Breitbart has the story.

“Something is happening this election that has never happened before. Tens of thousands of patriotic Americans are searching voter rolls for dead and invalid voter registrations. These same patriots will monitor thousands of polling sites, recording any deviation from legal procedures and standing as silent sentinels against lawlessness in the election. True the Vote and affiliated groups across the nation are leading this charge.

For this public service, vile dishonest elements of the Left and their duped surrogates in Congress have attacked them. A parade of shameless attackers have pushed a dishonest narrative about these groups. Among them are the Demos (a group funded by the convicted felon George Soros), Common Cause, and the Brennan Center at NYU Law. These purportedly non-partisan organizations have played an aggressive role in attacking Tea Party efforts to ensure that the 2012 elections are free from voter fraud.


The most dishonest and racialist of the attackers, however, is Brentin Mock at The Nation. Apparently, this magazine has no editorial standards for honesty and accuracy, else they would terminate their relationship with Mock.
 
. . .

But Mock’s inaccuracies aren’t just clumsy and small; they are also large and defamatory. They are racialist and malicious. Worse, some politicians have been duped by him.

Let’s stroll through Mock’s greatest hits.

Mock Myth #1 – “there are plenty of reports that show True the Vote has targeted neighborhoods that are majority people of color.”

There are also plenty of reports of Bigfoot and wood elves. All of these “reports” come from Mock’s fellow travelers who share Mock’s radical agenda. In truth, True the Vote monitors polls in every neighborhood. They have “targeted” (read: sued) two Republican-run election offices, including the Ohio Secretary of State. Mock cites not a lick of evidence for this assertion other than rumor and paranoia.

. . .

Mock leads an October 8 Nation story with the headline: “Are True the Vote’s Poll Watching Activities Illegal?” This is a deliberate effort to chill and deter political association and involvement. It is designed to threaten law abiding citizens with the fear of arrest if they participate legally in the political process and exercise rights under federal and state law.

Who’s suppressing whom?

. . .

Mock has even managed to push two politicians out on a limb with his dishonest attacks. Both Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Representative Elijah Cummings (D-MD) have fallen for it and sent accusatory letters to True the Vote. True the Vote has challenged the pair to attend their training seminars to learn the truth. They have even offered to meet with them and explain the True the Vote program. That neither Boxer nor Cummings have accepted tells you all you need to know about the motivation of the pair of politicians. As with Mock, myth is more compelling than truth.
