Man... board conservatives don't want to touch this one.

It's almost as if they support the efforts of the GQP to actively destroy democracy.

well, the arizona republican party is a party to the suit, so they had to explain why they were an interested party relative to the relief sought (ie standing)... so they had to answer in a way that explained why the party would be harmed

I do get that GOP is arguing that it is kosher to discriminate against blacks because they're *generally* Democratic voters.

It’s a shame Poland was closed that day you flew there. You wouldn’t have to worry about anything then
