WILL THE RNC REQUEST A COURT ORDER TO ENSURE CLEAN ELECTIONS



WILL THE RNC REQUEST A COURT ORDER TO ENSURE CLEAN ELECTIONS?

Here’s why the RNC has been so silent about rampant voter fraud
Politichicks – Sonya Sasser – 1/18/2013

1982 Consent Decree bars the RNC from “engaging and assisting in voter fraud prevention unless the RNC obtains the court’s approval in advance.”

True the Vote also explains the two glaring issues with this consent decree:
First, the decree effectively robs poll watchers (and the ballot stakeholders that put them there) of their most important function: spotting and neutralizing attempted voter fraud. Indeed, poll watchers will mostly make note of procedural errors that could have negative impacts on voters. However, poll watchers also improve overall faith in the system when electors know that ALL of the rules are being enforced.

Second, the definition of “Ballot Security” sets an unreasonably high, yet undefined bar for what are acceptable anti-voter fraud operations. If the RNC wanted to execute a plan that prevented non-citizens from registering and voting, the courts would basically tell them to not press their luck. The RNC is effectively jammed: choosing between developing a system that the federal court and the DNC agree would be flawless or spending time and energy on developing issue ideas or get out the vote efforts. Time and money being finite, the RNC picks GOTV over “Ballot Security.”   

Quite frankly, the whole thing is a mess! The Democrats can basically commit voter fraud and get away with it — without the RNC ever stepping in to do anything about it.

However, in a phone interview with Catherine Engelbrecht from True the Vote, she said, “There are some important points that need to be made though — the main one being that the 1982 consent decree only effects actions of the national party, not state or local which is where elections and ballot security should be focused anyway.”

In other words, the solution to this problem is YOU. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 in particular, empowers all of us to fight for clean registrations and fair elections in our own communities:

Be sure to support voter ID requirement laws in your state.
