I read with interest the front page article concerning our attorney general\u2019s letter to the DNC regarding the violation of the state\u2019s voter suppression law (1\/9\/24). It stated, \u201csoliciting the NHDP or any other party to make such statements, (such as the primary being meaningless), constitutes an attempt to prevent or deter another person for voting or registering to vote based on fraudulent, misleading or on spurious grounds or information\u201d amounts to voter fraud. Really? We have listened to Trump and his toadies spout nonsense about how the 2020 election was rigged, about how voting machines were compromised, and about how ballot boxes were stuffed with fake votes. If that doesn\u2019t constitute an attempt to prevent or deter a person from voting based on fraudulent, deceptive, misleading or on spurious grounds or information, then I don\u2019t know what is! <\/p>\n
You can\u2019t have it both ways, Mr. Attorney General; you can\u2019t pick and choose when to apply the law. If the DNC is guilty of voter suppression for saying the democratic primary is meaningless, then certainly Trump and his sycophants are guilty of voter suppression for intimating that, because the elections are rigged, the voting machines are compromised, and ballot boxes are stuffed with illegal votes, there is no reason to vote unless you vote for him. Come on, Mr. Formella, stop playing political games. If you are going to apply the law, apply it evenly. That\u2019s what the rule of law means.<\/p>\n
