Yesterday, Judge Thomas Schroeder of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina upheld North Carolina's voter ID law in a479-page opinion that carefully considered and analyzed all the evidence presented by both sides.  The court also dismissed challenges to other election reforms - more about those in a later post.

Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe is a former DNC Chair under President Bill Clinton.  As a former DNC Chair, he knows a thing or two about vote fraud and stealing elections for Democrats.  Last Friday, he took the unprecedented step of signing a possibly unconstitutional order (more on that in part II) allowing felons to vote in Virginia, including those convicted of murder, rape, and other violent crimes. 

If you skim articles like the one below in Politico, you would think that the RNC rules committee, and the entire Republican Party, was tearing itself apart.  Typical quote is (emphasis added):

Much is being made about the RNC Rules Committee meeting being held today.  RNLA will be live tweeting from the Rules Committee hearing.  However, it is important to note what the RNC Rules Committee is and is not. 

Automatic voter registration is being discussed in a number of states right now as a solution to election administration problems.  It is a recipe for disaster.  Fortunately two recent op-eds highlight some of the problems.  First, from a non-partisan perspective, Joanne Young focuses on problems with the Department of Motor Vehicles in a recent article entitled “The DMV has a Terrible Track Record of Handling Voter Registration”:

Democrats have been working to disenfranchise Republicans in many ways, whether it is by vote fraud or systems that enable fraudulent voting like automatic voter registration or same-day registration.  But the Democrat election officials in Harlem, New York, took it to a new level today.  

It is an ongoing tragedy that the left continues to promote a false narrative about Clarence Thomas and his confirmation from all those years ago.  The most recent example is the HBO movie Confirmation.  The extremes the left will go to are so ridiculous that they are even making a hero out of women who was fired for using a “homophobic slur.”  Some details on the “movie’s other woman,” Angela Wright:

On February 11, we wrote about Bernie Sanders demanding judges violate one of the most basic judicial tenants, bind themselves to decide a case in advance of hearing the case.  Bernie did this as part of his war of on free speech in discussing Citizen’s United.  

Since taking office in 2011, Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has fought to protect the integrity of elections in Kansas.  He created a system for citizens to report instances of voter fraud:

Senator and Judiciary Chairman Charles “Chuck” Grassley is a man of his word and a true Senate Leader.  He has not only kept to his promise of no hearing or votes until after the people speak this November regarding the current vacancy on the Supreme Court, he has also shown integrity in the face of partisan attacks and other pressure.  RNLA formerly thanks him in a letter available here.
