Dear Larry,
Yesterday, Hillary Clinton’s attorney filed suit against the state of Ohio, alleging that the state’s voting
laws have the effect of “burdening, abridging, and/or denying the voting rights” of Ohio citizens. And so it
begins…..
We’re
eighteen
months away from the presidential election, but the stage is being set
right now for a 2016 ballot box battle unlike anything we’ve ever
seen.
I can't sugarcoat this urgent request. True the Vote needs
your financial support NOW!
We’re building up our online
armory to support citizen engagement at the polls: poll watcher
training, our VoteStand election fraud reporting app, and a national
voter registry research database of over 170 million records. It is
incredibly expensive to support the programming needed to recruit,
train, and mobilize citizens in 187,000 precincts across the country -
but it must
be done!
In
1993, the very first bill
Mrs. Clinton’s husband signed into law was the National Voter
Registration Act, also known as Motor Voter. This bill created new rules
for voter
registration. It removed many of the checks that safeguarded against
fraud, while radically expanding registration efforts into social
service
offices. Voter registration was built into applications for driver’s
licenses, unemployment benefits, welfare, and any other
government-run public assistance program.
Flash forward - President Obama unilaterally decreed that illegal aliens should be given
driver’s licenses; because of Motor Voter, amnesty is now producing a burgeoning new voting bloc of noncitizens.
And it doesn’t stop there - Obamacare applications included voter
registration as a part of the enrollment process. Community Organizing “navigator groups” can just dust off their enrollment
rosters, because they have all the voter information they need to drive votes where they need them.
Think the political parties are building up election integrity programs for 2016? Think again.
In 1982, after a lawsuit was brought by the
Democratic National Committee against the Republican National Committee,
the RNC entered into a consent decree with the DNC, effectively barring
the
RNC from engaging in voter fraud prevention unless the RNC first
obtained federal court approval. The decree, known as the New Jersey
Consent
Decree, effectively ended the RNC's ballot security program. Although
the decree binds only the activities of the national party,
state parties were left to develop programs without any national
support. So, they have largely chosen to look the other way. I know.
It’s unbelievable, but sadly, it’s true.
That leaves
True the Vote and the American people to serve as the eyes and ears of the Republic and prevent the fraud that is headed our
way.
We
are recruiting
citizens, building technology and delivering training right now! We are
scrubbing voter rolls to help find illegals’ registrations - in fact,
our research was recently cited in a US Supreme Court case! We are
fighting back in the courts and against an administration bent on
cheating at the
polls. We need your help to keep at it!
I
try not to send out
too many requests for financial support. I get truckloads of requests
and I’m sure you do, too. Many times I find myself wondering whether
the organization does any real work other than raising money.
We do real work - around the clock - in ways seen and unseen. Right now, we are struggling to keep our heads above water, as
presidential candidates siphon billions of dollars from the pockets of donors.
Supporting candidates is important, but supporting voters’ rights is essential. If our elections
aren’t truly fair, we aren’t truly free.
True the Vote needs your help now more than ever before. Please stand with us by making a donation right now - and please
consider asking your friends to do the same.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for your willingness to take a stand. Together, we really can true the
vote.
Onward,
Catherine Engelbrecht
Founder, True the Vote
