تحث المجموعات على إجراء تغييرات في التعداد السكاني لإحصاء أعداد السجناء بدقة لإعادة تقسيم الدوائر الانتخابية

اليوم، حثت منظمة Common Cause ومبادرة سياسة السجون مكتب الإحصاء الأمريكي على تغيير الطريقة التي يحصي بها أعداد السجناء في كل عقد من الزمان. إن استخدام المكتب للخصوصية التفاضلية، والتسريب المتعمد لمعلومات غير دقيقة في بيانات السكان، يؤدي إلى أخطاء غير ضرورية في عد البيانات التي يستخدمها المسؤولون الحكوميون والمحليون لإعادة تقسيم الدوائر الانتخابية. وفي رسالة إلى المدير روبرت إل سانتوس وغيره من كبار المسؤولين، أكدت المجموعات أن أعداد السجناء في المرافق الإصلاحية متاحة بالفعل للعامة وأن الخصوصية التفاضلية...

USA Today: Worried about voter suppression? Lawyers set up national hotline to answer questions about election laws

Common Cause Pennsylvania, a nonpartisan watchdog group and Election Protection partner, is hearing from voters who want reassurance they’re doing everything right.

“We are seeing such incredible voter anxiety in Pennsylvania that is really a result of a lot of the new laws,’’ said Suzanne Almeida, the group's interim executive director.

Almeida pointed to various election changes, including vote-by-mail available to eligible voters for the first time in some states, satellite election offices and deadline...

Associated Press: Census takers fall short of target goal in areas of US

Rhode Island is one of about 10 states projected to lose a congressional seat, based on anticipated state population figures in the 2020 census. It could take as few as 30,000 overlooked people for the nation’s physically smallest state to revert back to having a single House district, said John Marion, executive director of Common Cause Rhode Island, a nonprofit watchdog. 

The early conclusion of the census “is really going to stymie our efforts, not only to maintain that second district but also to have fair...

Under the Hatch Act, government officials are prohibited from using government resources to engage in partisan political activity, and from commanding other government employees to do so. Paul Seamus Ryan, a vice president at the government watchdog group Common Cause, said that if explicit communications surfaced linking the discount cards to the president’s re-election, health officials could face punishment.

“It is likely these are people who could face criminal and civil legal liability if they go through with this...

Jesse Littlewood, vice president of campaigns at watchdog group Common Cause, said emails and videos meant to make the elections system look insecure or suspicious follow a pattern of attempts to “shake people’s faith in the integrity of our elections.”

The problem is not exclusively foreign either, he added.

“We have seen some domestic bad actors use disinformation to create mistrust and it has had measurable effects,” Littlewood said. “These examples try to prey on and stoke people’s fear, and...

SCOTUS Challenge to Texas COVID-19 Vote By Mail Age Discrimination Draws Amicus from The Andrew Goodman Foundation, Equal Citizens, and Common Cause

Today, an amicus brief filed with the Supreme Court of the United States by Common Cause, The Andrew Goodman Foundation (AGF), and Equal Citizens  challenged the State of Texas’ age restriction to apply for an absentee ballot in the midst of a pandemic. The case, Garcia v. Abbott (No. 19-1389) challenges a law that restricts young Americans from accessing no-excuse vote-by-mail while making it exclusively available to voters over the age of 65. In their amicus brief, the organizations argue that the unequal treatment of youth voters in the...

“Putting all your eggs in one basket seems like a very bad idea—and it’s avoidable. We’ve seen what happened in the primaries,” said Sylvia Albert, the national director of voting and elections at the good-government organization Common Cause. ...
