Here’s how Republicans hijacked a bill designed to ‘Help America Vote’ — and used it to block people from voting by @Thom_Hartmann gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu… #HAVA #HelpAmericaVoteAct #VoterSuppression #ElectionFraud #RedShift
"While the goal of the Help America Vote Act was noble, it hasn’t worked out as planned. Instead, the most pernicious actors in the GOP have found a way to completely reverse the intent..." - @Thom_Hartmann gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu…
"The consequence is that America is the only developed country in the world where exit polls can no longer reliably predict election outcomes within minutes of the polls closing." — @Thom_Hartmann gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu… #ElectionFraud #RedShift
From the early exit polls of the 1950s until the 2004 election, exit polls were a reliable indicator of who won elections in the U.S., and news orgs frequently used to call elections even before all the votes were counted based on the exit poll outcomes. gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu…
But then this weird thing called “#RedShift” began to happen, starting in a small way in 1998 but exploding after the Help America Vote Act was passed in 2002. gregpalast.com/heres-how-repu… #HAVA
