ACRU’s Blackwell: S1, the Corrupt Politicians Act, Would Make Pennsylvania Chaos an Election Norm

ACRU’s Blackwell: How low will Democrats go on pushing Jim Crow narrative?
Many on the left claim that voting integrity measures, such as voter ID, are throwbacks to the Jim Crow era.

As the old saying goes, “they have a lot of nerve.”

ACRU’s Blackwell: American Exceptionalism in Crosshairs of Radical Left
ACRU'S Amb. Ken Blackwell is the face of today's battle for liberty and the very essence of our rights -- which are being chipped away by the left and their political allies. As Amb.
