this shyt is disturbing.

i see pro-kavanaugh commercials every 5 minutes, where is the mass-messaging regarding this issue? is perez asleep at the wheel?
They're active on the ground. I was just at a meeting where it was a main priority for the NAACP as well. However, it's one of those issues that only receives 27% support from whites so it doesn't make national news.

Mainstream news doesn't have the resources to travel to each state to analyze the situation. As you see, MSNBC and CNN have to keep ppl in new york or dc because funds are tight - or they skype them in. Fighting voter suppression is also a lot harder due to the evisceration of local news outlets.

Think of how many times you've watched CNN and seen a panel of local experts or activists. Everyone is a "national" correspondent.

seeing a national campaign to make people aware of the issue is important too. get a top ad firm to make commercials of people getting denied at the polls, then drop a hotline or website to get people verified. this shyt should be plastered everywhere the way i see these pro-kavanaugh commercials of him kissing cats every two seconds. i wish that coward bezos would bankroll something like this or a guy like tom seyer would divert his attention to this.
