His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>A crowd of more than 50 local elected officials and prison reform advocates gathered Thursday outside the main gates of San Quentin State Prison demanding Gov. Gavin Newsom immediately reduce the prison's population, which has been rocked by a devastating outbreak of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Organized by a coalition of local social justice and prisoner rights groups, the press event featured emotional testimony from relatives of those inside the Marin County prison, as well as formerly incarcerated people and youth activists, who urged the governor to release those who pose little threat to public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/akhan1437/status/1277378429332025344\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you create a condition when you're just packing people into your prisons, that's bad. Period,\" said state Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/j3n21MfRT9Q\">who was joined\u003c/a> by other local leaders including Assemblymembers Marc Levine, D-San Rafael, and Rob Bonta, D-Oakland. \"But it's especially bad when you have a contagion that's killing people. It's not surprising that when you have overcrowded prisons, you're going to have a problem with COVID-19.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, \"This is a humanitarian disaster that is compounding another humanitarian disaster called mass incarceration.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Thursday, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/covid19/population-status-tracking/\">more than 1,600 of the some 3,500 inmates\u003c/a> at San Quentin have tested positive for the coronavirus, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11827695/pressure-mounts-for-newsom-to-release-vulnerable-incarcerated-people\">which exploded\u003c/a> inside the prison after officials transferred 121 inmates from the heavily impacted California Institution for Men in Chino on May 30 without properly testing them for infections. Until then, San Quentin had been virus-free. At least seven prisoners infected with the virus have died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/WayneFreedman/status/1281321810433175552\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, who met Wednesday with a federal judge to discuss releases, said his goal is to reduce the number of inmates at the prison by at least 400 in the next several weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's been incredibly frustrating that we had someone make the decision to transfer a few patients from one prison — Chino — into San Quentin,\" Newsom said during his Thursday press briefing. \"And that decision created the chain of events that we are now addressing and dealing with. I'm not here to sugarcoat that. I'm not here to scapegoat that. All of us are now accountable to addressing this issue and doing so in a forthright manner, and that's precisely what we're doing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, KQED's Tara Siler spoke to U.S. Rep. Jared Huffman, D-North Bay,\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>about the unfolding crisis at the prison located in his district. Below are some highlights from their conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: How would you grade the state's response to the situation at San Quentin?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Rep. Jared Huffman\"]'How did this system allow something so profoundly stupid in the middle of this deadly pandemic to actually happen?'[/pullquote]\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: The initial response obviously gets an F. I mean, there never should have been a transfer of those inmates from Chino without a test immediately preceding that transfer, and they were slow to step-up and address the mess that they created. More recently, though, and especially since my state legislative colleagues Marc Levine and Mike McGuire have gotten involved and Cal OES (Office of Emergency Services) has opened an incident command on site, I give them high marks. The problem is, by that time, we were trying to undo a terrible tragedy that had been inflicted on San Quentin and the broader Bay Area community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: And who do you think is responsible for this crisis?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: You know, I can't say exactly who, but obviously the prison health care officials who allowed this transfer to happen. There may be some other accountability within the system. You know that I think there needs to be a very comprehensive look at that. How did this system allow something so profoundly stupid in the middle of this deadly pandemic to actually happen?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: Is that something the federal government should or would look at in terms of a review of, you know, how this unfolded?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: Certainly, if this were a federal prison, the answer would be yes. Since San Quentin is entirely a state facility with state authorities, my guess is that that's probably the primary point of accountability. There's a federal receiver, of course, because of litigation. But that does not bring any federal agencies into play. That's simply a federal court who has ordered this receiver due to some longstanding litigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: You know, academics, public health experts, advocates and some elected officials have been calling for the state to drastically reduce the number of people incarcerated there, through early release, probation, parole and such. Do you agree that that needs to happen?