Washington Times on DOJ Civil Rights Division Hiring Policy



“Holder’s ‘severe mental deficiency'”

“You don’t have to have a severe intellectual disability to work at the Justice Department. But it helps. . .  But the policy states that the Cabinet department run by Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. must “achieve a work force from all segments of society,” which includes those who are teetering on the edge of sanity.”

Logan Churchill of True the Vote KO’s the Nation

Makes you wonder what sort of juicy general liability policy the Nation carries against defamation.  Ouch:

Logan Churchwell, Public Relations Director for True the Vote fired back at the comments made by the liberal reporters [at the Nation]. “This is yet another futile attempt to stereotype a movement made up of thousands of Americans, many of whom are retired teachers and veterans, as something to be afraid of,” Churchwell told Red Alert. “Our national network of volunteer poll watchers are armed with notepads and smiles, not nightsticks and snarls. Accusations of intimidation have proven to be illogical and without any objective evidence. Although repetition of falsehoods in the press has a tendency to shape conventional wisdom, the attempts by Mr. Berman and his ilk are only showing a diminishing rate of return. A growing majority of Americans demand election integrity through a variety of measures. True the Vote stands ready to help deliver, despite the needless nail-biting of 50 people chatting on a webcam.

Former Voting Section Chief Reviews Who’s Counting (and errors in another election book)

Read the review of Who’s Counting by John Fund and Hans von Spakovsky by a former chief of the Voting Section at the Department of Justice here at Amazon.  Also see what he has to say about errors in another election law book published by an academic press regarding overlapping issues:

“Readers who wish to obtain information about enforcement of voting laws in the United States have two recently published choices: Who’s Counting by John Fund and Hans von Spakovsky and Voting Wars by Rick Hasen. Who’s Counting gives an accurate depiction of the serious enforcement problems that have arisen because Liberal /Left ideologues in the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ have chosen not to enforce voting laws in a race-neutral manner. In addition, Who’s Counting explores and explains the voting processes that will influence and may play a decisive role in this year’s presidential election. The authors’ descriptions of voting fraud expose the shallowness of voting fraud deniers’s claims and make clear how voting fraud both diminishes voter confidence in the voting process and dilutes the votes of legal voters.
Because of personal experiences, I know that Hasen’s Voting Wars is not a reliable discussion of issues “

My Amicus Brief in Shelby

“None of the Above” is out in Nevada – unconstitutional

In a high-stakes election that could help determine the presidency and control of the U.S. Senate, a judge has ruled Nevada’s unique “none of the above” ballot option is unconstitutional and has to go.  U.S. District Judge Robert C. Jones ruled Wednesday that because the “none” option can never win, even if it gets the most votes, it essentially makes those votes not count.
