CLC Executive Director Urges Sen. Reid to Hold Separate Vote on von Spakovsky Nomination
The Campaign Legal Center sent a letter to Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) today urging him to hold a separate vote in the Senate on the highly controversial nomination of Hans von Spakovsky to the Federal Election Commission.
According to the letter, “Mr. von Spakovsky's lengthy record of minority vote suppression has been well documented and leaves him singularly unqualified to serve in a position interpreting and enforcing our nation's election laws.” It continues, “Voters nationwide deserve to know if their Senator votes in favor of this nominee who is wholly unqualified, having devoted much of his professional career to undermining minority voting rights.”