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: I think their hand is being forced. You know, whether that needs to happen or not, it's going to happen. There's no other way to address the crisis. So, I think they're approaching it in a sensible way. At San Quentin and other facilities, they're looking at inmates who pose the least threat of some kind of violent crime, recidivism, are near the end of their sentences, are older, might be eligible for humanitarian release. And, you know, we can we can reduce the population pretty significantly using those factors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"more san quentin coverage\" tag=\"san-quentin\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: I guess what I was getting at is that, you know, the governor is doing some reductions of the population there, wants to get it down to below 100% capacity. But, you know, the advocates and these folks that are calling for more drastic, you know, more aggressive action, I guess. Do you think it needs to be more aggressive than what the governor is doing?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: I'm not ready to second guess the governor in this regard. These are very tough decisions. I mean, it's a balancing in every respect. And it's not as simple as just terminating sentences, especially in situations where people may be going to communities that aren't ready to receive them. We may not have the programs and the capacity to do a good job helping them re-enter society. So, in the middle of a pandemic, that becomes even more complicated. I'm just not ready to second guess the governor, I think, on that point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: What are you hearing from your constituents about this crisis? I mean, have they been reaching out to your office at all?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: Oh, yeah. I mean, when the numbers started to become known, there was an immediate sense of alarm, especially in Marin County, because, you know, our numbers are going up even without San Quentin. We have the highest per capita coronavirus spread in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so to think about this encroaching on our hospital capacity, our ICU capacity, our ambulance capacity, and there was a lot of alarm and it looked like it was on track to do that. So I'm very grateful that Cal OES. and others have really taken a bold response in the last few days to make sure that that doesn't happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: Following up on that. Marin has made a concerted effort to distance itself from the case numbers in the prison. Do you think what's happening inside San Quentin should be considered a county issue or county problem?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH:\u003c/strong> It's a state problem. There's no doubt about it. I mean, Marin public health authorities have limited ability to either prevent or to resolve a crisis like this is taking place inside a prison like San Quentin. So, you know, I think they've been working closely together. I know that our Marin County public health director has been onsite at San Quentin, like, almost every day for the last week or more. And that's appropriate. But no, this really needs to be a state issue resolved by state authorities. And you can't put the whole burden of a fix on this on Marin County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: Given this crisis at San Quentin and big outbreaks in other prisons as well, do you think this could galvanize major prison reform throughout the state?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: I think prison reform had a lot of momentum even before this. So I know at the federal level we've been tackling sentencing and other aspects of prison reform.

I mean, there never should have been a transfer of those inmates from Chino without a test immediately preceding that transfer, and they were slow to step-up and address the mess that they created. More recently, though, and especially since my state legislative colleagues Marc Levine and Mike McGuire have gotten involved and Cal OES (Office of Emergency Services) has opened an incident command on site, I give them high marks. The problem is, by that time, we were trying to undo a terrible tragedy that had been inflicted on San Quentin and the broader Bay Area community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: And who do you think is responsible for this crisis?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: You know, I can't say exactly who, but obviously the prison health care officials who allowed this transfer to happen. There may be some other accountability within the system. You know that I think there needs to be a very comprehensive look at that. How did this system allow something so profoundly stupid in the middle of this deadly pandemic to actually happen?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: Is that something the federal government should or would look at in terms of a review of, you know, how this unfolded?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: Certainly, if this were a federal prison, the answer would be yes. Since San Quentin is entirely a state facility with state authorities, my guess is that that's probably the primary point of accountability. There's a federal receiver, of course, because of litigation. But that does not bring any federal agencies into play. That's simply a federal court who has ordered this receiver due to some longstanding litigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: You know, academics, public health experts, advocates and some elected officials have been calling for the state to drastically reduce the number of people incarcerated there, through early release, probation, parole and such. Do you agree that that needs to happen?