Appeals court rejects Texas Democrats' bid to expand mail-in voting

Click:Hunter

A three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday rejected the Texas Democratic Party’s efforts to expand mail-in voting in the state, siding with the state’s Republican leadership. 

Texas Democrats were seeking to expand mail-in voting to all registered voters based on the argument that the state’s age restrictions for such voting violate the 26th Amendment’s protections against voting rules that discriminate based on age.

Texas law allows voters over age 65, as well as those with certain disabilities, who are ill, absent from their home counties or confined to jail, to vote by mail.

The panel ruled that “conferring a privilege” to some voters, such as the option of voting by mail to voters 65 and older, does not alone violate the 26th Amendment.

“A law that makes it easier for others to vote does not abridge any person’s right to vote,” the majority wrote.

U.S. Circuit Judge Carl Stewart wrote a dissenting opinion arguing that the law hurt younger voters by giving them less options to vote safely during a pandemic. In a separate case, the state’s Supreme Court ruled in May that the risk of contracting the coronavirus was not in itself a valid reason to allow mail-in ballots.

“The Texas Democratic Party will continue to fight in the district court for every Texan to have an equal right to vote, regardless of their age,” Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa said in a statement. 

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who litigated the case for the state, said in a statement that his office “will continue to protect the integrity of Texas elections and uphold the rule of law.”

Trump campaign sues Montana governor over mail-in ballot directive

The suit, filed by Trump’s campaign in the U.S. District Court in Helena on Wednesday, the Republican National Committee, the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the Montana Republican State Central Committee, argues Bullock’s directive is an illegal “power grab” by the Democratic governor, who is also running for Senate in November’s election.

“The Governor’s power grab under the cover of COVID-19 is particularly egregious. The Governor is running for U.S. Senate as a member of the Democratic Party and his race is one of the most competitive in the country,” the suit states, according to the Independent Record. “So he is using his current position to force a brand-new election system on Montanans that, according to his own party, will sway the election in his favor. This action cannot stand.”

The lawsuit also named Montana Secretary of State Corey Stapleton, who is a Republican, according to the Record. 

Bullock defended his directive in a statement responding to the lawsuit. 

“Voting by mail in Montana is safe, secure, and was requested by a bipartisan coalition of Montana election officials seeking to reduce the risk of COVID-19 and keep Montanans safe and healthy,” the governor said in a statement. “This is the same directive that the Republican President of the Senate and Republican Speaker of the House said was the right thing to do for the June primary. Today, we have many more active cases of COVID-19 than we did back in June.” 

He also said the lawsuit “appears to be part of a pattern of lawsuits across the country by Republican party operatives to limit access to voting during the pandemic.” 

A spokesperson for Stapleton was not immediately available for comment.

The Trump campaign has similar lawsuits filed against New Jersey and Nevada for planning to send mail-in ballots to all state voters, CNN notes. 

The Trump campaign also filed a lawsuit in Pennsylvania against the state over how it sends and counts mail-in ballots, but a U.S. district court judge last month halted the suit.

Trump has slammed mail-in voting efforts for months, making unsubstantiated claims that it leads to widespread voter fraud. Democrats, however, have largely pushed for an increase in mail-in voting methods in an effort to provide alternatives to traditional in-person voting amid the coronavirus pandemic.

RUSSIA JUST WON’T QUIT: Russian media and other groups are intentionally “amplifying” concerns around mail-in voting in order to undermine the 2020 U.S. elections, according to a report compiled by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and made public Thursday.

“We assess that Russia is likely to continue amplifying criticisms of vote-by-mail and shifting voting processes amidst the COVID-19 pandemic to undermine public trust in the electoral process,” DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) wrote in a bulletin sent to federal and state law enforcement partners. 

The findings were first reported on and made public by ABC News

The bulletin noted that the Russian influence efforts around mail-in voting have been going on since March, and that Russian state-controlled media and social media had been involved in this effort.

“Russian state media, proxies, and Russian-controlled social media trolls are likely to promote allegations of corruption, system failure, and foreign malign interference to sow distrust in democratic institutions and election outcomes,” the I&A wrote. 

Specific instances cited by analysts include Russian state media and proxy websites criticizing the integrity of the mail-in voting process throughout August, spreading claims in March that former Vice President Joe BidenJoe BidenTrump skewers Biden, suggests again supporters vote twice in Pennsylvania Sarah Jessica Parker helps launch ‘Moms for Biden’ in Ohio Trump called American war dead in French cemetery ‘losers:’ report MORE became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee due to a “back-room deal,” and that the February Iowa Caucuses were rigged to favor “establishment candidates.”

