#Shane Hamlin

[dontmeantobepoliticalbut]

First to leave was Louisiana, followed by Alabama.

Then, in one fell swoop, Florida, Missouri and West Virginia announced on Monday that they would drop out of a bipartisan network of about 30 states that helps maintain accurate voter rolls, one that has faced intensifying attacks from election deniers and right-wing media.

Ohio may not be far behind, according to a letter sent to the group Monday from the state’s chief election official, Frank LaRose. Mr. LaRose and his counterparts in the five states that left the group are all Republicans.

For more than a year, the Electronic Registration Information Center, a nonprofit organization known as ERIC, has been hit with false claims from allies of former President Donald J. Trump who say it is a voter registration vehicle for Democrats that received money from George Soros, the liberal billionaire and philanthropist, when it was created in 2012.

Mr. Trump even chimed in on Monday, urging all Republican governors to sever ties with the group, brlessly claiming in a Truth Social media post that it “pumps the rolls” for Democrats.

The Republicans who announced their states were leaving the group cited complaints about governance issues, chiefly that it mails newly eligible voters who have not registered ahead of federal elections. They also accused the group of opening itself up to a partisan influence.

In an interview on Tuesday, Jay Ashcroft, a Republican who is Missouri’s secretary of state, said that the group had balked at his state’s calls for reforms, some of which were expected to be weighed by the group’s board of directors at a meeting on March 17. He denied that the decision to pull out was fueled by what the organization and its defenders have described as a right-wing smear campaign.

“It’s not like I was antagonistic toward cleaning our voter rolls,” Mr. Ashcroft said.

Shane Hamlin, the group’s executive director, did not comment about particular complaints of the states in an email on Tuesday, but referred to an open letter that he wrote on March 2 saying that the organization had been the subject of substantial misinformation regarding the nature of its work and who has access to voter lists.

Defenders of the group lamented the departures, saying they would weaken the group’s information-sharing efforts and undermine it financially because of lost dues. And, they said, the defections conflict with the election integrity mantra that has motivated Republicans since Mr. Trump’s defeat in 2020.

Republicans haven’t always been so sour about the work of the coalition, which Louisiana left in 2022.

It was just last year that Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida mentioned the group’s benefit to his state, which he described as useful for checking voter rolls during a news conference announcing the highly contentious arrests of about 20 people on voter fraud charges. He was joined then by Cord Byrd, Florida’s secretary of state, a fellow Republican who, on Monday, was expressing a much different opinion. In an announcement that Florida was leaving the group, Mr. Byrd said that the state’s concerns about data security and “partisan tendencies” had not been addressed.

“Therefore, we have lost confidence in ERIC,” Mr. Byrd said.

Representatives for Mr. DeSantis, who is considering a Republican run for President, did not respond to a request for comment.

Mr. LaRose, in Ohio, also had a stark shift in tone: After recently describing the group to reporters as imperfect but still “one of the best fraud-fighting tools that we have,” by Monday he was also calling for reforms and put the group on notice.

“Anything short of the reforms mentioned above will result in action up to and including our withdrawal from membership,” Mr. LaRose wrote. “I implore you to do the right thing.”

The complaints about partisanship seem centered on David Becker, a former Justice Department lawyer who helped develop the group and is a nonvoting board member. Mr. Ashcroft said he didn’t think that Mr. Becker, a former director of the elections program at the Pew Charitable Trusts who has vocally debunked election fraud claims, including disputing Mr. Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, should be on the board.

Mr. Becker is the founder and director of the Center for Election Innovation and Research, another nonpartisan group that has been attacked by election deniers.

“There’s truth and there’s lies,” Mr. Becker said on a video call with reporters on Tuesday. “I will continue to stand for the truth.”

Mr. Hamlin vowed that the organization would “continue our work on behalf of our remaining member states in improving the accuracy of America’s voter rolls and increasing access to voter registration for all eligible citizens.”

While some Republican states are ending their relationship with the group, California, the nation’s most populous state, could potentially join its ranks under a bill proposed by a Democratic state lawmaker. But in Texas, a Republican lawmaker has introduced a bill with the opposite intention.

Still, Sam Taylor, a spokesman for Texas’s Republican secretary of state, said in an email on Tuesday that “We are not currently aware of any system comparable to ERIC, but are open to learning about other potentially viable, cost-effective alternatives.”

New York, another heavily populated state, is also not a member of the group.

Seven states started the organization more than a decade ago. It charges new members a one-time fee of $25,000 and annual dues that are partly set by the citizen voting age population in each state. The Pew Charitable Trusts provided seed funding to the group, but that money was separate from donations that it had received from Mr. Soros, according to the website PolitiFact.

Shenna Bellows, a Democrat who is Maine’s secretary of state, said in an interview on Tuesday that the group had been particularly helpful in identifying voters who have died or may no longer live in the state, which became a member in 2021.

