#RightWing activists & allies of #Trump are quietly challenging thousands of #VoterRegistrations in critical #BattlegroundStates, an all-but-unnoticed effort that could have an impact in a close or contentious #election.

Calling themselves #ElectionInvestigators, the activists have pressed local ofcls in #Michigan, #Nevada & #Georgia to drop #voters from the rolls en masse.

Activists can then use the data to assemble lists of #voters to challenge. The program also tracks the outcome of the challenge & whether a voter later tries to #vote, info that could be shared w/ #election officials or #law enforcement….

“That’s just garbage,” Chris Thomas, an #elections consultant for #Detroit, said of the analysis. “It’s targeting #LowIncome [voters], #immigrants & #students.”

My rent last year was over $12k and my income was $17k. I don't know how I made it. But I literally did end up with nutrient deficiencies and diseases so maybe I didn't make it.

"Two of the best-selling baby-food brands marketed by Nestlé in low- and middle-income countries contain high levels of added sugar, while such products are sugar free in its home country, Switzerland. These are the key findings of an investigation by Public Eye and the International Baby Food Action Network (IBFAN)."
