‘Open the door’

The State of North Carolina The Board of Elections (NCSBE) is facing another lawsuit as the Republican National Committee (RNC) is suing the swing state for allegedly granting non-citizens the right to vote.

The lawsuit, filed last week in Wake County by the RNC and the North Carolina Republican Party, accuses the NCSBE and its members Alan Hirsch, Jeff Carmon, Siobhan Millen, Stacy Eggers IV and Kevin Lewis of failing to require identification documents to prove citizenship.

The lawsuit alleges that by violating the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) and failing to verify the IDs of approximately 225,000 voters, the agency is “giving non-citizens the opportunity to cast their vote.”

North Carolina is the first state in the USA to start voting. The swing state begins sending out Ballot papers for eligible voters on September 6th.

“The NCSBE has once again failed in its mandate to keep non-citizens off the voter rolls, fueling distrust and jeopardizing our elections,” RNC Chairman Michael Whatley said in a statement. “We are committed to the fundamental principle – and common sense – that only Americans decide American elections. Willfully failing to follow the law just before our country’s most important election is inexcusable. We will fight every day to ensure that the NCSBE follows the law, cleanse the voter rolls and protects North Carolinians’ choice.”…Read more

Iranian diaspora activists gathered in front of the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin on January 27, 2024 during the protest action “Together against executions in Iran”. The protest, organized by the group Echo Iran, condemned the increasing number of death sentences handed down by the rulers of the Islamic Republic of Iran. According to Human Rights Activists in Iran (HRANA), a non-political and non-governmental organization committed to defending human rights, at least 746 people were executed in Iran in 2023. A highlight of this demonstration was Kosar Eftekhari, who joined thousands of Iranians in several demonstrations for the women’s movement for freedom of life after the death of Mahsa Amini.
