The Kansas Republican Party finally responded to questions about the email they sent out on Friday which gloated about their use of illegal voter suppression techniques. Unfortunately, we don't get to hear anything from the man who sent the email, KSGOP Chairman Kris Kobach. Instead we have to settle for this explanation from Executive Director Christian Morgan:
“It’s just a term of art,” Morgan said of caging voters.
'Term of art', now where have I heard that before? Somewhere... hmmm ... Oh yeah! It was here.
Caging, as Rep. Chris Cannon (R-UT) "helpfully pointed out, 'is a term of art in mailhouses' – it refers to the place where letters go when they have no address, all batched up in a separate room."
Little hint here KSGOP, when trying to cover-up your coordinated voter suppression as just another meaningless gaffe, try and avoid using language that might further implicate you. It's alright though, it's not like anyone is following this story.