FLAG ON THE POSTS: Facebook and Twitter both took steps Thursday to limit the spread of remarks by President TrumpDonald John TrumpNetanyahu privately condoned US arms sale plan with UAE: report Trump denies report he called U.S. service members buried in France ‘losers’, ‘suckers’ Jim Carrey pens op-ed comparing Trump to Michael Corleone in ‘The Godfather’ MORE encouraging voters to test the system by voting twice — by mail and in person.

In a local TV interview in Wilmington, N.C., Wednesday, Trump suggested that people should vote twice, which is illegal. He then made similar remarks to a crowd of supporters at the Wilmington airport.

Facebook announced it would take down videos of the interview if the posts did not “correct the record” on voter fraud.

It also labeled a post from the president where he made a similar, although not identical, claim.

In the post, Trump said that voters should mail in ballots and then go to their polling location on Election Day and see whether or not the mail-in ballot has been tabulated.

“If it has you will not be able to Vote & the Mail In System worked properly,” he wrote. “If it has not been Counted, VOTE (which is a citizen’s right to do).”

As part of the policy update that Facebook rolled out earlier Thursday, the post was appended with a label saying that according to the Bipartisan Policy Center, “voting by mail has a long history of trustworthiness in the US and the same is predicted this year.”

The label links to Facebook’s Voting Information Center, which contains information about elections from vetted sources.

Trump posted the same message on Twitter Thursday.

The tweets, encouraging people to vote twice, were determined to have violated the platform’s rules about civic and election integrity.

FACEBOOK TO (TEMPORARILY) BAN POLITICAL ADS: Facebook on Thursday announced that it would ban new political advertisements from its platform in the week leading up to the November election as part of an effort to combat misinformation about voting. 

The step is one of a series of moves Facebook said it planned to take in order to “secure the integrity of this year’s elections.” The company additionally said it would remove posts falsely saying people can develop the coronavirus by voting and would attach “information labels” to other content attempting to delegitimize voting methods or the election’s outcome.

And in the event that a candidate declares victory before the final results are in, the company will add labels to the posts directing people to authoritative information, Facebook said.

Facebook has faced continual scrutiny since the 2016 presidential election over how it is moderating misinformation and attempts to interfere in campaigning and elections. The company has also faced continued criticism from Democrats over its policy that exempts political ads from fact-checking.

Evanina wrote that “Kremlin-linked actors” were attempting to “boost President Trump’s candidacy on social media and Russian television,” and that “pro-Russia Ukrainian parliamentarian Andriy Derkach is spreading claims about corruption” in regards to Biden.

GEN Z HACKS AGAIN: A 16-year-old high school student was arrested Thursday for allegedly orchestrating multiple cyberattacks that disrupted virtual classes for the Miami-Dade County school district this week.

Law enforcement for the school district, which is the nation’s fourth largest, made the arrest after tracing an IP address involved in the cyberattacks to the suspect, identified as a junior at South Miami Senior High School.

Authorities said the student admitted to orchestrating eight distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks aimed at the school system’s online distance learning platform and other systems. The student was charged with computer use in an attempt to defraud and with interference with an educational institution.

DDoS attacks involve an attacker attempting to take down a server by overwhelming it with traffic.

The district has been targeted by more than a dozen cyberattacks since the school year began Monday, which combined with a software malfunction to severely inhibit the ability of more than 200,000 students in the district to attend virtual classes.

Miami-Dade Schools Police Department Chief Edwin Lopez said in a statement Thursday that his department had worked with the FBI, the Secret Service and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in investigating the attacks, noting that based on the investigation he believes “other attackers are out there.”

DNA AND THE IMMIGRATION PROCESS: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced this week that it will expand its use of biometric data and DNA to verify family relationships during the immigration process.

The department said this week it will soon publish a proposed rule establishing new biometric data use protocols. Under the proposal, DHS would have the authority to require biometrics for any application or petition, a DHS official told CNN on Wednesday. Under current DHS regulations, biometrics are required only for applications involving background checks.

The new rule would give DHS officials wider authority for expanding technologies, ranging from voiceprints to iris scans, as well as technologies still in development, according to CNN.

“As those technologies become available and can be incorporated as appropriate, it gives the agency the flexibility to utilize them. And then it also would give the agency the authority down the road, as new technologies become available and are reliable, secure, etc., to pivot to using those, as well,” the official told the outlet.

The proposal would also eliminate any age restrictions for collecting biometrics. Under current regulations, collection is typically restricted to those 14 and older.