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: I think their hand is being forced. You know, whether that needs to happen or not, it's going to happen. There's no other way to address the crisis. So, I think they're approaching it in a sensible way. At San Quentin and other facilities, they're looking at inmates who pose the least threat of some kind of violent crime, recidivism, are near the end of their sentences, are older, might be eligible for humanitarian release. And, you know, we can we can reduce the population pretty significantly using those factors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But, you know, the advocates and these folks that are calling for more drastic, you know, more aggressive action, I guess. Do you think it needs to be more aggressive than what the governor is doing?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: I'm not ready to second guess the governor in this regard. These are very tough decisions. I mean, it's a balancing in every respect. And it's not as simple as just terminating sentences, especially in situations where people may be going to communities that aren't ready to receive them. We may not have the programs and the capacity to do a good job helping them re-enter society. So, in the middle of a pandemic, that becomes even more complicated. I'm just not ready to second guess the governor, I think, on that point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: What are you hearing from your constituents about this crisis? I mean, have they been reaching out to your office at all?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH\u003c/strong>: Oh, yeah. I mean, when the numbers started to become known, there was an immediate sense of alarm, especially in Marin County, because, you know, our numbers are going up even without San Quentin. We have the highest per capita coronavirus spread in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And so to think about this encroaching on our hospital capacity, our ICU capacity, our ambulance capacity, and there was a lot of alarm and it looked like it was on track to do that. So I'm very grateful that Cal OES. and others have really taken a bold response in the last few days to make sure that that doesn't happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KQED\u003c/strong>: Following up on that. Marin has made a concerted effort to distance itself from the case numbers in the prison. Do you think what's happening inside San Quentin should be considered a county issue or county problem?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>JH:\u003c/strong> It's a state problem. There's no doubt about it. I mean, Marin public health authorities have limited ability to either prevent or to resolve a crisis like this is taking place inside a prison like San Quentin. So, you know, I think they've been working closely together. I know that our Marin County public health director has been onsite at San Quentin, like, almost every day for the last week or more. And that's appropriate. But no, this really needs to be a state issue resolved by state authorities. And you can't put the whole burden of a fix on this on Marin County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Instead, council members voted to suspend Rafferty without pay for 15 shifts, and to strip her of training and supervision duties. Wages for those shifts will be withheld from her back pay, the City Council decided, which will otherwise include the bulk of last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rafferty can still fight the downgraded discipline decision, and has 90 days to file an appeal in Solano County Superior Court. Her attorney did not immediately respond to requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom and other state officials to release more inmates to reduce the spread of the coronavirus inside California's prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pressure mounts as incarcerated people from San Quentin State Prison continue to be hospitalized and die due to COVID-19 complications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During an emergency hearing Monday, U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar expressed appreciation to Newsom for the expedited releases he has granted, acknowledging that they are not “politically popular.” However, Tigar stressed that incarcerated people are still dying and there is a looming threat of more outbreaks across the state. [aside tag=\"san-quentin\" label=\"more related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I do not expect, ever, to hear any public health guidance to the contrary of the point that it is impossible to adequately respond to this disease without inmate release,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outbreak at San Quentin is the largest in the state prison system. About 1,400 people incarcerated there \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/covid19/population-status-tracking/\">have tested positive\u003c/a>, and 62 are being treated at outside hospitals across the Bay Area. Several inmates have died from complications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are currently about 113,000 people in prisons across the state. Officials have released 3,500 people since March through an expedited parole process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During his press conference Monday, Newsom said that addressing the outbreak at San Quentin is one of his top priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I'm going through individual-by-individual people with medical needs that are acute,” he said. “We are fast-tracking, expediting parole review and individually reviewing those cases in order to move people forward”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor also acknowledged that the transfer of 121 people from the California Institution for Men in Chino to San Quentin — widely believed to have caused the outbreak — was a mistake. [ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said his office is working with probation and parole officers to identify adequate housing for people who are released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Judge Tigar is not permitted to grant releases on his own, Don Specter, the lawyer representing incarcerated people in a longstanding lawsuit over prison health care, asked the judge to once again consider convening a three-judge panel, which would be able to grant more releases.