Farr was a part of a campaign that mailed 120,000 postcards almost exclusively to African-American voters with false information designed to decrease turnout. When I asked if he was involved he denied any knowledge, but press reports & a DOJ memo outline his efforts at that time.
Mr. Farr has remained active in efforts to depress & dilute African-American voting. In 2013 he defended North Carolina’s congressional & legislative districts, which were redrawn to reduce the power of African-American voters. And in 2016 he defended a restrictive voter ID law.
In both cases the courts disagreed. In fact, in striking down the Voter ID law, the Fourth Circuit said that the law’s requirements “target African Americans with almost surgical precision.”
So there’s good reason the Congressional Black Caucus, the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, dozens of other organizations and all 49 Democrats are opposed to Mr. Farr’s nomination. Tom Farr does not belong on a federal court.
@SenFeinstein I’m very glad to see that my senator is on the right track with Farr. He should not be on any judicial bench.
And dear @SenSusanCollins THINKS THATS just hunky dorey
