The Republican effort to suppress votes at Appalachian State University may have backfired.
More than 700 people voted yesterday at the Student Union polling place that the State Board of Elections tried to shut down. Now we know why the board didn’t want it.
An App student said, “It sends a clear message about how we respond to being suppressed. College students are obviously listening.”
A tip of the TAP hat to the 20-somethings in the ASU College Dems and the 20-plus-somethings in the Watauga County Dems who fought so hard for this.
Ian O’Keefe, the coordinated-campaign manager, was supposed to be on Rachel Maddow’s show last night to talk about it, but got bumped by Ebola.
Now Republicans might get bumped by an epidemic of their own making.
