As usual, there is a lot of focus on who the presidential candidates will be and not on Republican attempts to depress the vote, affecting races up and down the ballot. Thanks for highlighting stories like these and helping keep national media accountable.

My question is where is the former Democratic leadership? On several occasions, we have seen former DOJ attorneys, former AGs, even never-Trumpers speak up forcefully about the endless injustices perpetrated by Trump GOP officials. Stacy Abrams raised $20M to fight voter irregularity...why isn't she highlighting the attempted voter purging in Ohio? Where are the former Democratic Congresspeople (who are not paid cable consultants) who should be publicly decrying the coordinated campaign of disinformation against Ms. Mueri? Where aren't former journalists publicly shaming Politico? Democracies don't die in darkness, they die of passivity, lack of leadership, and refusal to speak by those who have a platform.
