Another victory for voting justice, just in time for July Fourth: Jim Walsh’s IP26-500 voter elimination scheme fails to qualify
Walsh's initiative sought to force Washington's thirty-nine counties to carry out a mass purge of the voter rolls before the 2027 general election. Despite using party resources for promotion, Walsh couldn't gather enough signatures by the July 2nd due date. He was left to watch as Brian Heywood submitted signatures for a measure to overturn the million-dollar earners tax while his own measure died.

Sense narrowly prevails at SCOTUS as Roberts, Barrett, and the liberals uphold birthright citizenship over right wing dissents
On June 30th, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment in a split decision, affirming that children born in the U.S. are citizens, whether or not their parents have citizenship or not. The ruling hopefully has the effect of ending Donald Trump's attempts to overturn this sacred constitutional guarantee.

VICTORY! Democracy wins, authoritarians lose as laws allowing postmarked ballots to count are upheld in SCOTUS stunner
In the case of Watson v. Republican National Committee, the Court's six member right wing bloc splintered. Two of the bloc joined with the liberals to hold that the federal election-day statutes (3 U. S. C. §1, 2 U. S. C. §§ 1, 7) "do not prevent Mississippi from counting absentee ballots postmarked by election day but received up to five days thereafter; nothing in the federal election-day statutes requires ballots to be received by election day." This means Washington, Oregon, and other states can keep counting ballots with a timely postmark that are delivered after Election Day. VICTORY! Democracy wins, authoritarians lose as laws allowing postmarked ballots to count are upheld in SCOTUS stunner is a post from NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the journal of the Northwest Progressive Institute.
