Sometimes I'll tweet a bunch about campaign finance and voting rights and then wonder, why don't I have a million followers?

Californians deserve to know how their representatives vote.
“Allowing bills to die behind closed doors for reasons that are never made known runs contrary to the purposes of having an open, transparent & accountable government,” said @_jonathanstein.

GA Secretary of State confirms polls will stay open to accommodate every voter in line by 7pm, even at those locations evacuated. Police & dogs are sweeping the locations. The only question is how many voters may have left because of the bomb threats.

I shared some thoughts on how to build a more representative California democracy on my way to vote yesterday.
California Common Cause@CACommonCause
🗳️ Too many important, local offices are won in the primary election before most voters cast their ballot. We want to change that. Watch to learn how we can make our elections more representative!

I did ask a room of younger journalists recently if they knew the terms "blue shift" or "red mirage" and it was not commonly known as a potential counting dynamic (who knows how much it will impact the count this cycle, as tactics are changing). The counting is the key.

🗳️ This fall, the power to determine the future of our communities lies in our vote. Voting YES on Measures DD & LL will help ensure that the people run LA — not power hungry politicians.
Independent redistricting means fair maps, fair representation, & an equitable LA for all.

How well does CA ensure access for voters with disabilities or who don’t speak English fluently?
To find out, the @AsianLawCaucus and @CommonCauseCA dispatched more than 300 volunteers to 850-plus polling sites: cal.news/4diTWLR

Important to note that the GA AG just yesterday told the GA State Election Board that these proposed rules, just passed 3-2, "are not tethered to any statute—and are, therefore, likely the precise type of impermissible legislation that agencies cannot do."
Greg Bluestein@bluestein
The pro-Trump majority on the State Election Board in Georgia adopts a rule that Democrats and key Republicans have warned could spark chaos, could cause delays in posting results and is being enacted too close to the election. Expect more legal challenges. #gapol
