040124 Death in Damascus, Israel Press Ban, Wisconsin Gaza Protest Vote by The News with Paul DeRienzo
A member of a Togolese diaspora coalition is calling on citizens living abroad to turn out in large numbers on April 20 and vote out members of parliament who approved a new constitution without first holding a referendum. According to the Associated Press (AP), the new constitution approved this week gives parliament the power to choose the president without election. It also increases presidential terms from five to six years. This makes it likely that President Faure Gnassingbe would be re-elected when his mandate expires in 2025. Brigitte Akouvi Ameganvi, a member of the Board of Synergie-Togo, a Togolese diaspora organization in Europe, tells VOA's James Butty, President Gnassingbe should not approve the new constitution because it infringes on the right of all citizens to choose their president
"Elections are decided not only by those who cast votes, but also by those who don't." MSNBC host and Citizen board member Ali Velshi uses the historical context of Bush v. Gore to demonstrate that withholding a vote, or casting a protest vote, in a general election is a dangerous endeavor.
AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports a Democratic protest vote movement over President Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war is growing.