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated Tuesday, July 7, 12:00 p.m.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of state lawmakers called on Gov. Gavin Newsom Monday to stop California prison officials from transferring people to federal immigration detention during the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O2z1Wc3GoEhkCGQuNkLKLoA-7fC35MgP/view\">letter\u003c/a> signed by 44 members of the state Senate and Assembly — as well as 18 local elected officials, including Mayor Libby Schaaf of Oakland and Mayor Michael Tubbs of Stockton — the political leaders said ending the transfers is urgently needed to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 between detention systems in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the health of Californians in custody is at risk, that puts the health of all Californians at risk,” said Assemblyman Rob Bonta, an Oakland Democrat leading the effort. “Once a Californian has paid their debt to society … they’ve earned their release from state prison or a jail, they should be released back to their community, back to their family, and not be funneled into Trump’s deportation machine … where they can be sent to circumstances where their health and life are put at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The request came as COVID-19 is raging through both the California prison system and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities. In California, as of Monday, a total of \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/covid19/population-status-tracking/\">5,346 people in the state prison system\u003c/a> and 949 state prison staff have been diagnosed with the virus. In addition, \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/coronavirus\">2,742 people in ICE detention\u003c/a> have tested positive for COVID-19, along with 45 ICE employees — and scores of private prison workers — at detention centers nationally, including more than 200 people who have been sickened at ICE facilities in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Non-citizen immigrants, even those with longstanding, legal permanent residence, can be subject to deportation if they have a criminal record. Immigration officials commonly issue a “detainer,” requesting that prison officials notify them when an incarcerated immigrant is set to be released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"california-state-prison\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week Ralph Diaz, the head of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, said in a state Senate hearing that his agency does inform ICE of incarcerated immigrants’ release dates, and coordinates a transfer to ICE agents who take the person into custody. He said he had no plan to end the practice, which he said was the same way that CDCR responds to a hold placed by any other law enforcement agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in their letter to Newsom, Bonta and the other lawmakers said California is under no legal obligation to assist the federal government with deportations, and the governor and CDCR can end the policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s office did not respond to a request for comment by press time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant advocates said Monday that transfers from CDCR are the primary way that people are being taken into ICE custody in California since the start of the pandemic. CDCR transferred 575 people to ICE between Jan. 1 to May 13, according to Angela Chan, policy director for the San Francisco-based Asian Law Caucus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chan said she is aware of only one instance this year in which a person was released from state prison and not picked up by ICE — that’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11827388/cambodian-refugee-leaves-san-quentin-with-covid-19-but-avoids-ice-detention\">the case of Chanthon Bun\u003c/a>, a Cambodian refugee who was set free from San Quentin State Prison last week after earning early parole, having served 23 years of a 49-year sentence for an armed robbery he committed as a teenager.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the day of his release, Bun went for a COVID-19 test and found out he had been infected inside the prison. If he had been transferred to ICE custody, he would have taken the virus with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chan said Bun’s legal team at the Asian Law Caucus is still trying to learn why Bun was not transferred to ICE, even though the agency had a detainer to arrest him. ICE officials did not answer a request for an explanation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=about_15238 label='Take Our Survey']However in response to the call by California lawmakers for prisons to stop cooperating with the immigration agency, ICE spokeswoman Paige Hughes released this statement: “Policy makers who strive to make it more difficult to remove dangerous criminal aliens and aim to stop the cooperation of local officials and business partners, harm the very communities whose welfare they have sworn to protect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE maintains that the safest place to take immigrants into custody is inside a locked facility of another law enforcement agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta disputed that notion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think when they say ‘safe,’ they mean ‘easy,'” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s certainly not safer for the individual who’s being put at risk of [exposure to] COVID in detention centers. … They don’t need to be in a detention center to go through [civil deportation] proceedings. They can show up to court, they can file their paperwork, they can do all that from the safety of their community and their family.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta added that making transfers convenient for ICE is not the state’s responsibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our issue is to look out for the health, safety and welfare of Californians,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

