Dear Mr. Kobach,
I am merely a citizen of Arizona, not its Secretary of State, but I'm grateful for the opportunity to respond to your recent call for views on "laws, rules, policies, activities, strategies, and practice that [...] undermine the American people's confidence in the integrity of federal election processes." As a regular voter I am, in general very confident of the election processes used by my state, county and city. My confidence is, however undermined by:
A president who frequently expresses his distaste for bleeding women but has yet to express his opposition to Russian interference in American elections Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process
Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose their voters rather than the reverse and in the case of Arizona, my home state, going to the courts to try to undo a voter referendum requiring a bipartisan committee to redistrict The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v Holder, gutting the protections of the Voting Rights Act under the obviously false rationale that America is today a post-racial society Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working poor, and students Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering and conveniently producing no auditable paper trails A Federal Elections Commission - our democracy's watchdog - that is toothless by design The Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v FEC, granting the wealthy few a louder voice in political campaigns than all other citizens combined An advisory committee on election integrity led by a notorious champion of voter suppression

It seems to me these are similar actions to what the Nazi party did in 1930s Germany. What do you suggest we do to stop this evil tide in its' tracks?

I'm no Secretary of State, but I am an American citizen, born and raised. Do you want to know what is undermining my confidence in the electoral process?

Dear Mr. Kobach:
You recently asked the secretaries of state for the various United States
for input regarding what undermines the American people's confidence in
the integrity of federal elections processes. While I'm certainly not a
secretary of state, I am nonetheless most certainly a member of the
American people. Accordingly, I'll offer you some of my answers to your
question regarding what undermines my confidence in the integrity of the
federal elections process:
A president who during his campaign repeatedly described the
election as "rigged", yet has expressed no concern about probable
Russian interference in American elections
Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process
Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps, enabling
politicians to choose their voters rather than the reverse
The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v. Holder, gutting
the protections of the Voting Rights Act under the conspicuously
false rationale that America is today a post-racial discrimination
society
Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working
poor, and students
Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering
and conveniently producing no auditable paper trails
A Federal Elections Commission (FEC) - our democracy's watchdog
- that is, by design, toothless
The Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v. FEC, granting
the wealthy few a louder voice in political campaigns than all other
citizens combined
An Electoral College system that enables minority rule
An advisory committee on election integrity led by a notorious
champion of voter suppression
It is my hope that these answers will assist in clarifying your thinking
regarding the integrity of the federal elections process, and send you in a
different direction than pursuit of the chimera of massive in-person
fraudulent voting, leading to a preordained conclusion that even more
voters must be disenfranchised in order to solve the virtually nonexistent
"problem".
Sincerely,
Keith Baldwin

I’m grateful for the opportunity to respond to your recent call for views on what undermines the American people’s confidence in the integrity of federal elections processes.
As a voter, my confidence in our election process is undermined by:
- A president who unnecessarily spends taxpayer money to uncover fake voter fraud in the 2016 election, yet has never expressed his opposition to proven Russian interference in American elections.
- Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process
- Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose their voters rather than the reverse
- Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working poor and students
- Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to start-sponsored tampering and conveniently producing no auditable paper trails

Dear Mr Kris Kobach,
I am an American citizen concerned about the integrity of our federal elections processes.
Here are my concerns listed:
Everyone's vote should count equally. The urban vote is under represented in federal elections.
Now we have a president who has yet to express his opposition to Russian interference in American elections, even though before the vote he was claiming that if he lost, the election was rigged.
Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process, when there has been virtually no proven in-person voter fraud done.
Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose their voters rather than the reverse.
The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v Holder, gutting the protections of the Voting Rights Act under the obviously false rationale that America is today a post-racial society.
Voter suppression efforts targeted at the elderly, voters of color, the working poor, and students.
Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering and conveniently producing no auditable paper trails.

We read with horror that you are demanding sensitive voter information from our Secretary of State. Our information will not be useful in determining which 3,000,000 of Hillary Clinton’s popular votes were “fraudulent”. The individual States are doing whatever is necessary to prevent voter fraud, and the fact that the 7-year old in the White House just cannot cope with the truth that he LOST the popular vote is none of our concern.
The other truth you need to understand is that our sensitive information is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. We do not register to vote with (heaven forbid!!) you and you do not determine our eligibility for the franchise. GO AWAY. Stroke Trump’s ego some other way.

"integrity" commission
Thursday, June 29, 2017 9:00:24 PM
If Mr. Kobach's history is any indication, what he means by "voting integrity" is really voter suppression. As an American Citizen, I object to Mr. Kobach's request for information, and firmly believe his intent is to continue to rig elections. I am encouraging my SOS to reject his request.
What I object to:
A president who frequently expresses his distaste for bleeding women but has yet to express
his opposition to Russian interference in American elections
Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process
Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose
their voters rather than the reverse
The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v Holder, gutting the protections of the
Voting Rights Act under the obviously false rationale that America is today a post-racial society
Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working poor, and students
Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering and
conveniently producing no auditable paper trails
A Federal Elections Commission - our democracy's watchdog - that is toothless by design
The Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v FEC, granting the wealthy few a louder
voice in political campaigns than all other citizens combined
An antiquated Electoral College system that enables minority rule
An advisory committee on elections integrity led by a notorious champion of voter suppression.
Dump Kobach from any "integrity" commission and there might be a chance it actually is in pursuit
of integrity.
Stop fascism.
Dump Kobach.

