On August 8, 2023, voters in Ohio will have a choice: Accept an amendment that destroys majority rule in Ohio and shreds the sacred principle of "one person, one vote" in our state or vote no on that measure to protect our freedom to make decisions that affect our lives and our futures by preserving the constitutional amendment ballot initiative rules that have worked well in our state for over a century. The choice is clear, but it's going to take every Ohioan working together to defeat this issue in the upcoming special election.

Last week, in episodes 74 and 75, I read the majority and dissenting opinions in the case Rucho v. Common Cause (2019). The majority held that political gerrymandering of congressional districts, as opposed to racial gerrymandering which is prohibited by Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, is a political question and thereby "nonjusticiable," or beyond the Court's power to resolve. But, the dissent argued that the Court had already held apportionment cases were indeed reviewable by federal courts in Baker v. Carr and twice upheld in Wesberry v. Sanders and Reynolds v. Sims - both decided in 1964. Collectively, these three cases are known as the "One person, One Vote" cases because they were concerned with ensuring substantial equality of voting districts when compared to the actual population. In other words, if a quarter of a state identifies with party A and there are four districts, party A should have one district, not three or four.  The Court in Rucho ignored the precedents established fifty years earlier in the Marshall Court's "one person, one vote" cases - in favor of reviving the even older precedents of non-justiciability under the Frankfurter Court.  Chief Justice Marshall thought today's case so important that, when he was later asked which case he was most proud of during his tenure on the Court, he did not say Brown v. Board of Education - he said this one, Baker v. Carr was. Because no kind of equality will last for long if it doesn't extend to the ballot box.  I'm still reading and recording this case right now, but I'm so excited for you all to hear it that I thought I would tell you about it now, before election day is over, so you'll be sure to come back and listen by the time I get it published.   Access this SCOTUS opinion and other essential case information on Oyez.

The right-wing loves yelling, “We're a republic, not a democracy!” Now they have a Supreme Court that agrees with them. The Court is about to hear Moore v. Harper, a gerrymandering case that will also take up the Electors Clause of the Constitution. The Republican legal argument, made famous by Trump's 2020 legal team, is that state legislatures can send their own choice of electors to the Electoral College, rather than abiding by the vote of the people. The implications of this are huge — the end of ‘one person, one vote.' Brian is joined by Steven Donziger, an advocate, writer and public speaker on human rights and corporate accountability. His most recent piece is The most terrifying case of all is about to be heard by the US Supreme Court. He also filed a class-action lawsuit with others against Chevron for environmental damage – including dumping 17 million gallons of crude oil in the Ecuadorian rainforest – and won a historic $9.5 billion judgment. Chevon then fled Ecuador and launched a campaign against Donziger that resulted in him being disbarred, serving 45 days behind bars, and under home confinement for 993 days.

Last month, the Government quietly tried to pass Tamati Coffee's Rotorua District Council Bill. When electing Rotorua Councillors, it would have meant a vote on the general roll would have been worth 39% of a vote on the Māori roll. Due to public pressure and the Attorney General calling it a breach of the Bill of Rights Act, the Government backtracked. Join Jordan and David Farrar, as they discuss how the bill nearly removed one person one vote in Rotorua, and came close to setting a dangerous precedent for New Zealand democracy. Support the show (http://www.taxpayers.org.nz/donate)

