Which Georgian has had their voting rights suppressed the most? @TheDailyShow's @DesiLydic and @roywoodjr host America’s Got Suppression to find out.
Contestant #1 is @johntalsr, who had to wait in line for 11 hours to vote. Long lines are a key trick in the GOP's election fraud book. gregpalast.com/the-long-histo…
Contestant #2 is Christine Jordan, the 94-year-old cousin of Martin Luther King Jr. who's been casting her ballot at the same voting center since 1968. But when she went to vote in 2018, she was told there was no record of her ever voting in any election. gregpalast.com/92-year-old-ge…
BREAKING: We're suing the State of #Georgia for violating the National Voter Registration Act and wrongfully purging 198,000 citizens from the rolls. Our goal is to get these voters reinstated so they can vote in the Jan 5 #SenateRunoff election. gregpalast.com/georgia-lawsui…
Summary: The state of Georgia wrongly cancelled the voter registrations of voters because they supposedly moved—but they had not. Specifically, the state said that thousands of voters had submitted Change of Address forms—but the USPS says they did not. gregpalast.com/georgia-lawsui…
For those of you who wanted to see Donald Trump skedaddled from the White House, this is the week you should be celebrating #Thanksgiving giving thanks to Indigenous peoples for giving Biden the White House. gregpalast.com/gop-trail-of-t…
Indigenous voters provided the margin for Biden in Wisconsin, Nevada & Arizona.
Confession: I’m the one who suggested to Hugo Chavez that he buy a U.S. voting machine company. I was half joking that an honest vote count in America would produce a less bellicose government.
The idea was to develop a machine that would print out a ballot to put in a lock box to allow for a verified recount. That’s what they used in Venezuela.
But Rudy’s fantasy that Chavez could somehow sneak in some software that would wait around 7 years after Hugo died just to elect Biden, (who, btw, wants to overthrow the Chavista government) is a bit too sci-fi for me.
Under the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution, if no candidate gets 270 Electoral votes, the election goes straight to the House of Representatives. Nope, Nancy Pelosi does not pick the President. It’s one state, one vote. gregpalast.com/3-constitution…
Right now, Republicans hold 26 delegations, Dems 23 (there’s one tied). If Trump maneuvers us into a XIIth Amendment vote, we’ll be whistling, Hail to the Thief. gregpalast.com/3-constitution…
On Monday, our lawyers wrote a letter to the #Georgia Secretary of State, #BradRaffensperger, demanding he restore over 198,000 voters that he and his predecessor, #BrianKemp, wrongly purged from the voter rolls by erroneously claiming they'd moved. gregpalast.com/georgia-do-i-r…
We're going to make this easy for Raffensperger. Our non-partisan not-for-profit fund will arrange for the Postal Service’s official licensee, Merkle Inc., to contract with the Secretary of State's office to obtain the correct list of those who’ve moved. gregpalast.com/wp-content/upl…
We will also provide the massive deep files of the nation’s leading “address hygiene” experts. All this can be done in a matter of hours — if Raffensperger is sincere about wanting to reverse this wrong against voters. #SaveMyVote2020gregpalast.com/aclu-releases-…
