True the Vote Summit Coverage

Elections law attorney Christian Adams said the groups had pledged more than $100 million to three procedural issues: restricting spending on political advertisements, expanding voter rolls while blocking voter ID laws, and reforming Senate rules to curb the filibuster.


“Here’s what liberals do: they worry about process,” said Cleta Mitchell, a political law attorney. “Process, process, process.”


While Republicans are talking policy and politics, she said, “the left is always trying to rewrite the rules of the game.”


“Our side does not seem to understand this,” Adams said.


While the press tends to portray True the Vote’s efforts as a discriminatory solution to a non-existent problem, the group sees its efforts as a late entry into a field of law that’s been the exclusive domain of liberals for decades.


“For 20 years, (leftist) groups like Project Vote were the only people litigating,” Adams said. “Our side was too busy buying radio ads.”