He said he had no plan to end the practice, which he said was the same way that CDCR responds to a hold placed by any other law enforcement agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in their letter to Newsom, Bonta and the other lawmakers said California is under no legal obligation to assist the federal government with deportations, and the governor and CDCR can end the policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s office did not respond to a request for comment by press time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant advocates said Monday that transfers from CDCR are the primary way that people are being taken into ICE custody in California since the start of the pandemic. CDCR transferred 575 people to ICE between Jan. 1 to May 13, according to Angela Chan, policy director for the San Francisco-based Asian Law Caucus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chan said she is aware of only one instance this year in which a person was released from state prison and not picked up by ICE — that’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11827388/cambodian-refugee-leaves-san-quentin-with-covid-19-but-avoids-ice-detention\">the case of Chanthon Bun\u003c/a>, a Cambodian refugee who was set free from San Quentin State Prison last week after earning early parole, having served 23 years of a 49-year sentence for an armed robbery he committed as a teenager.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the day of his release, Bun went for a COVID-19 test and found out he had been infected inside the prison. If he had been transferred to ICE custody, he would have taken the virus with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chan said Bun’s legal team at the Asian Law Caucus is still trying to learn why Bun was not transferred to ICE, even though the agency had a detainer to arrest him.

And the complexities around our voting system, number one, that's something that I don't think any person, frankly, in the United States, even with deep expertise, can understand in one snip. But also, I having wrote a book last year about the Constitution and understanding the fragility of our system of government and how so much of it actually hinges on having a functioning electoral system, I felt it was imperative to give people a one-stop shopping place to go to get all the basics about voting so that that knowledge can be in everyone's walking around vocabulary and we can start working from foundational principles — and not so much divisive concepts that I think flood the airwaves and flood so much of our conversations in private and public life right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the most common misconceptions Americans have about voting\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, a question I get a lot is about illegal voting. Voter fraud. I think there is a misconception that that is\" the \"serious problem in our electoral process. And unfortunately, that becomes really politicized — that if you are not concerned about voter fraud, somehow you're, you know, a liberal left wing person and not taking this seriously. There just isn't empirically a lot of evidence of that. Of course, it's really important to have safe and secure elections. But on the other end of the spectrum, the biggest problem really is participation. Not only are there barriers to entry — it can be difficult to not just get yourself registered, but to stay registered for people who don't have a driver's license for example — but also, there's just a lot of belief, widespread belief that votes don't matter, that it's OK to stay home from the polls because the system is rigged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a lot of cynicism. And I think that's extremely corrosive to democracy because it really is, at the end of the day — we've seen so many of the guardrails of democracy fall, particularly with this presidential administration — at the end of the day, it's what protects us from tyranny. And the framers understood that. But if we don't go to the polls to protect democracy itself, it could fail. And I believe that's what's on the ballot in November. Regardless of where you are in the political spectrum, if you like a functioning democracy, get out and actually cast a ballot even if you've never done it before — and save that system for our children and grandchildren.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On actions some states have taken that make it more difficult for some segments of the population to vote\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So originally, the only people who could vote under the Constitution were wealthy white males. And so we are in an opt-in system. You have to show that you're eligible to vote. Other democracies, it's opt out. You're automatically in — and you have to decide to get out. So the history of the United States has been opening the voting tent to more and more people, people that were formerly enslaved males and then eventually women and other people. But we still have this undercurrent of even if there's a right to vote, only the right people should vote. And of course, it culminated in the Voting Rights Act in the 1960s where African Americans, even though they had the legal right to vote, were being disenfranchised by poll taxes, literacy tests, basically making it hard to vote based on subjective, silly criteria. And what we're seeing now of a voter suppression efforts are closing polling stations, you know, having insufficient resources at the polls on Election Day. Now, some of that is legitimate. Just not enough money, not enough people on the ground that can actually execute these