On this episode, we're picking up a topic we talked about months ago: Redistricting. Last time, we talked about the general process for redistricting, and we encouraged our nonprofit community to learn how the new maps would be drawn in their state or their local district.    This time, we're going to look at how the nonprofit community can advocate for their mission and their own community no matter the process in your home state, and regardless of where your state is in the redistricting process. We also wanted to lift up that historically, how we encourage voting or limit voting in America is also through the lens of discrimination.       Our Attorneys for this Episode:   Jen Powis   Leslie Barnes     Show Notes  How the census, which is required to proportionally represent an entire state's population, encountered a growing problem that politicians couldn't fix for decades.  How the Supreme Court in conjunction with citizen action in the 1960's addressed this issue, which resulted in the “One Person One Vote” doctrine.  How redistricting election maps works and how it differs by state.  Regardless of your state's system to draw maps, your nonprofit can play a vital role in protecting your community's right to vote and to participate in policy-making.  Current day challenges in redistricting include high population densities, whether to count undocumented residents or only US citizens, and questions on equity and race.  How some nonprofits are engaging in the redistricting process and how your organization can get involved as well.  What does gerrymandering and “packing” mean?  What are “communities of interest” and what is “contiguity”?  The importance of knowing the computer model your state uses to create maps     Bolder Advocacy Resources   https://www.usccr.gov/files/pubs/2018/Minority_Voting_Access_2018.pdf  https://americanhistory.si.edu/democracy-exhibition/vote-voice/getting-vote/demanding-vote/one-manone-vote  https://bolderadvocacy.org/resource/standing-up-for-your-community-influencing-the-redistricting-process/  https://bolderadvocacy.org/resource/mapping-the-future-the-redistricting-process-and-private-foundations/    Other resources:  https://www.ncsl.org/research/redistricting/redistricting-systems-a-50-state-overview.aspx  https://www.everycrsreport.com/reports/R45951.html  https://funderscommittee.org/files/Collaborative_RedistrictingGuide_2.pdf  https://www.fairdistrictspa.com/updates/pa-prison-gerrymandering  https://redistricting.lls.edu/wp-content/uploads/Basics-English10.pdf

Die Präsidentschaftswahlen 2020 waren hart umkämpft. Joe Biden konnte am Ende in einigen wahlentscheidenden Staaten einen knappen Sieg davontragen, auch weil vor allem schwarze Wählerinnen und Wähler stundenlang vor den Wahllokalen ausgeharrt haben. Freiwillige brachten Essen und Getränke vorbei. Doch künftig darf in Georgia keine Flasche Wasser mehr gereicht werden, die Frist für die vorzeitige Stimmabgabe wurde verkürzt, die Beantragung der Briefwahl erschwert. In den vergangenen Monaten haben 14 republikanisch regierte Einzelstaaten über zwei Dutzend solcher Gesetze verabschiedet, über 60 Vorhaben befinden sich in weiteren Staaten im Gesetzgebungsprozess. Viele dieser Staaten gehören zu den bei Präsidentschaftswahlen umkämpften Swing States, oft richten sich diese Gesetze gegen Wählergruppen, die traditionell die Demokraten unterstützen. Was genau besagen diese neuen Gesetze? Welche Auswirkungen könnten sie auf den Wahlprozess haben? Und was sagen die amerikanischen Gerichte dazu?

New Yorkers voted to adopt Ranked Choice Voting for some city elections. This makes New York City the largest jurisdiction in the country to adopt the method. High profile political players like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Andrew Yang say this will increase voter turn out and make people feel like their vote matters more. While others worry the method is too complicated for voters to grasp. For this episode of Prickly Politics, Professor Boris Heersink helps explain how the method works and talks about how he thinks it’ll affect future elections. We also talk to Josh Silver, the co-founder of Represent.Us, which is an organization working to spread RCV nation wide. And City Councilman I.