The department’s proposed rule would further allow DHS to collect DNA to confirm genetic relationships in cases where that is an eligibility requirement, CNN reported.

T-MOBILE CEO WEIGHS IN: T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert reportedly warned in a private Facebook post that Democrats risk losing the election to President Trump in November by embracing calls to defund police departments across the U.S.

Politico reported that Sievert wrote to friends and family in last week’s post that if Democrats “want to LOSE THIS ELECTION, we should keep saying and repeating the phrase ‘Defund the Police’ and associate the phrase with our candidates.”

“This phrase is a sure fire way to hand Donald Trump and many R’s in Congress another term,” Sievert reportedly said.

Sievert declined to explain his views further to Politico when contacted, and T-Mobile did not return the news outlet’s request for comment.

“[I]f the mantra becomes ‘Defund the Police’ or worse, if we start to riot and tear down buildings or incite violence in response, the other guy wins. THE OTHER GUY WINS,” Sievert reportedly added. “And the changes we want, and demand, don’t come about anytime soon.”

Sievert took over as the company’s CEO earlier this year after T-Mobile completed a merger with Sprint valued at $26 billion.

CDC says asymptomatic people don't need testing, draws criticism from experts

Click:mindfulness practice

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) quietly changed its guidance on Monday to now say that asymptomatic people do not need to be tested for coronavirus, even if they have been in close contact with an infected person.

The agency made the move by updating its website but did not make any public announcement or explain the reasoning behind the major revision. 

The guidance now states: “If you have been in close contact (within 6 feet) of a person with a COVID-19 infection for at least 15 minutes but do not have symptoms: You do not necessarily need a test unless you are a vulnerable individual or your health care provider or State or local public health officials recommend you take one.”

ADVERTISEMENT

That is a stark change from the previous CDC guidance, which emphasized the importance of testing people who were in close contact with infected people.

“Testing is recommended for all close contacts of persons with SARS-CoV-2 infection,” the previous guidance said. “Because of the potential for asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic transmission, it is important that contacts of individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection be quickly identified and tested.”

The move drew widespread criticism and confusion from public health experts, who said that testing to identify asymptomatic people with the virus is important and that the change could undermine contact tracing, a core strategy for slowing the spread of the virus.

“Without explanation, the @CDCGov made remarkable and troubling changes to their guidelines on coronavirus testing this week,” tweeted Carl Bergstrom, a professor of biology at the University of Washington.

“The most recent guidelines seem to give up any pretense of using contact tracing to control COVID,” he added. “The whole point of contact tracing is to find asymptomatic contacts of known cases and isolate them. If you aren’t even going to test them? Certainly no point in tracing.”

Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University, was more succinct in her tweet.

“Now what the hell kind of CDC recommendation is this? We need to be doing MORE testing, not less,” she wrote.

While the CDC issued the new guidance, a spokesperson for the agency declined to comment and referred questions to the Department of Health and Human Service’s (HHS) assistant secretary for health, Brett Giroir.

“This Guidance has been updated to reflect current evidence and best public health practices, and to further emphasize using CDC-approved prevention strategies to protect yourself, your family, and the most vulnerable of all ages,” Giroir said in a statement. 

He added that the guidance puts emphasis on testing vulnerable people.

“The updated Guidance places an emphasis on testing individuals with symptomatic illness, those with a significant exposure or for vulnerable populations, including residents and staff in nursing homes or long term care facilities, critical infrastructure workers, healthcare workers and first responders, and those individuals (who may be asymptomatic) when prioritized by public health officials,” he said.

In a USA Today op-ed this month, they set a goal of widespread testing to “be sure you and your child are healthy before she goes to school or you head out to work or to dinner or to visit parents or grandparents you haven’t seen in months.”

Identifying asymptomatic people who are infected is also important for contact tracing, the process of tracking down people who have been in contact with an infected person so they can isolate.

“If I have been exposed but asymptomatic, I am at heightened risk for being infected and infectious,” Bergstrom wrote in an email. “We definitely want to test me in that situation, and if I am positive trace my contacts.”

ADVERTISEMENT

He added that contacts of infected people are less likely to comply with requests to isolate for 14 days if they are not tested. “If we want compliance, we need testing,” he wrote.

“Many of us are confused by @CDCgov excluding people without symptoms from testing guidelines,” tweeted Natalie Dean, a professor of biostatistics at the University of Florida, pointing to HHS saying the revision was based on “current evidence.”

“But what is the evidence?” she asked.
