NJ folks: When the counties attempt to appeal Judge Quiraishi's decision, remember that they are doing so on the taxpayer's dime. They are using YOUR $ to protect a system a Federal Judge & the NJ Attorney General say is unconstitutional. #AbolishtheLine .

"Candidates on 'the line' are most often incumbents or party operatives, who in NJ are overwhelmingly white despite state’s 45% pop of color ... more difficult for candidates of color to win electoral office, negatively impacting fair representation." 1/3

. @georgiayouthco advocates for restoration of Early On-Campus Voting Sites because they are critical for students who do not have cars and who are ready to staff the polls and volunteer as election officials. We need more access to ensure the #YouthVote , not less.

Further on why this process must involve feedback + deliberation. *If* the law needs to be fixed, even in part, bring everyone to the table. Steamrolling for no reason & eviscerating key protections is plainly undemocratic. The process belies any arguments alleged for the bill.

Gutting OPRA is such a mistake. I’m speaking from experience when I say that 99% of OPRA issues are not from malice, but from clerks being overworked and undermanned. Give them support: more staff and better software, and nearly all issues go away.

From my timeline, @TIME 's cover from 2 yrs ago. Since then, #YouthVote boomed - 2020 was the 1st election in which the majority of voters under 30 voted; up 11 percentage points from 2016. @TuftsIDHE found that the #studentvote rate was 66%. Will Congress listen? #VotingRightsAct

Trump calling for an election delay on the day we lay Congressman Lewis to rest is pure disrespect and just more dog-whistle politics. But it will not distract us from our mission for a fair election. "We may not have chosen the time; but the time has chosen us." Rep. John Lewis
