发帖数: 6571 | 1 DOJ Warns Efforts to Stop 2016 Voter Fraud Could ‘Violate’ Federal Law
by Logan Churchwell 24 Oct 2016
A U.S. Department of Justice press release warns individuals who may serve
as poll watchers hoping to prevent voter fraud could violate voter
intimidation laws.
Upon first blush, what may appear to be a middling warning that voter fraud
and abuse will not be tolerated by federal law enforcement also casts a
shadow over various lawful election activities with broad language
apparently intended to caution individuals from performing their duties.
A statement initially circulated by various U.S. Attorney’s offices outline
several forms of election crimes to include “buying and selling votes,
impersonating voters,” and others, yet offers a blanket warning to
individuals that may hope to disrupt and document similar plots that those
actions may, too, “violate federal voting rights law.”
The DOJ comment specifically counsels against communicating with voters and
“challenging them”, plus the capture of still and video images is also
mentioned. The statement does not grant the varying distinctions in which
states may allow communication between voters and poll watchers, nor does
the DOJ note that some observers in specific states do indeed have the power
to challenge would-be voters based on documented ineligibility. As a point
of fact, some states—Missouri as an example—specifically call election
observers “challengers”, according to local statutes.
The lacking distinctions and threats carefully directed at the vigilant
voter do not occur in a vacuum. Though it is normal for law enforcement
agencies at many levels to share contact information prior to an election in
a “see-something-say-something” capacity, the national discussion spurred
by Donald Trump regarding a combination of concerns related to rigged
elections and poll watching further underscores the DOJ’s curious language
used to warn against organized election integrity efforts.
Despite Delaware U.S. Attorney Charles M. Oberly, III’s assurances that, “
Every citizen must be able to vote without interference or discrimination
and to have that vote counted without it being stolen because of fraud,”
the DOJ Civil Rights Division’s record of bringing violators to justice is
virtually non-existent in recent memory. The last voter intimidation case
brought was against members of the New Black Panther Party shortly before
the inauguration of Barack Obama after a video surfaced of a poll watcher
brandishing a nightstick outside of a Philadelphia polling place. The Holder
DOJ effectively dropped the case after the defendant defaulted on it. Prior
to that, the Justice Department in 2005 accused a black Democrat county
chairman in rural Mississippi of committing intimidating and discriminatory
acts against white voters.
The U.S. Attorney from Delaware explains that like seen in previous
elections, his office will be coordinating with FBI field offices and the
Voting Section of the DOJ Civil Rights Division to respond to voter
complaints. Concerned voters are encouraged to contact officials directly
with an online complaint form.

貌似GOP拼了也不能让死忠川粉去“监督”投票。
