Conference of chief state judges file SCOTUS brief opposing ISLT


In a rare action, the conference filed a brief opposing independent state legislature theory in the upcoming Moore v. Harper case. If the Supreme Court goes all the way with ISLT, then state constitutions and state court systems could not constrain partisan legislatures in rigging federal elections in their respective states.

The latest Data for Progress poll of the Georgia Senate race is tied between civil rights activist Raphael Warnock and Trump-endorsed extremist Hershel Walker. Fascist Republicans will control the Senate if they take even one seat, so this is an all-hands-on-deck moment.

Our organizing campaign in 2020 raised turnout in Georgia by 11% among our targeted voters and directly led to Senator Warnock's upset victory. Can we count on you to rush a donation now to help turn out enough voters to break this tie before our last end-of-quarter budget deadline before the election on Friday at midnight?

Despite echoing Trump's lies designed to destroy fair elections, calling for a deeply unpopular abortion ban with "no exceptions," and being unqualified in every way to serve in the Senate, Walker has used his access to unlimited billionaire support to buy enough attack ads to keep this race deadlocked.

That's why we're investing significant resources in Georgia to defeat Hershel Walker and stop a fascist takeover of the Senate:

Can we count on you to rush a donation before our last end-of-quarter deadline before Election Day to help us implement the same voter turnout program we ran in 2020 that raised turnout in Georgia by 11%? Your money will be put to work immediately, so any amount is a huge help in this tied race!

We proved our collective power yesterday by stopping Joe Manchin's dirty deal. Let's prove it again by beating back Trump's fascist Senate candidates before it's too late for our democracy.

In solidarity,

Our Revolution

How Election deniers can subvert thousands of Democratic leaning precincts to rig future elections

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/21/opinion/republicans-democracy-elections-bannon.html 

This half hour video shows how Republican election deniers are being recruited as pole watchers, local election officials, county election officials, state election officials, including secretaries of State and how they could use those official posts to arbitrarily challenge votes and Democrat leaning precincts in order to create a mass of "evidence" a voter fraud.

First hints of electoral count reform from Jan 6 members


Liz Cheney (R) and Zoe Lofgren (D) will introduce a bill, and Steny Hoyer says it may be voted on Friday. The implication is that this bill will supercede the effort by Josh Gottheimer (D) and Fred Upton (R).

Crytpo regulation should not be left to rich crypto exploiters


Congress is considering regulating cryptocurrencies and committees are competing to hold jurisdiction so they can raise funds from billionaires and crypto companies.

"The rise of money in politics, in addition to the devastation it wreaks on our democratic system, creates incentives for certain elected officials to vie for certain committee seats, which they can then translate into campaign contributions from industry and corporate executives. In the fight over derivatives regulation [in 1999-2000], members who belonged to the House and Senate Agriculture committees discovered that they could raise millions of campaign dollars, not only from the stakeholders interested in traditional Ag committee work (like food and drug conglomerates and bioscience companies), but also from the businesses and billionaires with a vested interest in derivatives deregulation. As such, banks and other financial institutions were able to leverage and maintain murky regulatory authority to disseminate highly risky derivative products like credit default swaps–the same instruments that helped trigger the Great Recession."

Election deniers' information requests are jamming election offices


Workloads are mounting as election conspiracy theorists flood offices in urban areas with thousands of requests.
"Election officials say the vast majority of the challenges will be irrelevant because they contest the presence on voting rolls of people who already are in the process of being removed after they moved out of the region. Still, they create potentially hundreds of hours of extra work as the offices scramble to prepare for November's election."

House members drop electoral count reform bill


Fred Upton (R) and Josh Gottheimer (D) have introduced a bill. Although contents aren't fully described in this article, the bill is said to have drawn praise of Senate sponsor Susan Collins (R). However, members of House January 6 Committee are drafting a broader bill.

Lawsuite re: Arizona's proof of citizenship requirement

.... This brings us to March 2022, when Arizona Republicans passed House Bill 2492, requiring all voters to submit documentary proof of citizenship to vote in all elections. H.B. 2492 now requires election officials to verify the citizenship of voters who, since the 2013 ruling, have registered using federal forms without needing to provide documentary proof of citizenship or registered before 2004. Up to 200,000 Arizonans could have their voting rights stripped away, especially since it can be quite difficult to prove citizenship and millions of Americans lack the kind of proof the law requires. Six lawsuits, including one by the U.S. Department of Justice, have been filed against the new law.

A conservative interpretation discusses a range of areas where the two concepts might overlap.
