[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The blame lays at the feet of GOP who pass these laws and YES, to Dems for not investing in state govt where these draconian laws start. News Flash! The federal government is not as powerful so many of you think. While we keep having the same argument about Nader, Bernie, moderate, progressives, the GOP have taken over the real levers of power.
Focus on flipping state govs in Nov. start with AZ, GA (Gov)  PA (gov), MI, & WI. Heck, I now think Beto may even have a chance in TX. [/quote]

You think red states are red.....because the Ds didn't put enough money there?

Have you heard of REDMAP? It was a program by Karl Rove, Ed Gillespie, and Chris Jankowski used dark money made possible by Citizens United, to reshaped state legislatures, where the power to redistrict is held. It's was incredible cheap and effective. Dems focused on having the first Black president and stopped investing in state and local races. So yes, yes I do.[/quote]
So in other words the GOP availed themselves of Russian and domestic dark money and you’re mad that the Democrats didn’t do this? I get it, I’m annoyed too, but let’s not pretend that everything was on the up and up with how they did this. [/quote]

Obama, Democrats lost close to 1,000 elected seats in local and state elections. They stopped contesting races, they didn't invest in the delivery system of information (cheap talk radio which is how GOP is getting so many Latino voters through Spanish disinformation talk radio. Until 2016 when Amanda Litman started Run for Something there was NO pipeline for candidates, no bench building, and certainly no party support. So YES, they are to blame because they STILL aren't doing this. I don't pretend to be an expert on this, I got politically active in 2016. But I saw that state races were ignored and they still are and these draconian laws start in the states so why aren't we investing to win there so we can fight back like Mallory McMorrow is?

Until Dems see GOP for the threat they are and ACT on it, they are partially to blame. And I am a liberal![/quote]

That is GREAT news. Getting any and every station and paper out of the hands of right wingers is a win. [/quote]