complex electoral systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's also a function, I think, of politics. We saw this with the Georgia governor's race in our country. The secretaries of state in each state, for the most part, manage elections. And for that particular election, the secretary of state, Brian Kemp, was also running for the governorship. So he had control over the rules for getting to the polls, staying on the rolls, how many polls are open, where the polls are open, what the hours are, how to count the ballots. You know, it's pretty easy to tweak things around the edges to benefit one party over the other. And in that instance, Stacey Abrams lost by approximately 50,000 votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under Mr. Kemp, there was a system where if your signature didn't match other government documents, you were put on hold. And you'd show up at the polls. Some people showed up the polls and they weren't registered because they were taken off the rolls based on that technicality. And about 50,000 people were put on hold — and, of course, that was about his margin of victory. So this kind of changing the rules of the system state by state in ways that do have a disparate impact on certain people is what's known as voter suppression. And my belief is everyone who's eligible — it shouldn't be hard. It should be really, really easy. And the fight should be around serious policy issues, not whether the right people should be able to exercise their right to vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On voting by mail\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not something that has been a concern by these states that vote almost exclusively by mail and actually the residents of those states really like it. It's very convenient, even in the age without a massive pandemic. It also increases voter participation on both sides of the political spectrum. It benefits Democrats and it also benefits Republicans. And I think in light of the absence of evidence backing up the president's claim, what you have to ask, is this president trying to win the election by keeping people home, not by actually giving people a reason to vote for him, and that keeping people home is a tactic that even we know the Russians used in 2016 and continue to use to this day, as does Iran and China, other countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The idea of telling people your vote doesn't matter. Planting false information to make people cynical about voting. That is a way to corrode our democracy. And it's something that affects and hurts people across the political spectrum. No one, I think, wants a system whereby the politicians tell us what to do. I mean, it's government by we the people, and the way we maintain our position of authority over our elected leaders is at the ballot box. So the president is just wrong about that. And we need to move on. That's not the battleground right now around voting. The battleground is to make it safe for people to exercise their legal and constitutional right to decide for themselves what kind of leadership we have in this country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On her book being a one-stop shop for answers around voting\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you get online, you'll find many, many organizations and Web sites that work very, very hard to inform voters about voting to help people with registration. You click on, you can register. But what I found there wasn't one place, a handbook that you could have on your shelf in your home that had not only information about how to register and how to vote ... but also basic civics, basic background information about the constitutional right to vote, which actually isn't in the original Constitution, although the Supreme Court has recognized it. And just voter education about what does it mean that the vote is being suppressed? Is voter fraud real? What does it mean to have foreign interference in our election? What is dark money? What is a PAC?

And the complexities around our voting system, number one, that's something that I don't think any person, frankly, in the United States, even with deep expertise, can understand in one snip. But also, I having wrote a book last year about the Constitution and understanding the fragility of our system of government and how so much of it actually hinges on having a functioning electoral system, I felt it was imperative to give people a one-stop shopping place to go to get all the basics about voting so that that knowledge can be in everyone's walking around vocabulary and we can start working from foundational principles — and not so much divisive concepts that I think flood the airwaves and flood so much of our conversations in private and public life right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the most common misconceptions Americans have about voting\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, a question I get a lot is about illegal voting. Voter fraud. I think there is a misconception that that is\" the \"serious problem in our electoral process. And unfortunately, that becomes really politicized — that if you are not concerned about voter fraud, somehow you're, you know, a liberal left wing person and not taking this seriously. There just isn't empirically a lot of evidence of that. Of course, it's really important to have safe and secure elections. But on the other end of the spectrum, the biggest problem really is participation. Not only are there barriers to entry — it can be difficult to not just get yourself registered, but to stay registered for people who don't have a driver's license for example — but also, there's just a lot of belief, widespread belief that votes don't matter, that it's OK to stay home from the polls because the system is rigged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a lot of cynicism. And I think that's extremely corrosive to democracy because it really is, at the end of the day — we've seen so many of the guardrails of democracy fall, particularly with this presidential administration — at the end of the day, it's what protects us from tyranny. And the framers understood that. But if we don't go to the polls to protect democracy itself, it could fail. And I believe that's what's on the ballot in November. Regardless of where you are in the political spectrum, if you like a functioning democracy, get out and actually cast a ballot even if you've never done it before — and save that system for our children and grandchildren.