In a Feb 4 email, Indiana GOP chair Hupfer replied to President Biden’s question “What are Republicans for?” w/7 points. Item 3: “Free, fair, and secure elections,” an implicit value of any U.S. political party, but a not-too-subtle swipe at the 2020 election & trump’s loss. 1/5
First, let’s cut the crap. An article, 2/3/21, by the Hoover Institution, affiliated w/Stanford, states allegations of voter fraud in 2020 “fail either because sometimes the ‘fact’ is inaccurate or it is accurate but not surprising.” All info in the year since reinforces this conclusion. 2/5
Second, these GOP words are contradicted by GOP actions that seek to restrict the vote because more voters = GOP losses. On “Fox & Friends” 3/30/20 the eventual loser in the 2020 election said w/increased voting “you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again.” 3/5
Hupfer’s Item 4: “Individual liberty and freedom.” GOP-backed legislation would fine public school teachers for teaching history & anti-protest bills proposed in 34 States that include limits on legal liability for ppl who run over protesters w/their car. 4/5
We have to seize control of the formerly progressive GOP from forces of bigotry & ignorance. I’m Mark Small. I’m pro-choice, pro environment & GOP candidate for Indiana House District 86. I approve of this blog. Hell, I wrote it. 5/5
