On October 21, Judicial Watch<\/a> posted an article about a preemptive strike on North Carolina’s requirement for voter identification in the 2016 election<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article obtained a copy of a letter from a lawyer for the State of North Carolina<\/a> to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (<\/em>NAACP).<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

…a speaker at a recent NAACP conference in North Carolina urged audience members to mislead the NAACP\u2019s own members into believing they do not need to register to vote in advance, or that they do not need to vote at their assigned polling place. Why?\u00a0 The letter alleges: To create confusion and animosity during the upcoming mid-term elections in North Carolina, and to use the evidence of that confusion in the ongoing litigation between Eric Holder<\/a>\u2019s Justice Department<\/a> and North Carolina and to show that North Carolina\u2019s election integrity laws are discriminatory. From the letter:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is also our understanding that during the [NAACP conference], Rev. Barber urged those in attendance to take unregistered voters to vote during the Early Voting period and to engage in get-out-the vote activities that included transporting registered voters to vote in precincts in which they are not assigned to vote on Election Day<\/a>, or words to that effect. The stated purpose for these activities, as I understand it, was to gather evidence for and thereby enhance plaintiffs prospects of success in the litigation involving [North Carolina\u2019s Election Integrity Laws<\/a>].<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why are liberal groups fighting so hard against laws that guarantee the integrity of the vote?<\/p>\n

The article at Judicial Watch details past and present actions on behalf of voter integrity in North Carolina:<\/p>\n

Judicial Watch has been actively involved in this sprawling North Carolina election litigation for the past two years. Judicial Watch has filed two amicus briefs in this case, one in 2013<\/a> and one in 2014<\/a>, supporting North Carolina and election integrity. On both occasions, we were joined in our brief by our partner the Allied Educational Foundation and by local political activist Christina Merrill.\u00a0 We also gave oral arguments and submitted an expert witness report to the trial court explaining that no one is harmed by these election integrity laws, but rather, these laws prevent fraud and ensure all Americans<\/a> are confident that election results are fair and honest.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If true, the fact that the NAACP\u2019s leaders appear willing to risk the confusion and disenfranchisement of their own members in order to deceive a Court about common sense election integrity laws speaks volumes about the intellectual bankruptcy of the left\u2019s arguments.\u00a0 The left\u2019s weak arguments also explain why the U.S. Supreme Court<\/a>, by a 7 to 2 vote, recently overruled<\/a> the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals\u2019 temporary injunction and held that North Carolina\u2019s laws comply with federal law and should be used during the November 2014 election.\u00a0 The litigation between North Carolina and the DOJ is expected to proceed further in 2015.<\/strong><\/p>\n

North Carolina’s voter identification law<\/a> is supposed to be in effect for the 2016 presidential election. It will be interesting to see how much of a fight the political left is going to put up to prevent North Carolina’s voter identification law from taking effect. The law is obviously needed (see previously posted video of James O’Keefe being allowed to vote twenty different times in North Carolina). The question remains, “Why is the political left fighting to preserve voter fraud?”<\/p>\n
