Today on The BradCast<\/i><\/a>, voters are fighting to cast their vote, as voting machines, election officials and GOP suppression efforts continue to work against them. [Audio link to show is posted below.<\/i>]\n

The RNC may now be facing another 8 years of court-ordered restrictions against targeting minority voters, as the DNC files<\/a> to have a federal Consent Decree from the early 80s extended, charging<\/a> that the RNC and Trump campaign have colluded to unlawfully suppress the vote through so-called “ballot security” schemes and other intimidation tactics.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, confidence in accurate election results is plummetting<\/a> nationally and voter suppression seems to be working<\/a> against voters in North Carolina, where early voting has been shortened in many counties and some voters — including a 100-year old African-American woman<\/a> — are finding themselves threatened with being purged from the rolls after being challenged by Republican “caging lists”.<\/p>\n

In Wisconsin, Democratic lawmakers are begging<\/a> the U.S. Dept. of Justice to send poll monitors after the state’s GOP Photo ID voting restrictions are said to be resulting in havoc, confusion and disenfranchisement.<\/p>\n

In Texas, Georgia, North Carolina and Illinois (so far) 100% unverifiable Direct Recording Electronic (DRE, touch-screen style) voting systems are reportedly flipping votes from R to D and from D to R and, once again, election officials are blaming voters<\/a>, rather than themselves.<\/p>\n

Also today: Militarized troops in North Dakota clear out<\/a> Dakota Access Pipeline protesters near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation and the owners of the pipeline are revealed<\/a> to be big Trump funders while the GOP nominee is revealed to have large stock holdings in the companies that own it; The Yale Record<\/i> does “not”<\/a> endorse Hillary Clinton and neither does Libertarian Party Veep nominee Gov. William Weld (wink<\/a>); and Desi Doyen joins us to “blame the cows”, among other things, in our the latest Green News Report<\/i><\/a>…<\/p>\n
