Large numbers of U.S. citizens convicted and serving time in county jails are legally eligible to vote under California law in the November 2018 mid-term elections. California’s constitution specifically denies voting rights to anyone in prison or on parole from prison, but Gov. "Moonbeam" Jerry Brown signed a criminal justice “realignment” law in 2011 that redirects state prisoners convicted of drug trafficking, burglary, auto theft, embezzlement, and non-serious, non-violent, or non-sexual crimes to serve their sentences in county jails.
Transferred inmates filed a successful lawsuit in 2014 against the California Secretary of State, (Scott v. Bowen), for the restoration of their voting rights, based on the state constitution not specifically using the word “jail.” The California Democrat Party has been canvassing jails statewide, registering inmates to vote.

The ballyhooed secret testimony by Rod Rosenstein before a four-man panel of the House would be by far the biggest sham and scam perpetrated on the American public in over 100 years. The way the "interview" was set up, the Republicans were made to look like absolute cretins. Thankfully, they postponed the event at the last minute.
A dog’s life expectancy and risk of developing serious illnesses have been linked to the color of their coats. Australian research has probed the health outcomes for Labradors, one of the world’s most popular canine breeds. It found that chocolate labs live significantly shorter lives than their
black and yellow cousins and have more diseases. I wonder what effect this theory has on blue dogs, like the ones they have in Congress.
