Look up your state in this chart and vote as early as your state’s law permits. Relying entirely on voting by mail puts you at the mercy of a Trump loyalist Postmaster General. Strategize. Outsmart the bastards. https://t.co/u2CjE0PhWR — PolitiTweet.org

3. Voters in those 34 states should ask the @ACLU to help them get injunctions to prevent that predictable violation of their rights, putting pressure on such states to adopt a postmark rule or otherwise cure the violation. — PolitiTweet.org

2. This means a state that doesn’t adopt a postmark rule violates the 14th Amendment rights of voters who aren’t assured they’ll receive their absentee ballots in time to have them counted by November 3 (cont’d): — PolitiTweet.org

1. Under O’Brien v Skinner, 414 US 524 (1974), the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause invalidates state rules that make arbitrary distinctions between voters who can get their absentee ballots counted and those who can’t (cont’d): — PolitiTweet.org

“The Claremont Institute masquerades as an intellectual salon of the right, but it is really just a racist fever swamp with deep connections to the conspiratorial alt-right.” https://t.co/IvTHuxnsA4 — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s see how many Trump cronies are ready to serve jail time to do his bidding by sabotaging the US mail . . . https://t.co/ScZZrdWy7X — PolitiTweet.org

“Americans heard a sitting president tell a national broadcast audience that his opponents are guilty of treason, & he expects DOJ to use the levers of power to target his enemies shortly before an election.” That this isn’t even news IS the news. https://t.co/6MJzgu89I9 — PolitiTweet.org

Great. If he does his job, of course, he can expect to be fired by Trump. But it’ll be worthwhile. — PolitiTweet.org

This is what an impending dictatorship looks like. Are you satisfied to just let it happen? — PolitiTweet.org

This is a red alert 🚨 Our future is at stake. Literally. — PolitiTweet.org

Very important. Thanks to @marceelias for this reminder — PolitiTweet.org

This gives each of those 46 states standing to seek judicial relief from an Article III court: it directly and immediately threatens their ability to have their legislatures perform their Article II function in accord with 3 USC. https://t.co/ciDDYoULOF — PolitiTweet.org

Each of these groups has standing to sue Trump and his stooges for undercutting the USPS. So do voters, candidates, and states trying to cast electoral votes reflecting their citizens’ preferences — PolitiTweet.org

The VERY worst? Even worse than Andrew Johnson’s, which tried to reinstate slavery? Well, . . . yeah, actually. Good call, @neal_katyal! — PolitiTweet.org

Credit where it might be due. Suspending judgment, but if this works out, Trump might at long last have accomplished something of note. Fingers crossed 🤞 https://t.co/V0IJOkW4oI — PolitiTweet.org

The Government Accountability Office has concluded that Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf & Acting Deputy Sec’y Ken Cuccinelli were invalidly appointed and are ineligible to serve in their current roles. Here’s GAO’s persuasive legal analysis https://t.co/vpWJmJ0Egz — PolitiTweet.org

Exactly! @JenaGriswold is spot on. Colorado is lucky to have her as secretary of state — PolitiTweet.org

So Trump is too dumb — and too coated in Teflon — to invent any plausible cover for his antiDemocratic schemes. — PolitiTweet.org

“He would rather shift blame to others or lie than use the powers of the federal government to set up a national testing and tracing system to address the pandemic.” https://t.co/mbkX1FYCvo — PolitiTweet.org

Vendettas against ousted regimes are dangerous — but letting the chips of blind justice fall where they may is cathartic and may be essential if we’re to move forward together in truth and decency. https://t.co/xptqvagNq6 — PolitiTweet.org

This 6-3 SCOTUS decision augurs well for the Court’s resistance to legally bogus efforts to make absentee voting inordinately difficult. https://t.co/D3yS3ZSvDv — PolitiTweet.org
