“Last December, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder told the Justice Department’s Office of Professional Responsibility exactly what it should find in investigating the department’s dismissal of a voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party:

Yakima Washington has been sued under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.  Election Law Center reported last year that threats to sue Yakima face legal problems. According to people familiar with the details of Yakima population numbers, Gingles One simply cannot be satisfied in Yakima unless non-citizen population is used.  Gingles One requires any proposed minority district to have a majority minority population within the confines of the district.  Only if non-citizen and illegal aliens are used, can a district be drawn where Gingles One is satisfied.  If a judge agreed with the plaintiffs in Yakima, it would have the effect of diluting citizen votes to benefit non-citizen populations.  Because of this, Yakima should aggressively fight the lawsuit and not settle under any condition. 

None of this is a surprise to the plaintiffs.  To the contrary, the lawsuit was concocted by Joaquin Avila.  Avila hails from academia and is a well known advocate for illegal alien voting.  If you can’t get them to vote, you might as well get them represented in government.  This is an extremely important issue that deserves national attention.  It is the beachhead for a legal concept foreign to American law, that illegal aliens deserve political representation.  It is a position that the Justice Department under Eric Holder has adopted in a case against the City of Irving (TX).  It received virtually no attention but was covered here at Election Law Center.

How Eric Holder and Barack Obama Squandered the Promise of a Post-Racial America

” . . . The other reason the left fears discussion about the New Black Panther voter intimidation is that it breaks up the narrative of the last 50 years – that only some races have bad racial actors and only some races are victims.  This is why Kristen Clarke of the NAACP has been so hostile to cases like United States v. Ike Brown and the New Black Panther case.  She is part of an industry that has thrived by a static definition of oppressor and oppressed.  At one time, her version of history was wholly accurate.  But men are not angels, and every race has bad actors. . .  .”

My latest at the Bigs on the New Black Panther dismissal.  A portion:

” . . . It is no accident that Loretta King, one of the central figures in the black panther dismissal, is also behind other nutty DOJ policies, including forcing the Dayton, Ohio police to hire cops that failed the test as well as signing a complaint to sue a school district for refusing to give 19 days of leave to go to Mecca.  King emerges as the engineer who regularly sends Holder’s Civil Rights Division off the rails. . . . “

Kansas City Star.  The bill passed the House 111 to 11.  A bipartisan bill obviously.  It means a majority of the Democrats voted for Voter ID.  This is a crushing defeat for all the forces that deployed to defeat voter ID in Kansas.   Enormous effort was made to stop this bill. They managed to find 11 members of the House who agreed.
