A Miscarraige of Justice in Judge Banfield's Courtroom

Bellevue—Judge Camara Banfield ruled in favor of the Defense's Motion for summary judgement this week in Frohlich v. Clark. This sets the effective precedent that county auditors are under no legal obligation to remove voters from the voter rolls who have previously reported moving to the government or even updating their voter registrations prior to an election. Counting the votes of these voters from their previous addresses and allowing them to impact races for which they are no longer constituents has been clarified to be Washington State law. While the ruling is an obvious miscarriage of justice, and moreover the current construction of the law is broken, it is not the end of our fight - not even close. 
 
The ruling of this case going against the Washington State Republican Party (WAGOP) presents a larger opportunity to tackle the flaws of our election system by clarifying where the current interpretation of state law could potentially contradict higher levels of law. While we are still looking over and considering all the current legal interpretations, we are confident this ruling will allow us to file follow-up lawsuits with more favorable courts that could lead to WA state election law, as interpreted and as written, being ruled unconstitutional. 
 
Please consider contributing to WAGOP to help us fight back on all fronts. When everything is broken and going against us, we cannot give up; we must find new strategies that work and fight for what is right. Well-crafted legal strategies and carefully articulated arguments are two of our primary means of fighting back. Our Constitution was written to protect us in times when tyrants function as if they rule over us. They DO NOT. Help us send them this message. We are grateful for your support. Thank you.
 
Sincerely,
 
WAGOP Executive Director Matthew Frohlich
