No national emergency, no seized ballots, no troops at the polls. But the maps are redrawn, the federal election watchdog is gutted, mail-in voting throttled, and "the creation of a climate of fear is a goal in and of itself." The doomsday isn't the seizure of the vote. It's the seizure of the will to vote—so November never comes.

CW: USPol / US politics
So six Democratic congresscritters crossed the aisle to pass the latest defence spending bill - not that unusual, given their swing districts and being up for election - but they did so with the "SAVE" act attached to it.
Apparently, they have all the self-preservation instinct of the mythical #lemmings from Mutual of Omaha's Wild Fabrication. Because the entire point of the #SAVE act is to disenfranchise as many Democratic-leaning voters as possible. This isn't speculation; it's easy to read in the measures that it calls for, but more than that, #Trump has explicitly described it that way over the last few months.
The #Democrats frequently do not need the #GOP to ratf*ck them [1]; as here, they're quite capable of doing it to themselves.
Everyone who cares about preserving #US democracy, such as it is, needs to yell at their #senators to ensure this monstrosity doesn't pass in the Senate. There's been lots of talk of it not having the votes there, but that was said about other things that (eventually) got passed as well.
[1] Don't blame me for the language. A US president brought the term into wide use.

These two #Councils are my local ones, running my local #county, #Northamptonshire. I knew this sort of thing would happen if #voters here put #ReformUK in power, but it seems #Deaf people, & the #disabled in general, count for NOTHING, either with the voters, or the #Reform #politicians they've elected. These councils won't be coming up for re-election until May of 2029.

#SAVE Tool Keeps Mistakenly Flagging #Voters as #Noncitizens, Sparking Confusion for States
ProPublica and The Texas Tribune found that the Department of Homeland Security rushed out a tool for identifying noncitizens on #voter rolls while the agency was still adding data and before it could discern voters’ most up-to-date #citizenship information

This article has some great charts & graphs, showing the breakdown in early voters.
TODAY by NOON, checkins (including early votes) has BLOWN AWAY recent mayoral races, 1.2M votes total!
We will likely see totals which will compare w/ the record-breaking races of 1965, '69: 2.6M, 2.46M votes (81%!).
Early voters younger than 44 were a huge surprise this time...

In several #states, it asked detailed questions about the process to remove #noncitizens & other *ineligible* #voters from the rolls.
Grantham, the Fremont County clerk, said Small asked him if he would allow a third party to review whether his voting machines complied with #federal law. Grantham declined the request, he said, citing #state laws that restrict access to voting machines.

From 2022: #Redistricting In #NewMexico Has Systematically Diluted The Voice Of #NativeAmerican #Voters
#FarmingtonNewMexico has a well-documented history of #discrimination and violence against Native residents, and #VoteSuppression is part of the continued struggle.
by Aidan Graybill
Mar 24, 2022"In 1974 three #Navajo men — Herman #DodgeBenally, #JohnEarlHarvey, and #DavidIgnacio — were brutally murdered on the outskirts of Farmington, New Mexico by three white teenagers.
"In response to the murders, many advocacy organizations — including the University of New Mexico #KivaClub, the American Indian Movement (#AIM), and the #NAACP — mobilized in Farmington. The high schoolers responsible for the murders were sentenced to a few years at the state reformatory after closed-door proceedings. Many in the Farmington community felt this punishment wasn’t sufficient and multiple marches and protests ensued.
"Following a march in May 1974, a list of demands was presented to the Farmington mayor which addressed, “basic community problems affecting Indians, and calls for increased responsiveness by elected officials to these needs.
"While the clash between Navajos and whites in the community continued to rage, the city administration held open sessions and discussions for everyone in the community — Navajos shared their sweeping and ubiquitous experiences of discrimination.
"Whether it was high school students excluded from extracurricular activities, blue-collar workers harassed by their white employers, or individuals who were refused service at restaurants, the common themes of bigotry and racism riddled their everyday lives.
[...]
"Thirty years later, the New Mexico State Advisory Committee to the United States Commission on #CivilRights issued a follow-up report on civil rights for #NativeAmericans in Farmington. Then-president of #Shiprock Chapter, Duane Yazzie, noted that there was progress and improvement in the general social climate for Navajo people in Farmington:
"'Yes, there continues to be periodic problems but, for the most part, the efforts of the public servants, including law enforcement, the courts, the business community, and the major employers in the regions, there has been considerable advancement.'
"However, the same report also included other testimony explaining that there had actually been little progress since the 1970s, considering the lack of Native American representation in positions of civic leadership:
"'You’ve asked if change — you asked if change has happened since the early 1970s? Consider that question by looking at the numbers. Each community’s pillars are those that are elected as well as those that serve in the government structure.
"'If one looks at those positions in the local government, you will find very few, if any, Native Americans. It doesn’t matter if you look at the county, the city, or even local institutions. You will still find very few Native Americans in high-level, decision-making positions.
"'After 30 years, you would think the local governments would have made great progress in this area.'"

I’m trying to feel like doing my little part is enough. For the upcoming #runoff #GARunoff, I wrote and mailed 75 letters to #GA #Georgia #Voters for #VoteForward and #WorkingAmerica. I made donations to the #NewGeorgiaProject and #FairFightGA. I always wish I could do more, but it’s what I can do now. #CivicTithe #Warnock #WarnockForGA