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On actions some states have taken that make it more difficult for some segments of the population to vote\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So originally, the only people who could vote under the Constitution were wealthy white males. And so we are in an opt-in system. You have to show that you're eligible to vote. Other democracies, it's opt out. You're automatically in — and you have to decide to get out. So the history of the United States has been opening the voting tent to more and more people, people that were formerly enslaved males and then eventually women and other people. But we still have this undercurrent of even if there's a right to vote, only the right people should vote. And of course, it culminated in the Voting Rights Act in the 1960s where African Americans, even though they had the legal right to vote, were being disenfranchised by poll taxes, literacy tests, basically making it hard to vote based on subjective, silly criteria. And what we're seeing now of a voter suppression efforts are closing polling stations, you know, having insufficient resources at the polls on Election Day. Now, some of that is legitimate. Just not enough money, not enough people on the ground that can actually execute these complex electoral systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's also a function, I think, of politics. We saw this with the Georgia governor's race in our country. The secretaries of state in each state, for the most part, manage elections. And for that particular election, the secretary of state, Brian Kemp, was also running for the governorship. So he had control over the rules for getting to the polls, staying on the rolls, how many polls are open, where the polls are open, what the hours are, how to count the ballots. You know, it's pretty easy to tweak things around the edges to benefit one party over the other. And in that instance, Stacey Abrams lost by approximately 50,000 votes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under Mr. Kemp, there was a system where if your signature didn't match other government documents, you were put on hold. And you'd show up at the polls. Some people showed up the polls and they weren't registered because they were taken off the rolls based on that technicality. And about 50,000 people were put on hold — and, of course, that was about his margin of victory. So this kind of changing the rules of the system state by state in ways that do have a disparate impact on certain people is what's known as voter suppression. And my belief is everyone who's eligible — it shouldn't be hard. It should be really, really easy. And the fight should be around serious policy issues, not whether the right people should be able to exercise their right to vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On voting by mail\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not something that has been a concern by these states that vote almost exclusively by mail and actually the residents of those states really like it. It's very convenient, even in the age without a massive pandemic. It also increases voter participation on both sides of the political spectrum. It benefits Democrats and it also benefits Republicans. And I think in light of the absence of evidence backing up the president's claim, what you have to ask, is this president trying to win the election by keeping people home, not by actually giving people a reason to vote for him, and that keeping people home is a tactic that even we know the Russians used in 2016 and continue to use to this day, as does Iran and China, other countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The idea of telling people your vote doesn't matter. Planting false information to make people cynical about voting. That is a way to corrode our democracy. And it's something that affects and hurts people across the political spectrum. No one, I think, wants a system whereby the politicians tell us what to do. I mean, it's government by we the people, and the way we maintain our position of authority over our elected leaders is at the ballot box. So the president is just wrong about that. And we need to move on. That's not the battleground right now around voting. The battleground is to make it safe for people to exercise their legal and constitutional right to decide for themselves what kind of leadership we have in this country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On her book being a one-stop shop for answers around voting\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you get online, you'll find many, many organizations and Web sites that work very, very hard to inform voters about voting to help people with registration. You click on, you can register. But what I found there wasn't one place, a handbook that you could have on your shelf in your home that had not only information about how to register and how to vote ... but also basic civics, basic background information about the constitutional right to vote, which actually isn't in the original Constitution, although the Supreme Court has recognized it. And just voter education about what does it mean that the vote is being suppressed? Is voter fraud real? What does it mean to have foreign interference in our election? What is dark money? What is a PAC? What is a super PAC?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
