How the Provisional Ballot System in Franklin County, Ohio Fails Voters

LOL
Franklin County(Columbus) is managed by democrats and gave Hillary Clinton 60% of the 2016 presidential vote, topped only by Cuyahoga County(Cleveland) with 65% of the vote.
Hmmm   
In a state that is bright red( Trump won 18 electoral votes with 52% of the vote) it is pretty obvious that provisional ballots in Columbus were not a fatal problem for the democrats.
RUSSIA!
Oh, sorry.

This subject of the provisional ballot problems were studied and analyzed for the August 2018 special election in the 12th.

Sit down and be quiet.

.........................the law must apply with equal force to police officers of every color and origin. Similarly, the way in which jurors evaluate these tragic police shootings should never turn on the color of a victim's hair or skin. Instead, the critical inquiry must continue to be whether the officer reasonably perceived a legitimate threat to his or her life. And that must always be a color-blind assessment.


Each case is different - in ways other than skin color.

Bitch, please.

Que'?

”First we learned that Hofeller had been working with the Trump administration in its effort to add a citizenship question to the census in order to give a political advantage to Republicans and white people — an effort about which they have told repeated falsehoods to the public and even under oath. And now we learn that wasn’t the only piece of Hofeller’s work Republicans were likely lying about:

In 2017, after the Supreme Court affirmed that North Carolina’s GOP-drawn districts were illegally built around race, the state’s Republican leaders told a federal court they couldn’t quickly craft new boundaries in time for a special election later that year. They hadn’t yet started “the laborious process” of creating maps, they said, and still needed to talk to voters.

The court bought the argument, giving the state GOP nearly another year with a supermajority — an advantage it used to appoint judges and push constitutional amendments.

But a trove of once-secret documents from a strategist behind Republican gerrymandering efforts proves that argument was false, a watchdog group claimed in a Thursday court filing. In fact, that strategist, Thomas Hofeller, had already drawn up numerous maps and completed 97 percent of a plan for proposed state Senate districts and 90 percent of a House plan.”

  The poll comes as several states have pushed to limit abortions in hopes of getting the Supreme Court to reconsider the issue. Abortion-rights opponents hope the newly conservative court will either overturn Roe or effectively gut it by upholding severe restrictions. The survey finds that while most Americans favor limiting abortion, they don't want it to be illegal and don't want to go as far as states like Alabama, for example, which would ban it completely except if the woman's life is endangered or health is at risk.

A total of 77% say the Supreme Court should uphold Roe, but within that there's a lot of nuance — 26% say they would like to see it remain in place, but with more restrictions added; 21% want to see Roe expanded to establish the right to abortion under any circumstance; 16% want to keep it the way it is; and 14% want to see some of the restrictions allowed under Roe reduced. Just 13% overall say it should be overturned.   

13% - a figure to keep in mind when Scotus starts looking at some of these extreme state laws.

Which, of course, has no bearing on what SCOTUS looks at. Nor should it.

Can't tell if you are naive or a fool.

Probably both.

https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2019/05/epa-plan-end-funding-children-s-health-research-leaves-scientists-scrambling

Despite repeatedly expressing public support for children’s health, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is ending funding for a network of research centers focused on environmental threats to kids, imperiling several long-running studies of pollutants’ effects on child development.

The move, critics say, is part of a broader effort by President Donald Trump’s administration to downplay science that could lead to stricter regulations on polluting industries.

At issue are 13 Children’s Environmental Health and Disease Prevention Research Centers located at institutions across the country, from the University of California, Los Angeles, to Dartmouth College in New Hampshire.

Jointly funded by EPA and the Department of Health and Human Services’ National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) for more than two decades, the children’s centers study everything from childhood leukemia to the development of autism spectrum disorders. Grants to those centers have long been considered unique in the public health world for including funding for both research and public outreach.

Children’s health advocates have been worried about the loss of EPA support for the centers since at least 2017. That December, the agency’s Children’s Health Protection Advisory Committee urged then-Administrator Scott Pruitt to continue financially supporting the centers.

They are “a successful and effective model of multidisciplinary, community-oriented investigations,” committee Chairwoman Barbara Morrissey wrote in a letter. “The network of collaborating Children’s Centers advances the field of children’s environmental health more profoundly and significantly than what can be accomplished with individual studies.”

Four months later, Pruitt sent a brief reply that made no mention of future funding.

“I acknowledge the strong recommendation to continue financial support of the centers,” he wrote. “We will honor our existing funding commitments to the centers.”

More recently, a federal lead action plan from EPA and a number of government agencies described the research centers as “important resources.”

“In addition to conducting scientific studies on environmental health issues, each Children’s Center collaborates with various community partners and organizations to inform, advance and disseminate information for public health protection,” the plan said.

Republicans in Maine upset because the official state song isn’t nice to the Confederacy.

White people (in general) need to get their heads out their asses when it comes to the myth of the “Noble Lost Cause.”