I was just reading the remarkable book by "One Person One Vote" by Carol Anderson, which I highly recommend. Also a great article by The Center for Progress listed ways voters were under attack. So, I decided to review the ways that voter suppression has been applied recently. During the 2018 midterm elections, voter participation was more than 10 percentage points higher than it was in the 2014 midterm elections, demonstrating Americans’ demand for change and increased enthusiasm for exercising their civic duty to vote. nearly 120 million eligible Americans did not participate. Voter suppression against marginalized groups such as African Americans, Latinos, and more is a reoccurring problem in the United States. Some voter suppression measures actively seek to discriminate against certain groups, others result from bungling and glitches. And voter suppression occurred in battleground states  including Georgia, Texas, Florida, and North Dakota. Even a few thousand votes can mean the difference between victory and defeat in competitive elections. In the 2018 midterm elections, according to Anderson's book there was Voter purges, voter ID requirements, voter confusion, intimidation and harassment, long lines and much more. The 2018 Mid terms exposed the ever expanding discrimination before and during that time. It is the duty of newly elected lawmakers at the local, state, and federal levels to enact affirmative policies that expand the franchise and make voting more convenient for all eligible Americans. Voter registration problems Despite efforts in some states to streamline the voter registration process registering to vote remains a significant barrier for many Americans. Finding out where and when to register, and getting paperwork, registering to vote can be confusing and hard. Minor spelling mistakes in Georgia, disallowed 53,000 voters -70 percent of whom were black—were placed in “pending” status.Then, those with pending registration statuses were still forced to prove eligibility, including U.S. citizenship, before voting on Election Day. Michigan had voter database problems. The list goes on! In some states, online voter registration, pioneered by Oregon, makes the voter registration process more convenient and drives voter participation because it eliminates the hassle of locating where to register, securing time off work, and finding transportation. In 2018, a lack of online voter registration proved a problem for Texans. In 2016, this was sued, however, the state’s appeal to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals prevented this from happening. Arizona had problems with poor online forms. Voter purges continue, especially after a June 2018 U.S. Supreme Court decision that validated Ohio’s process for purging voters from voter rolls simply for not having voted in two previous elections and failing to return a mailer. Voter registrants in Cincinnati's American neighborhoods were purged for failing to vote since 2012, compared with only 4 percent of registered voters living in the surrounding suburb of Indian Hill.15  The Supreme Court gave states a stamp of approval to manipulate voter rolls and keep eligible Americans, particularly people of color, from participating in elections. A 2018 report by the Brennan Center for Justice reported that voter purges were particularly prevalent in states with histories of discriminatory voting practices. Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp (R) purged an estimated 1.5 million people from the state voter rolls, which disproportionately affected African Americans, whose voter registrations were removed at a rate that was 1.25 times higher than for white Americans in some counties. Strict voter ID and ballot requirements Eleven percent of all Americans lack the kind of government-issued photo ID that these laws require, while people of color, low-income Americans, and students are less likely to have qualified IDs than other Americans.

The U.S. Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments in a case that could radically change how legislative lines are drawn in America. In Evenwel v. Abbott, the Supreme Court might order states to draw boundaries using voters instead of total people. This change in the rule could have a significant impact on the future representation of America’s fast-growing urban and suburban communities, and of Latinos in particular. In this candid discussion, experts and practitioners explore the implications of the Evenwel case, the tremendous impact it could have on the Latino community, and how other recent Supreme Court cases could fundamentally reshape the redistricting landscape.

Broadcast originally aired Monday, June 15, 2015, at 10:10 a.m.,"One Person, One Vote." Although this powerful sentiment rings with the same distinctively American call for equality and individual empowerment as "All men are created equal," it did not become a core principle of local government until the 1960s, when the U.S. Supreme Court ordered Rockland to reapportion and reorganize the structure of its county government based on the landmark decision in Abate v. Mundt.The Hon. Veronica DeMeo Boesch, former mayor of Airmont and a lifelong history teacher, was interviewed by  Clare Sheridan about  how "one person, one vote" affected government in Rockland County, NY in the second half of the 20th century. As a direct result of Abate v. Mundt, the county changed from a five-member Board of Supervisors, in which each town supervisor had one vote, to a County Legislature comprising legislators elected by the voters based on town population. Under the new system, the Town of Ramapo, with the largest population, would have the most legislators, and Stony Point would have the fewest.Since retiring from teaching social studies at North Rockland High School, Ms. Boesch has been an active member of the HSRC. She has also served as an elected trustee and, most recently, as mayor of the Village of Airmont. Since she rejoined the HSRC Board in 2014, she has chaired the Nominating Committee and Annual Dinner Committee and serves on the Personnel Committee."Crossroads of Rockland History," a program of the Historical Society of Rockland County, airs on the third Monday of each month at 10:10 am on WRCR radio 1300 AM (live streaming at www.WRCR.com.
