Fern, As I imagine you know, for decades, Republicans, more so than Democrats, have invested heavily in State and local elections. Regrettably, Republicans are now poised to lay the groundwork for undermining the next election. Still, in the last few days, I’ve been uplifted by members of the Senate caucus who no longer expect either Manchin or Sinema to consent to a carve-out and, thus, are exploring rule changes that would resuscitate some version of the talking filibuster that, once exhausted, would conclude with an up or down majority vote. I plan to do all I can to advocate for their success. As for you asking, “Who are the leaders…”, I decided some time ago that it’s up to us to organize and to acquire the knowledge and strength to take responsibility for our collective destiny.
Sorry for this late response, Barbara. I am familiar with the Koch Bros. long and active engagement with the course of legislatures in a number of states. The Republicans dirty hands are all over the election machinery as well. I saw the Rachel Maddow's interviews with both Bernie Sanders and Pramila Jayapal, last night. There aren't more dedicated public servants with their shoulders to the wheel. Your knowledge and organizing work to awaken more Americans, Barbara, spur our commitment. Thank you.