Integrity of the Federal Elections Process

Dear Me. Kobach ,
As an American citizen, I feel that it would be good for me to answer your question about this issue since the Attorney General of the State of Washington works for me. I believe he and I are on the same page, but I thought you would appreciate hearing directly from me. Below is a partial list of things that cause me concern. It is based on someone else's list, but it speaks to my concerns and I have edited it to make it more personal. Please do whatever you can to make the system work properly for ALL Americans.
The fact that many (not all) elected representatives in the Senate and the House are not
treating the interferance in the 2016 elections with the seriousness that is required for
such an egregious breech.
A president who frequently expresses his distaste for women who are menstruating,
older, or not his type, but has yet to express his opposition to Russian interference in
American elections
Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process
Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose
their voters rather than the reverse
The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v Holder, gutting the protections of the
Voting Rights Act under the obviously false rationale that America is today a post-racial
society
Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working poor, and students
Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering and conveniently
producing no auditable paper trails
A Federal Elections Commission - our democracy's watchdog - that is toothless by
design
The Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v FEC, granting the wealthy few a
louder voice in political campaigns than all other citizens combined
An antiquated Electoral College system that enables minority rule
An advisory committee on election integrity led by a notorious champion of voter
suppression
Thank you for asking about this issue, and thank you in advance for working to correct as many of these problems as possible.

Dear Mr. Kobach,
I am not a governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state of other high elected official. I am merely an American citizen, a veteran, and a voter. I appreciate the opportunity to respond to your recent request for feedback on "laws, rules, policies, activities, strategies and practices that [...] undermine the American people's confidence in the integrity of federal elections processes."
As a voter, my confidence in the integrity of federal election processes is undermined by the following:
1. A president who has yet to express his opposition to Russian interference in American elections. 2. Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process.
3. Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose their voters rather than the reverse. 4. The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v Holder, gutting the protections of the Voting Rights Act under the obviously false rationale that America is today a post-racial society. 5. Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working poor, and students.
6. Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering and conveniently producing no auditable paper trails. 7. A Federal Elections Commission - our democracy's watchdog - that is toothless by design.
8. The Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v FEC, granting the wealthy few a louder voice in political campaigns than all other citizens combined. 9. An antiquated Electoral College system that enables minority rule.
10. An advisory committee on election integrity led by a notorious champion of voter suppression.
Mr. Kobach, let's be honest here. There is no voter fraud. We both know that. It is merely a boogeyman created by conservative politicians fearful of a democratic vote. After all, if elections are truly free, you stand a real chance of losing your position and therefore your power. You and other vote suppressors like yourself are cowards, as all bullies are, afraid of their fellow Americans. You being in charge of this pointless advisory committee is what shakes my confidence in the integrity of federal elections.
Sincerely, Mike Dungan

Dear Sir:
I am an American citizen who is happy to respond to the Commission's call for input from
citizens on our sacred elections. My concerns are as follows:
A president who frequently expresses his distaste for any journalism that does not
shower him in effusive and unearned praise, but has yet to express his opposition to
Russian interference in American elections, despite all of our professional Intelligence
Community conclusions that there was such interference
Massive purges of voter registration rolls without due process and often without notice
to those being purged
Legislators who craft gerrymandered redistricting maps enabling politicians to choose
their voters rather than the reverse, thereby undermining our representative
democracy
The Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v Holder, gutting the protections of the
Voting Rights Act under the obviously false rationale that America is today a post-racial
society, when, in fact the law should be extended to the entire United States
Voter suppression efforts targeted at voters of color, the working poor, and students
Antiquated voting systems vulnerable to state-sponsored tampering and conveniently
producing no auditable paper trails, as in my home state of Georgia, where tampering
has already been found
A Federal Elections Commission - our democracy's watchdog - that is toothless by
design
The Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v FEC, granting the wealthy few a louder
voice in political campaigns than all other citizens combined, turning our country
into a plutocracy, which, I assume is a feature, not a bug
An antiquated Electoral College system that enables minority rule and utterly failed in
its one job; to prevent an unfit demagogue from becoming President
An advisory committee on election integrity led by a notorious champion of voter
suppression, that being yourself, as recently determined by a court of law
I am sure you will give my concerns a great deal of thought and reach your own conclusion. As
is usual with this administration, I am also sure that you have already come to that conclusion
and that you and the administration will seek to apply the same Machiavellian rules to the
nation that you did in Kansas. God help America.
