“There are no longer blue states and red states. There are now authoritarian states and democracy states – Stacey Abrams, founder, Fair Fight Action
The flailing MAGA-Republican party along with their lord and savior Donald Trump, are doing everything they can right now keep as many democrats as possible from voting. This is their main strategy and the situation is urgent. Don’t believe me. Ask Marc Elias.
Tuesday Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate announced he is handing over our voter information, including partial Social Security numbers, to the felon in the White House. It was a “request.” It is not agreed upon that he was required to obey. He chose to. Don’t worry though. He consulted with Trump loyalist Brenna Bird and they both agree! So what could go wrong?
Iowa turned over its voter registration data to the federal government, including sensitive information such as partial Social Security numbers of the state’s more than 2 million registered voters, according to Secretary of State Paul Pate.
Pate announced Tuesday, May 5, that the state had acceded to the Department of Justice’s request for Iowa’s voter rolls. Federal officials have asked for such data from several states, ostensibly to address concerns about election integrity and illegal voting.
However, states, not the federal government, are responsible for holding and running elections, and other states have resisted turning over voter information to the Trump administration.
According to Pate’s office, the voter files provided to the federal government include names, addresses, birthdates, party affiliation, partial social security numbers and drivers license numbers.
The federal requests come amid a broader push by the Trump administration to impose new restrictions on voting..” – DMReg
Iowa needs massive voter turnout in November. Check your voter registration especially if you have moved since the last election or if you didn’t vote in the last election. Vote early. Vote straight Democrat. Volunteer with your local county party to register democrats.
