More Politics In The Justice Department

Pajamas Media posted an article yesterday by Christian Adams (a former Department of Justice attorney) concerning the enforcement of Section 8 of the "Motor Voter" law.

The article states:

"Motor Voter struck an important balance -- it sought to increase voter registration, as well as ensure voter integrity. Welfare offices and motor vehicle offices became voter registration centers. But the law also required states to conduct list maintenance to ensure ineligible names don't pollute the voting rolls. Dead people, ineligible felons, and people who moved away must be removed from the rolls by state election officials."

The article further states:

"The decision of the Holder DOJ to ignore the integrity provisions of Section 8 is deliberate and corrupt. In November 2009, political appointee Julie Fernandes told the entire assembled DOJ Voting Section that the Obama administration would not enforce the list maintenance provisions of Section 8. Section 8 "doesn't have anything to do with increasing minority turnout," Fernandes said. "We don't have any interest in enforcing that part of the law." End of story."

What does this mean to you and me?  Motor Voter provides a private right of action--Americans can bring lawsuits against states and voter registrars who are allowing dead and ineligible voters to taint the voter rolls.  I don't know how many Americans are willing to do that, but there is also one other way to counter this problem (although not quite so direct) .  Voters need to vote out of office all people connected in any way to the Obama Administration--and do it by large enough majorities so that dead voters cannot make a difference. 

We need to vote Republican in November; then we need to hold the Republican's feet to the fire to clean up some of the mess in the Obama Justice Department.  Remember, any vote for a Democrat is a vote for Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.  Ms. Pelosi and Mr. Reid do not represent the views of America.  If you want to see Washington cleaned up, we need new people.  In all honesty, there are only about ten Congressman I would like to see re-elected.  The rest of them need to go!
