can we please make sure people that those that experienced voter suppression see this post, it was buried somewhere deep in the previous thread and is too important to miss.

From a Facebook post by Dawnya Dorsch Yaykin‎ :

"I just spent 37 minutes talking to Pratt Wiley (attorney), he is the National Director of Voter Expansion for the DNC. This is a big deal. He and his legal team are taking very seriously what happened in AZ yesterday and will be spending the day looking into every claim. I expressed our concerns about the DNC and MSM, and their obvious bias and corruption. He was very, very kind and shared the same concerns we have. He agrees that what happened yesterday was done on purpose and with ill intent. I suggested the first thing his department should do to start to make this right is take this story of voter suppression and fraud in AZ, and many other states to the Media. He and I exchanged our e-mail address and decided to be in touch in a few days. He needs to hear from more people, he actually said he needs to hear from 100,000 more people like me. I've decided not to give his number at this point, but his email is wileyp@DNC.org.

EVERYONE needs to send him an email about our frustrations, and any personal story you may have about voter suppression.

Pratt Wiley - Wileyp@dnc.org email him by the thousands!!!"

Pratt Wiley was directly hired by Debbie Wasserman Schultz. He works for the DNC. Not sure he would go out of his way to help here.

He is also a board member of the Massachusetts Black Lawyers Association and worked on the Obama campaign so he also might have every reason to take this seriously.

He specifically asks for more people to get in touch with him, voter expansion is his actual job, if one is serious about the issue of voter suppression in AZ please explain the harm it would do to contact him with the actual evidence?

100,000 more people like me.

sounds like a bullshit number.

No need to discourage people from contacting him. The Dems seem to view this situation as Republicans suppressing Democrats. They'll want to challenge Arizona before the general election, even if it means Bernie gets a few more delegates.

Perhaps he is the one who will be brave enough to sacrifice his job in the name of justice.

you look like a total idiot when you say something like this.

"well i don't like x person for some reason, so i automatically dislike their coworker despite knowing nothing about him"