“We have a lot of Mainers who retire to Florida for example,” Ms. Bellows said.

Ms. Bellows called the recent defections “tragic” and said that her office had received several inquiries from residents who had read criticism of the group online.

“Unfortunately, this move by our colleagues in Florida and elsewhere to leave ERIC in part because of misinformation being spread by election deniers deprives all of us of the ability to effectively clean our voter rolls and fight voter fraud,” she said.

Tagging Formula 1 to reach everybody!

This weekend, NASCAR is racing a street course in downtown Chicago for only the second time. Let's be real, most of these guys still aren't with it when it comes to a street course.

So if you're a racing fan and want to watch something with massive silliness potential, I encourage you to tune in if you're awake! The Xfinity race is at 3:30 Eastern time today and the big Cup race is tomorrow at 4:30 Eastern.

(If you're worried about cheering on a problematic driver, I suggest sticking to Trackhouse, 23XI, JR Motorsports, and Kaulig, or doing a suuuuper deep dive on whoever you pick. It's a minefield, and there's a lot of shitty people. 😅 My personal friends' safe group for Cup is Ross Chastain, Daniel Suarez, Austin Cindric, Shane Van Gisbergen, Tyler Reddick, Bubba Wallace, Denny Hamlin, Ryan Blaney, and a reformed Chase Elliott.)

Happy to answer questions if you're not familiar with NASCAR since it's been my thing for over thirty years I'm so old help.

When your partner comes out as transgender

The Guardian tells the stories about couples where one partner came out as trans.

I sometimes remind myself that life is hard for most people. We do our best to help those we love when they are struggling. Often that works. Sometimes it does not. That is the way life is.

Closeted trans people need to know that many  relationships not only survives, but also become stronger after a partner comes out as transgender. I am lucky to have a partner that stood by me when I came out as trans, so I know!

Still, although I do not accept transphobia, I will not condemn partners who find out that this is too much for them. That is also the way life is.

The Guardian presents several couples of this kind, including relationships that grew stronger as the transgender partner was allowed to express themselves.

Tom Gaebel (top photo, right)  became the partner  Allie Velasquez (top left). At the time Allie was presenting as a gay man. (Photo Shane Lavalette)

One day Allie said, “If you are serious about me, then this is something you need to know.”

Tom put his life on hold while Allie transitioned. His family did not approve.

Tom says:

We had a six-month hiatus to consider if the compromises this relationship was asking of us were worth it. I learned that I didn’t fall in love with a gender, I fell in love with a person. I came back to Allie a month before the hiatus was due to end. I didn’t want to see her experience this new life alone, or with somebody else.

When Allie transitioned, the sadness and anger went, and this beautiful person popped out. People have very strong opinions in this arena, but after they meet Allie, they completely change them. Allie and my mother are the closest of friends now. My gay friends are in love with her. People assume we’re a straight couple. We take full advantage of that. Before Allie transitioned, she was scared of public displays of affection. Now we hold hands everywhere we go.

Now they are engaged.

Barbara found out that her partner was a trans woman when they both were in their late forties.  She says;

Gradually, it dawned on me that Jane had a real need, and it wasn’t going to go away. We went to Sparkle, a trans event in Manchester, in 2011. We had such a lovely time, and Jane wore her Jane clothes all the way home. We stopped at a National Trust property on the way back and nobody batted an eyelid. By the time we got to our local Sainsbury’s, we had more or less decided we had to do this. There was no point in hiding any longer. We were into our 60s, so why not just go for it? I was probably quite quiet while I took on board all the implications...

We go everywhere together as Barbara and Jane. We’re constantly coming out, because we meet new people all the time. There’s a lot of staring, but I’ve got used to that. Jane plays guitar at open-mic nights in local pubs. I go along to suss out people, see that they’re treating her right. I have seen what it is like for a person with gender dysphoria before transition, and how happy that person is as her real self. That is hard for anyone who hasn’t seen both sides to understand. As a feminist, I am concerned that women are still getting a bad deal. But I have been with a trans person through all this debate on their identity, and trans people deserve equal rights.

Hamlin—Shane loves and hates his best friend, a mischief demon, in equal measure. But when the demon takes it upon himself to play matchmaker, Shane thinks the hate might just win out. Sussicran: A Love Story by Melissa Snowdon—Eager to escape an otherworldly bet, mirror demon Llednew determines to steal the life of a lonely young man. But executing his brilliant idea proves to be more difficult than anticpated. A Spell for Luck by Daria Defore—When he's forced to spend the summer studying magic at his aunt's house, a bored Tom promptly starts looking for any way to escape. He probably shouldn't resort to making a deal with an extremely friendly demon, but he's too curious to say no... Kneadful Things by Laurin Kelly—When Adam answers an ad for work at a local bakery, he has no idea what he's in for. Despite the storefront's dilapidated condition and isolated location, a steady stream of customers come through hoping to find what they're looking for from Jin, the mysterious owner.
