Reading this opinion and statements, Sotamayor makes it clear how openly political some members of the SCOTUS are. Alito even feels compelled to state the obvious, that they have no authority to judge whether its the best system, only that it doesn't violate the law. Because so many of these people dont seem to understand how the government works anymore. (by design?) Brass tacks, its as important to ensure the legitimacy of our elections as it is to ensure that those who are legally allowed are able to vote. Some (even on the SCOTUS) do not seem to understand that allowing anyone and everyone to vote is as detrimental to our electoral process as denying a legal person or group to vote.

Article on SCOTUS decision: www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/06/11/supreme-court-gives-green-light-to-ohios-voting-roll-purge.htmlThe Supreme Court ruled Monday that Ohio is allowed to purge eligible voters from the state’s registration records if they have not cast ballots in a while. In a 5-4 ruling issued by Justice Samuel Alito, the high court ruled that Ohio’s law to trigger the removal of inactive voters from the state’s registry can be enforced. State officials argued that the process used by Ohio for more than 20 years is constitutional and legal, and meant to ensure election security. Civil liberties groups challenged the state’s program for removing thousands of people from voter rolls based on their failure to vote in recent elections, claiming it violated the National Voter Registration Act. But Alito said that Ohio is complying with the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. At least six other states have similar rules in place, and Monday’s decision could lead others to adopt similar procedures. “It is undisputed that Ohio does not remove a registrant on change-of-residence grounds unless the registrant is sent and fails to mail back a return card and then fails to vote for an additional four years,” Alito wrote in his opinion. He concluded: “We have no authority to second-guess Congress or to decide whether Ohio’s Supplemental Process is the ideal method for keeping its voting rolls up to date. The only question before us is whether it violates federal law. It does not.

I’m hopeful that this ruling will help other states to implement similar voter guidelines to help begin to eliminate some of the potential fraud that can come from it.

On another front: dailycaller.com/2018/06/11/obamas-meeting-2020-dem-contenders/President Obama has been secretly meeting with Democrats who are expected to or have expressed interested in pursuing the party’s nomination for 2020 over the last few months, according to POLITICO. Obama has met with Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, and his former Vice President Joe Biden, among others. Former presidential candidate Sanders has been linked to the 2020 nomination for a while. A new Democratic National Convention rule, however, could hinder his campaign before it begins. According to the rule, any person vying for the Democratic nomination has to be a registered Democrat, which Sanders isn’t; he’s a registered independent. Warren has become a popular choice among the public as a potential nominee. She and the president have fought relentlessly since he was sworn in. Trump coined the nickname “Pocohantas” for the senator, who claims she is of Native American ancestry. Despite the meetings with Obama, she stated in an interview that she “[will] not run for president.” (RELATED: Elizabeth Warren Says She Is Not Running For President) Biden has been very indecisive about a potential bid for the nomination, saying he’ll wait until after the midterms to decide. He and the president have a very adversarial relationship, both saying they could win in a fight against the other. (RELATED: POLL: Who Would Win In A Fight: Joe Biden Or Donald Trump?) The former president has also met with Deval Patrick, the former Massachusetts governor; Mitch Landrieu, the former New Orleans mayor; Jason Kander, the failed 2016 Missouri Senate candidate; and Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana.

Russia again: www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/bob-mulholland-california-dnc-superdelegates-reform-putin-russia_us_5b1d636fe4b09d7a3d73e7bbMomentum is growing within the Democratic National Committee for a significant reform to the party’s presidential nominating process, but the proposed change has caused a leading California Democrat to question whether Russian meddling is behind the effort. The Californian, Bob Mulholland, could provide no proof for his claim. But his comments underscore the resistance the reform push is expected to encounter from some party stalwarts. At issue is the clout exercised by so-called superdelegates in the party’s presidential nominating process. At a Friday meeting of the DNC’s Rules and Bylaws Committee in Rhode Island, a majority of that panel expressed support for dramatically reducing the power of superdelegates at the Democratic National Convention by barring them from having a vote on the convention’s first ballot.

www.politico.com/story/2018/06/10/mark-sanford-primary-trump-south-carolina-635357GOP Rep. Mark Sanford has spent the past three years torching President Donald Trump, firmly establishing himself as a staunch critic of the commander-in-chief who, unlike so many others in his party, never came around. Now he’s suddenly at risk of losing his job over it. The once seemingly safe former South Carolina governor, who’s never lost a bid for political office, is sweating in the final days of his primary race against state Rep. Katie Arrington, a political newcomer who’s cast Sanford as a disloyal Never-Trumper. Over the past several weeks, Sanford has launched an 11th-hour TV advertising blitz going directly after Arrington, a sure indication that he’s under duress. He’s barnstorming his Lowcountry district. And on Sunday, he released a full-page letter to a local newspaper in which he pleaded with voters to “look at the list of things I have gotten done on your behalf” and asked them to call him on his personal cell phone if they had any questions. Sanford is one of a string of Republican lawmakers under mounting pressure over their allegiance to the president. Alabama Rep. Martha Roby, who vowed not to vote for then-candidate Trump after the release of the “Access Hollywood” tape in which he bragged about sexually assaulting women, has been forced into a primary runoff.

