Joe Biden has hired a national director for voter protection, a role his campaign says will focus broadly on voter rights, including the disenfranchisement of people of color amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The campaign said Rachana Desai Martin will join its legal team, serving also as senior counsel. Martin, who has a strong background in voter protection work, previously worked as chief operating officer of the Democratic National Committee and as the DNCs director of civic engagement and voter protection.
The pandemic has disproportionately affected people of color, especially black Americans who represent an outsize number of infections and deaths. An Associated Press analysis last month found more than one-third of those who have died are African American.
The push for voter protection rights has only intensified in recent weeks, after some primary elections, including Milwaukees on April 7, sparked concern that voters were forced to wait in long lines to cast their ballots. Some health officials have warned the coronavirus could spread at polling places.
Several states are looking at remote-voting possibilities. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said last week that all registered Michigan voters were sent absentee ballot applications. The move drew the ire of President Donald Trump, who threatened to hold up federal funding.

Only when her daily Dunkin Donuts delivery is coming down her street

She reminds me so much of Marvel Comics’ Black Mariah.

no wonder they see electoral fraud as a worry for Dems only.
National director of illegal alien voting and assorted other non-citizen voting.
#7. Is she 20 months pregnant? Looks like it, or she’s doing a new Alka Seltzer commercial (remember the original one?) with the slogan, “You can believe I ate the whole thing”.
#13. The lady definitely is a “Post-It Girl” for “I Voted”.
I think she borrowed Jerry NoNadler’s pants.
