As @ElectProject notes, the number of people flagged by exact match in 2018 is 53,000 (much smaller than 900k # used above, although still an alarming number) and they can vote with ID at the polls

"In Florida, about 1.7 million people can’t vote," explains @AriBerman. "You’re talking about 10 percent of people in the country’s most important swing state not being able to vote." ow.ly/nIgh30mhYuj

Races for Secretary of State are critical. They can enhance/decrease voter suppression efforts. Look at Kemp in Georgia-shameful. There are good/fair Democrats running for these offices around the country. Support them. Vote. @DemRedistrict motherjones.com/politics/2018/…

Despite rampant GOP voter suppression efforts, early voting turnout way up & favoring Dems. So the President of the United States is trying to scare people from voting. Absolutely deplorable

Remember when you lied about 3 mil voting illegally & shut down "election integrity" commission b/c no widespread voter fraud to find? 31 cases of voter impersonation from 2000-2014 out of 1 billion votes. Real scandal is voter suppression by GOP officials like Kemp & Kobach twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…

Republican control of state elections—particularly in places like Ohio, Kansas, and Georgia—has resulted in more voter suppression. This November, several key states can change that. @AriBerman, reporting on Democrats now running for Secretary of State. bit.ly/2yPTkw1

There is only 1 polling place for 27,000 people in Dodge City, KS, which is 60% Hispanic, & it's being moved outside of town, 1 mile from nearest bus stop. Happening at same time Kris Kobach, one of most anti-immigrant politicians in US, running for gov kansas.com/news/business/…

If you want to counter voter suppression elect secretaries of state who will protect rather than suppress votes motherjones.com/politics/2018/…

"Of the most common voter suppression tactics studied this year by US Commission on Civil Rights--voter ID laws, proof of citizenship requirements, purges, cuts in early voting & polling places closures--GA is only state once under federal oversight to have adopted all five." pic.twitter.com/kGtcViivd2

107,000 people have been purged by Kemp for not voting, making voting a "use it or lose it" right. "In 6 of every 10 counties across Georgia, black voters were canceled at a higher rate than their white peers for inactivity" @apmreports apmreports.org/story/2018/10/…

Kemp's office responsible for one of largest data breaches of any state, releasing 6.2 million voters’ Social Security numbers, addresses & driver’s license numbers. He's also done nothing to safeguard GA's electronic voting machines with no paper backups pic.twitter.com/xmPeJGoq8a

Kemp blocked 34,874 voter registrations in 2016, 75% were non-white. African Americans submitted 29.4 percent of voter registration applications but were 63.6 percent of rejections. "African Americans, Asian Americans & Latinos 7x likelier to be flagged than white registrants" pic.twitter.com/yrYSRCyOkV
