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.

Wouldn't we be a better country if only the smart people voted?

Oh, here we go: another media blog piece to fill in for where your own thoughts used to exist.

No, Trump isn't my hero. I just don't freak out, reveal my schadenfreude, and hate everything around me when I come across a tweet I do not like.

No hate in me, Trumptard.

Simultaneously amused and disappointed at the massive amount of willful ignorance, gullibility and sheer stupidity when it comes to this orange-skinned incompetent, pathological liar.

Don’t like my source? Then do your own fucking homework, lazy ass. You’ll find that the NYT, who Trump calls fake news, is one of the great newspapers in the world. From an idiot who admits that he doesn’t read. And you can’t see the incredible irony in that? Priceless!

Yeah, pally boy. That qualifies you as a true Trumptard.

Dismissed, cretin.

And as you can clearly see, the ones who protest and are not supporting the President are always angry and upset. That's no way to spend the day...

LMAO -- I was wondering if I went an entire day without responding to your snark, comments about me, and Fowl this and Fowl that if you'd be able to set aside your obsession with me and act like an adult. I guess not. I'm pretty sure that Phantasmal, Frank, and the others are aware that your badgering posts about "ignore lists" and "screenshots" are your way of trying to bash me -- as always. Remember when you first came here and pretended to have me on ignore, but quoted and referenced my posts in other threads? I don't do that. Why? Because when I have someone on ignore, they really are on ignore. Honesty..... a foreign concept to you and your fellow Trumptards.

You really should seek help, Toxic. This obsession of yours will be your undoing.

You are such a patriot. Yes, your all-day social media shares of pit bulls, black criminals, and the occasional missing white kid are Saving America! Your personal attacks and snark on an obscure politics forum are Saving America! WTG! USA! USA!

And as you can clearly see, the ones who protest and are not supporting the President are always angry and upset. That's no way to spend the day...

Ah yes. Much like you throughout the Obama era. I joined Amazon's discussion forums in 2010, two years after his election. You were in full swing there, Queen of the Nasty Girls. You gleefully bashed Mrs. Obama's looks, clothing, speech, projects -- as well as the Obama children. You bashed President Obama's looks, racial make-up, clothing, activities, speech, birth certificate, ethnicity, citizenship. Always, always angry and upset -- mostly because of your envy and anger that those amazing, educated, experienced, caring, and talented people are everything you'll never be.

You'll never be a Trump either -- but because they're white and (R) they're just swell in your book.

Good dinner last night. Great seeing friends that we have not seen in a long while. We all have birthdays during July and August...and exchanged gifts. I got a box of fine Churchill's that I am looking forward to smoking.
