacks from the voting roles."
 
Ninety percent of the racism in America today comes from the Democratic Party and the Left. They live off it and exploit it. It is unconscionable to the degree they do this, ruining the lives and futures of the very people they say they are helping in the process.

I am uniquely positioned to say this because I spent most of my life on the Left and was a civil rights worker in the South in my early twenties. I was also, to my everlasting regret, a donor to the Black Panther Party in the seventies.

"Republicans are racists" has been churning up overtime by libtards here. Here's a good summation of history as well as a slam-dunk on their whole "switched" theory.

https://www.billwhittle.com/afterburner/pin-tale-donkey-democrats-horrible-racist-past

Most blacks are Democrats because Democrats made them "victims." They still think the Democrats will give them that 40 acres and a mule.

Duopoly voters don't care about political history. The only thing they care about is "THEE PARTY." The party comes before the economy, the debt, the undeclared unconstitutional wars, the Drug War the Constitution and the country. Democrat & Republican voters belong to political cults. Just look at their candidates for the presidency. They might as well be named Larry, Mo or Curly or Capone and Baby Face Nelson.
