Anthony, as per usual, it is such a pleasure to be with you. Thank you so much for joining us and of course these are really urgent times. We’ve had presidential debates. After one of them we saw a candidate, the lead candidate for the Democratic Party, step down, that’s current President Joe Biden, and within 24 hours he had announced that he endorses Kamala Harris who is the Vice President.
But the thing that’s happening now, because that was all settled really more or less in 2021 and we haven’t had, you know, wide overhauls for the most part, but there are two kind of important things that have occurred. Which are, one, a sustained effort by individuals who want to challenge the eligibility of voters and go to local county boards of election and say I have this list of a thousand people who I don’t think actually live here.
We’ve seen this in video footage, we see it in photographs of the civil rights era, we knew this coming out of slavery and into reconstruction, we know it in Georgia given the amount of polling places that have shuttered making it more difficult, we know the Georgia laws that now deny people the ability to get a piece of bread or a cup of water as they’re standing in line.
And so, of course, that dynamic is being replicated everywhere, right? Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and Montgomery County, or you look at Michigan and you know the Detroit suburbs.
