Keith Ellison Suggests Republicans Want to Suppress Voting
2018-07-23
[Daily Caller] Minnesota Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison suggested that Republicans want to suppress voters in a Sunday tweet.

"Yup," Ellison, who’s also the Democratic National Committee’s deputy chair, replied to another tweet saying "’If voting didn’t matter, the GOP wouldn’t be working so hard to prevent people from doing it.'"

This isn’t the first time Ellison has linked the GOP to voter suppression.

“More proof of Republicans using race to suppress POC votes. Read before you judge,” Ellison tweeted in 2016 with a link to an article that said Republicans who live in districts with “substantial” black populations are most likely to be supportive of voter ID laws.

Ellison also tweeted in March: "We’ve got to ask who benefits from all this racism. Who loses? All of us! Because Florida purged black voters, the whole country got George Bush, which led us into war and enriched big pharma. This happened to everyone of every color. Racism helps elites control everyone else."

Almost a haiku innit.

#8  Scary thing is there hasn't been a GOP AG in Minnesota for 40 years or so. Based on that, he's gotta be considered the front-runner. Ellison, Al Franken... for a state full of nice people we sure elect some real

#6  Keith Ellison Suggests Republicans Want to Suppress Voting

Nah, they just want to stop the fraud, rigging, and corruption of the Donk Party.

Rep. Keith Ellison (Dem, MN), what do you have to say about your recent interview with Jake Tapper?: "Jake Tapper Questions Keith Ellison on Connections to ‘Bigot’ Louis Farrakhan."
