Remember the old days, when the big news of the day was that Clint Eastwood came out in support of Mike Bloomberg?

I can’t believe you picked up that detail and remembered it! That is some next-level movie trivia recall.

Unless you’re from there, in which case, still impressive.

Here’s hoping that Donnie gets a coronavirus infection from shaking Mike Pence’s hand!

I worked in a movie theater when Pulp Fiction was making the rounds. I must have seen it some 50 times. Vincent’s UCSC shirt always stuck with me for some reason.

Yeah, one of these things is not like the other. Being neither black nor SCian, I don’t feel I can or will speak for them, but I would love to hear the logic of this.

It appears that I will have to vote in Illinois for the primary after all, not Indiana, but I did all the research thinking I would have to vote in Indiana. In Illinois, when you walk in the polling station for the primary, they will ask you which ballot you want – D, R, or I – but it’s not recorded against your name, and there is no requirement that you show any allegiance to the party ballot you’ve chosen. In Indiana, you have to register with a party, and that is the primary ballot you will be given, and you have to swear/confirm that you will vote for that same party in the general election. There are so many ways this information can be used against someone, by their boss, spouse, etc.

I say all this as preamble to the following article, which explains the many ways this is a bad thing when it is required of religious leaders (and certain religious groups in general). Apparently Minnesota is now like Indiana, in requiring both a formal assignment of party to anyone who wishes to vote, and in requiring voters to pledge “general agreement with the principles of the party” whose ballot they pick.

Wow. That seriously violates the entire idea of a confidential ballot.

And the fun part is that after you vote in the Illinois primary, your party allegiance* becomes public record.

  • as in, what ballot you chose that day
