Interesting that R response to 2012 election is not to appeal to more voters, but to rig the system. http://bit.ly/14if1OZ
@MiekeEoyang Pretty sure that was plan going INTO 2012 election, but Thomas Perez thwarted their efforts.

@emptywheel Certainly that's been their goal, but isn't making the VA plan national new? Voter suppression v. Electoral college rigging. -
@MiekeEoyang But they've been pursuing efforts to rig elections ever since they refused to follow Rove's advice on immigration reform. -
@emptywheel I think it's further back than that. They opposed Motor Voter Reg in 90s because increasing electorate would make it more D. -
@MiekeEoyang Prop 187, then? -
@emptywheel Maybe. But I decouple the electoral reform/suppression stuff from immigration. Poll taxes in 1930s weren't about immigrants.