Ultimately, Congress gets the final say on this: www.yahoo.com/gma/proposal-split-california-three-states-makes-november-ballot-085603479--abc-news-topstories.htmlProposal to split California into three states makes November ballot California residents will get a chance to vote on a measure to divide the Golden State into three separate states, election officials said Tuesday. Proponents of the CAL 3 initiative submitted more than 402,468 valid signatures as of Tuesday, making it eligible for the Nov. 6 general election ballot, according to the California Secretary of State’s office. The office did not say exactly how many total signatures were submitted, but backers said the petition drew more than 600,000 from residents across the state’s 58 counties, dwarfing the 365,000 signatures required to qualify for the ballot. Adding the initiative to the ballot would be the first step in a long process that would ultimately require approval from Congress.

That's the problem...not a fan of Sanford but 93% is about as conservative a voting record as you can get...Lyndsey Graham is 33% and should have to run as a Dem...folks pay zero attention to actions anymore and just pay attention to the rhetoric...

I dont know what a "93% liberty score" means, or how those metrics are calculated. It has to be subjective, I know that much. I will look into it. I dont know Sanford from Arrington (had to go check her name from previous posts to write this). But, if Sanford has been bashing Trump consistently, and is losing his governorship over it, he sounds like a never trumper to me, and its prob over more than just not being a "Trump fanboy." I'll look more into it, but a "93% liberty score" doesnt mean anything to me. EDIT: Looking into it, I see its a Levin score from the Conservative Review (his site?). I do like Levin, and do see there are several "liberty scores" which vary, showing the subjective nature of it. I also realize not knowing what a liberty score is probably makes me look naive or dumb, but when I say I dont live on political websites, and dont know a lot of whats going on in the conservative MSM sphere, I mean it. LT's, here and reddit is about it for me. I havent even listened to Rush in many, many months. I actually like not being plugged in that intimately. I think it allows a little more freedom of thought, but thats just an opinion. I also don't know anything about Sanford. Just looked at some of his old attacks on Trump, and they all look personal. If he was voting "properly" but was bashing Trumps personality, I guess I could live with that (vs bashing Trump and voting like a commie). I know literally zero about Arrington, other than shes a woman and beat Sanford.

www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/06/14/democrats-want-obama-back-because-theres-fing-no-one-else/As the Democratic party struggles to find its footing, they look toward past leadership to guide them into the future. After former President Bill Clinton’s unapologetic remarks regarding Monica Lewinsky and the #MeToo movement — as well as the revelation that most voters see him as little more than a sexual predator — Democrats are stepping back from the Clinton family. Instead, they are pushing for former President Barack Obama to return from the sidelines. “There’s f—ing no one else,” one frustrated Democratic strategist said, according to The Hill. “Bill Clinton is toxic, [former President] Carter is too old, and there’s no one else around for miles.” Another staunch supporter admitted “he’s been way too quiet,” saying that “there are a lot of people who think he’s played too little a role or almost no role in endorsing or fundraising and he’s done jack shit in getting people to donate to the party.” Harsh words, perhaps, but revealing ones. And while the Obamas court a Netflix deal that allegedly will not have a “political slant,” more and more members of their party would rather see them become decidedly more political once again. Obama has recently participated in several fundraisers but has yet to make any midterm endorsements. As preparation for the 2020 elections begin, sources close to him say that “recapturing the House and helping Democrats gain more influence in the redistricting process were two of his top goals,” although “it’s certainly not the post-presidency he might’ve preferred,” according to Democratic strategist David Wade. “He always wanted to help, without a doubt. He cares tremendously about our country and our party. But I think he always intended to be a little more on the sidelines than he’s been,” a former aide told The Hill. “I think he realizes he is needed and needed badly.” thehill.com/homenews/campaign/392181-dems-say-obama-return-from-sidelines-is-overdue

I'm not saying the system is wrong or anything. The subjective nature of "conservative" is what makes it subjective. I could see how such a system would show Trump as not having a strong record on conservative candidates. Thats not necessarily the worst thing though. Trump is prob one of the more moderate "conservatives" out there, esp socially, which I think is a key to his continually rising popularity.
