With the Senate still deadlocked over the nomination of vote-suppression guru Hans von Spakovsky to the FEC, two former Justice Department officials writing at TPMCafe urge the Dems to hold firm.
Their op-ed, by the way, was rejected by the Washington Post â after the paper ran an editorial urging the Senate to approve von Spakovsky (âa flawed FEC is better than no FEC at allâ) and a George Will column that, beyond urging von Spakovskyâs confirmation, attacked the former Department officials whoâd opposed it. They respond to Will here as well.
