…lic endorsement from a minister, for instance, or partisan-inflected voter registration drives), then I think we have a problem. Obama, however, eager to court religious voters—and sending a clear signal early in the campaign that he will not cede the evangelical vote to the Republican Party—apparently sees no such constitutional complications in the faith-based initiative program he proposes.

By Michael J. Altman

…in the tornado. The Department of Homeland Security has ended a post-9/11 registration program that required Arab and Muslim men to register with the government, but not before tangling many Muslim immigrants up in legal proceedings. The Muslim Brotherhood says they do not want to enforce Islamic law in Egypt. What do Kentucky and the Netherlands have in common? An Ark problem. Holy shirking brains, Batman!

…il fraud. As the activities of ACORN have demonstrated, organizations that promote voter fraud have burrowed into every corner of our country. In Kansas, the illegal registration of alien voters has become pervasive.” I love the phrase, “burrowed into every corner of our country”—like it’s an alien invasion of bedbugs. But rather than address a real problem, Kobach is just using the issue to continue banging away at the demonization of those who d…

By Daniel Schultz

…ns are more actually more likely to be active in politics. They hold voter registration drives and letter-writing campaigns. They also talk more about politics in the pulpit. (They don’t generally make partisan suggestions in worship, though.) What risk is there to the faith of Democratic voters by engaging religion in partisan battle? Is that risk worth it?

Afterward, when asked why she organized the event, Ms. Shropshire took a different approach than at the mic.

…more, and where the margin to win the state is less than 2%. In Arizona, Maricopa County, which includes the city of Phoenix, is the target.

Think about it.” Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin complete AFPI’s “Tier 1” states, all of which are, again, among Axios’s six highlighted swing states. Florida, Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina comprise “T…
