While the austerity doctrine seems to have imploded, austerity has strengthened its grip on elite opinion. Why?
After an hour and a half hearing this afternoon, the San Antonio panel elected to keep the existing interim maps in place despite urging from LULAC that use of the maps was not permitted under case precedent.

From United States Election Assistance Commission site:
I’m organizing a massive voter registration drive. Is there a limit to the number of applications I can copy?
No. Voter registration groups may make as many copies of the National Mail Voter Registration Form as they would like. Furthermore, there is no limit on the number of completed forms a voter registration group may submit to local election offices. However, voter registration groups should endeavor to institute quality control measures to make sure each completed registration application they deliver to their local election offices is filled in completely and legibly.
It’s also worth noting that the number of Voter Registration Forms that a state distributes is usually at the discretion of the state’s chief election official. Many states base the number of forms they distribute on the size of the target population of the proposed registration drive, method of distribution, number of individuals registered by the organization in any previous voter registration drive and a number of other variables.
Can my organization mail the completed Forms we receive in our registration drive, or do the individuals need to mail them personally?If we can mail them, do they have to be individually stamped or can they be bundled?
An organization may mail completed Voter Registration Applications to the appropriate election office(s) individually or in a bundle. The Department of Justice interprets the cost of first class postage to fall into the realm of “facilitating” voter registration, and not as an attempt to induce an individual to register to vote by giving something of value, which would be prohibited by the “vote buying” provisions of the Voting Rights Act.

Note left on car of recently out lesbian.
Hey look, it’s Leviticus - weren’t a bunch of people trying to tell me that the old testament doesn’t apply any more last week?
I just want to point out that it says “if a man lies with a man”; not if a “woman lies with a woman”. So in the eyes of this cherry picked passage only gay male sex would be wrong; why are they giving it to a lesbian?
Reading comprehension. They have none.
That comment is too beautifully written to not reblog.
