  • Forum: a Child of an Era of Fear
    Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2018 11:20 AM To: Maxine Grad Subject: Bob Williamson shares Hailey Napier's powerful letter from the VALLEY NEWS Dear Chair Maxine Grad, Below is Hailey Napier’s letter from the VALLEY NEWS. Hailey eloquently expresses how today’s youngsters feel when mass shootings occur and lawmakers do little to address the lethal problem. Best, Bob Williamson…And here’s the letter: http://www.vnews.com/ Forum: A Child of an Era of Fear When I was 12 years old, I began scanning for exits at every movie theater I went to and carefully thought through escape scenarios as the previews played. I assessed the space between the seats and the floor. Would I be able to crawl between the armrest and the wall unseen? That was the year of the Aurora shooting. If you don’t remember the details, 12 people were murdered in a Century 16 theater in Aurora, Colo.. They were watching The Dark Knight Rises. I had begged to see the movie myself, and as I read the headlines online, I realized that innocent people had died, and that I could easily have been one of them. I am a child of an era of fear. Born almost exactly a year after Columbine, I grew up with the pitch black, unspoken terror of lockdown drills. Hiding in corners and closets and behind desks, as if turning the lights off will convince a killer that school’s been canceled on a Tuesday in May; as if a bookshelf will protect me from the rain of bullets driven by some arbitrary vendetta against society.

Both men submitted letters of resignation immediately after learning that Alderman Jacques Roberge had lost his re-election bid to Mr. Chenette. “At this time and under the current conditions I can no longer serve,” both men wrote in submitting their immediate resignations. Mr. Morrissette had another year left in his term, and North Country Union High School seniors Dana Marsh, left, and Dawson Cote carry the championship banner Mr. Vincent had just been re-elected with the leading the Falcons hockey team in a victory lap around the ice at Gutterson Field House on Thursday in highest vote total in the four-way contest.

  • NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY the Electoral Success And
    NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY The Electoral Success and Representation of Minorities: Different Cost of Voting Scenarios A Capstone Submitted to the University Honors Program In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Baccalaureate Degree With Honors Department Of Political Science By Shalisha Hill DeKalb, Illinois June 6, 2021 Hill 1 HONORS CAPSTONE ABSTRACT This research tests whether minorities are underrepresented in state legislatures due to restrictive state election laws that hinder voting. Some states like Oregon make it easier for citizens to vote and other states like Texas make it more difficult. The Cost of Voting Index (COVI) is a measurement of the electoral/institutional restrictiveness of each state and values are available for presidential election years from 1996 to 2020. Previous research has revealed that the amount of voting restrictions that citizens face makes it harder for them to vote (Li, Pomante Schraufnagel, 2018). What is less understood is whether restrictions hurt Blacks and Latinos running for statewide offices. This research will test whether the COVI can help predict voting margins, which in turn will reveal how successful minority candidates will be in states that are less restrictive or more restrictive. Broadly, the purpose of this research is to understand the electoral success of minorities and how the COVI helps to explain their success. Most specifically, the research question I examine is, does the restrictiveness of each state’s electoral/institutional climate help explain the relative underrepresentation of minorities in government? In other words, can the restrictiveness of state election laws help explain a lack of representation of Blacks and Latinos in elected offices? Hill 2 Introduction Aside from voter turnout, at either the aggregate or individual level, I look to examine the electoral success of minority candidates who run for public office.

We seek to make environmental protection a top priority for elected officials, candidates, and voters. HOW THE VOTES WERE SELECTED T his scorecard is based on the legislative priorities of the environmental and conservation organizations that form the Vermont Environmental Collaborative as well as other environmental issues. Determining factors in the decision to list particular votes include whether the vote was substantive or procedural in nature, and which vote had the greatest effect on the outcome of the legislation. Please note the limitations of this report. Only roll call votes have been included, as voice votes are not recorded by name. A simple numeric score beside a legislator’s name cannot convey the depth of discussions about the issues, nor can it clearly indicate which legislators worked to protect the environment and which legislators worked to undermine environmental protections. This is particularly true when it comes to work done in the committee room. HOW THE VOTES WERE SCORED T he scores were calculated by dividing the number of pro-environmental votes made by the number of votes the legislator had the opportunity to cast. Absences were counted as a negative vote. Votes during which the Speaker of the House or the President Pro-Tem of the Senate presided over their bodies, were not counted either way.
