I've read the Manchin op-ed a few times and what sticks out to me the most is that he doesn't offer a single substantive criticism of the For The People Act The closest he comes is saying its 800 pages but he apparently can't find one thing in the 800 pages that's objectionable? https://t.co/lKvZxzyPfX — PolitiTweet.org

9. As @propublica reported in April, Rudnick charges up to 80% commission on the money raised through his lists. Supporters think they are backing a candidate but most of their money is going to a consulting firm. https://t.co/92w1oiVq7T — PolitiTweet.org

8. Rudnick claims to have the ability to "target households and individuals who fall within a certain income range, geographic location, or psychographic profile" Of particular interest are "Doomsday preppers." https://t.co/92w1oiVq7T https://t.co/ZsLll02Ckv — PolitiTweet.org

@USChamber MANCHIN, TODAY: "Voting and election reform that is done in a partisan manner will all but ensure partisan divisions continue to deepen" THE CHAMBER, 4/13: "Changes enacted on a partisan basis are the most likely to erode access and security and undermine public confidence" — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin's justification for opposing to the For The People Act tracks closely to the talking points of the @USChamber The Chamber, funded by millions from major corporations that claim they support voting rights, is engaged in an aggressive lobbying campaign against the bill — PolitiTweet.org
