White House Releases Sensitive Personal Info From Voters Concerned About Privacy (vox.com)
Huge_UID shares an article from Vox:
The White House just responded to concerns it would release voters' sensitive personal information by releasing a bunch of voters' sensitive personal information. Last month, the White House's "election integrity" commission sent out requests to every state asking for all voters' names, party IDs, addresses, and even the last four digits of their Social Security numbers, among other information. The White House then said this information would be made available to the public. A lot of people did not like the idea, fearing that their personal information could be made public. So some sent emails to the White House, demanding that it rescind the request. This week, the White House decided to make those emails from concerned citizens public through the commission's new website... It didn't censor any of the personal information -- such as names, email addresses, actual addresses, and phone numbers -- included in those emails.
Some of the emails also included the commenter's place of employment -- though at least one commenter helpfully informed the White House that their voter info was available at Goatse. But the voting comission is now also facing new lawsuits from the ACLU, Public Citizen, and the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, McClatchy reported on Monday, noting that "Trump's voting commission has told states to hold off on sharing the data until after a judge's ruling in a lawsuit."

You're making that up. The states don't have that information and everybody (but you) knows it.
John McAfee 'It was like that time I hired that Bangkok prostitute; to do my taxes, while I fucked my accountant'
That is a lie. The left has never made a claim of voter fraud. That particular accusation came from Donald Trump himself prior to the election. He had no proof of this then, and still hasn't.
The claims the left made were that Russia influenced the elections. The hacking that went on as part of this influence campaign happened prior to the election (the email server). There is some evidence for this influence, as witnessed by the emails actually being released on Wikileaks and Donald Trump Jr's disclosure of his emails which spoke of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump.
I'm pretty sure they're claiming the interfered through social engineering, not literally hacking voting booths, although some attention was given to that possibility given Russia's actual cyber espionage on that front.
Keep defending your boy though. Go team!
We can't have an intellectual discussion because you won't see what is painfully obvious to the rest of us: Trump is an unmitigated dumpster fire, who will do serious damage to this nation at best, and will set us back 100 years or more at worst.
When Kobach was Kansas Secretary of State, he made ferreting out voter fraud a centerpiece of his administration and conducted a two-year investigation. He found nine cases, mostly older Republicans.

There is no wide scale voter fraud. It doesn't exist.

You are welcome on my lawn.
It is supposed to be "White House Releases Sensitive Personal Info ______Of______ Voters Concerned About Privacy". Just because you are linking to an article which has a grammatical error in the title, doesn't mean you should keep the error. That is, unless the post itself is about the error.

Be angry at Obama for WHAT? The ONLY ones that were angry at Obama was the GOP who are racists and just want to hate for any and all reason.
The fact that he kept us from depression, addressed a number of issues, has done nothing but piss off you GOP types that wanted him to fail.
BUT you have to be a real fuck to defend trump and try to equate him to Obama.
good point. However, I had to mod you down for being a total idiot. There is NOTHING about Trump that says that he is putting America first.
He spoke about going after china for their dumping and subsidies, tariffs, etc. And what did he do? The same thing as you; suck on Xi cock . Of course, trump at least got some trademarks and will make millions for his family off those. All You got was a facial cream pie.
Then he said that he would solve the illegal issue. All he has done is go after a small number of ppl. THey are being arrested, but no more illegals are being deported than what Obama did. If he was honest, he would phase-in e-verify. So, you get another facial.
He is back to push the SLS, rather than commercial space, so, NASA will not be going to the moon or mars, though commercial space may, with other govs. God, it is just running off your face.
Dumb shit.
The GOP is no more Republican than is CHina or Russia. Sadly, you and the rest have more in common with Putin than Lincoln.
Objectively, if you look back at the Nixon administration, he seemed well liked. He won two elections in a landslide, and his approval ratings were decent. What ultimately lead to his undoing was his own insecurity.
The watergate investigators honestly believed Nixon had no involvement or knowledge of the burglary before it happened, which was based on the same recordings that ultimately got him into trouble. Where he got into trouble was when he found out that his own staff ordered it, and then he tried to cover it up.
If the Russians have information that Hillary is trying to hide, the American people should be demanding to know what it is, and thanking the Russians for providing it.
It's funny to hear this argument when every leak that is embarrassing to the Trump administration gets met with attempts by conservative pundits to redirect the discussion to finding and prosecuting the leakers. Apparently, demanding to know what Trump is trying to hide and thanking the leakers doesn't seem so important.
it is still collusion with a foreign power and treason to a high degree.
Are we at war with Russia? Or are they our ally? How is diplomacy with a foreign state we are not at war with treasonous?
This is beyond diplomacy, you do not have to be at war with a country.
A federal law, Section 30121 of Title 52, makes it a crime for any foreigner to contribute or donate money or some “other thing of value” in connection with an American election, or for anyone to solicit a foreigner to do so. Previous court cases concerning similar related laws have held, that a “thing of value” can be something intangible, like information.
