thomas farr's nomination as a federal judge went down in flames today possibly in retribution for his role in zealously advocating for a voter id program the courts found racist and unconstitutional. something something chickens coming home to roost. a deciding vote was that of a black senator from south carolina.
jeff flake, retiring but not shy, was another vote.
today i had a very good hour long meeting with a reporter from indiana lawyer
about my voter ID case. i'm hoping for an article in a december issue, likely the 14th. i was covered by vice on hbo recently, but on a different issue entirely, a segment about medical research and human subjects.
farr joins a stellar cast which includes at least kansan kris kobach, wisconsin's scott walker, indiana's todd rokita. it is too soon to assess the long term electoral implications of pushing unconstitutional voter obstacles seen as a racist or classist or just anti-democratic [small d]. but it might serve as a warning sign.
