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...

قانون حرية التصويت يمثل خطوة كبيرة إلى الأمام

The negotiated framework in the Freedom to Vote Act represents a huge step forward for the people. It shows the Senate is working to find a path forward to get this landmark legislation signed into law. This legislation will strengthen our freedom to vote so that we all, regardless of political party, background, or where we live, have an equal say in the future for our family and community. The legislation leads to fair maps for Congressional districts and ending gerrymandering forever. It also makes important steps to curtail secret money in...

ABC News: Biden stands by Newsom, warns the country’s future is on the ballot in California’s recall election

Jonathan Mehta Stein, executive director of California Common Cause, a nonpartisan, liberal-leaning political advocacy organization, told ABC News that such claims should be expected.

"There will inevitably be claims that the election is rigged because the purveyors of the 'big lie' need these local and state elections in between the major national elections to keep up their momentum; but all of their allegations in the November 2020 election fell flat," Stein said. "There's nothing new under the sun here. And we assume that...

Sacramento Bee/Inside Sources (Op-Ed): Congress must make Constitution’s promise a reality

Constitution Day honors our founding charter, as amended. It celebrates an enduring commitment to freedom and a democracy where all of us are supposed to have an equal voice in the decisions that affect our country, no matter our ZIP code, what we look like, or how much money we have in the bank.

But from its inception, the Constitution denied democracy — at times violently — to whole swaths of people: indigenous people; enslaved people; Black people; women; the unhoused; immigrants; those who do not own property — the...

CNN: 2013 Voting Rights Act ruling could make it easier for states to get away with extreme racial gerrymandering

To analyze whether a map is Voting Rights Act-compliant, one needs to look at past election results, often at the precinct level, and not every state offers such information in a single database, according to Kathay Feng, the national redistricting director for the voting rights group Common Cause.
"You would have to go to each county, and each county would give it to you in a slightly different format, and you have to figure out how that all could be put together," Feng said

Facebook & Twitter Backing Off Election Disinformation Enforcement

A new investigation by Common Cause’s disinformation analysts has revealed that social media giants Facebook and Twitter seem to have backed away from enforcement of their own policies and enforcement practices when it comes to combatting election-related disinformation. The white paper, “Trending in the Wrong Direction: Social Media Platforms’ Declining Enforcement of Voting Disinformation,” reveals that the social media platforms appear to have dramatically scaled-back their practices of removing or labeling dangerously false claims...

"It appears that they would like to take over the county board of elections," Aunna Dennis, the executive director of Common Cause Georgia, said in an interview with Salon, calling the move part of a "coordinated strategy" that represents Republican "opposition to, basically, democracy." Dennis also warned that "whatever happens in Fulton is going to domino across the state" and that if this approach is successful for Republicans, other states with GOP-majority legislatures could soon follow.

"This would become a domino effect...
