Last time we checked in on Hans von Spakovsky, the vote suppression guru was doggedly making the case for voter ID laws.
Now Angelenos have a chance to sample his wisdom. On April 2nd, Spakovsky will be speaking to the Los Angeles chapter of the Federalist Society. The title of the lecture is “Litigating Elections: the Campaign Process in 2008” — characteristic of a man who’s shown a genius for using the law to affect elections.
While Spakovsky is spreading the gospel, the White House and Republicans have still refused to back down from his nomination to the Federal Election Commission. The Dems, meanwhile, refuse to allow him to be slipped through with the other FEC nominees. Which is why the FEC remains unable to act.
Thanks to TPM Reader KA for the tip.
