You found the story, and properly linked the the decision - which is a good thing!

But you provided no INFORMATION about the story.

Does this decision PROTECT and secure better voter security against vote fraud? Or does it promote and enhance voter fraud in the name of a democrat activist’s “voter access”?

Quote from the Slate link above:

With the consent decree gone, the RNC will for the first time in 35 years be free to begin anew efforts to spur purges of voter rolls and take potentially suppressive ballot security measures in the name of preventing voter fraud. No doubt RNC lawyers would advise against taking these steps, at least for a while, to forestall the DNC from running back to court seeking to have the consent decree reinstated.

But with Trump the real head of the Republican Party these days, it is quite possible he could order a national effort to combat phantom voter fraud, just like he did with his own campaign. Indeed, making false claims about Democratic and minority voter chicanery is a cornerstone of Trump’s divisive agenda. Yelling voter fraud riles up the base, helps with fundraising, and can depress minority voter turnout.

The Trump era has caused voting rights activists to be extra vigilant against efforts to suppress the vote, from Trump’s faux “election integrity” commission to the Department of Justice’s reversal of an Obama-era position against a particular form of voter purging in Ohio. But the removal of the consent decree could supercharge voter suppression efforts, offering Trump the opportunity to hijack the RNC and direct it toward his own efforts to explain away his 3 million voter loss in the American popular vote and rile his base against poor and minority voters.

Those seeking to protect voting rights have already had their work cut out for them in the Trump era. Things could be about to get a whole lot worse.

Paging the Boo Hoo girl

The following is one of the few twitter comments on the tweet:

So conspiring to steal an election with help from a hostile foreign power doesn’t constitute a violation of the decree? 🤦‍♀️ < end >

FULLY propagandized, that one!

Slate complains in a mocking tone of “phantom” voter fraud and the risk of voter “suppression”, in order for the RNC “to rile up its base”.

Cleaning up voter rolls by deleting names of deceased voters and unregistered or otherwise fraudulent or illegal voters is a common sense purging practice used by every other licensed institution in the nation, from your local utilities to the US MARINES.

Leftists are not stupid, they are domestic enemies of the Republic.

Just in time for DHS to tell the states to clean up their voter rolls or else!

This would be a huge development if the RNC had spine enough to take advantage of it. They don't.

Those concerned about voter fraud need to step up the quality and accuracy of their game.

Voter Fraud is rarely caused by the poor and minorities, eg rarely caused by illegal aliens.

Local Franchise members of the SWAMP commit most of the voter fraud. Patronage employees and patronage contractors get more government money than they are worth to the taxpayer. But they get more money for what they are worth to the middle man politician who controls the money.

The best example is HAVA itself. HAVA is controlled by Friends of Sen Chis Dodd. F O D give FREE MONEY to state and local election boards. Of course, that FREE MONEY must be spent on voter registration and election computer software and hardware companies owned by F O D.

Is F O D software designed to have the capability to easily identify valid vs invalid voter registrations? Or valid or invalid voter voting?

Someone needs to start with the source. Your tax money is your enemy.

if the RNC had spine enough to take advantage of it.

Trump has that spine. He was stymied by states on his voter committee and recently handed it over to Homeland Security. Heads are going to explode in RAT headquarters soon.
