This is a video from my new show, Counterpoint PA, the only grassroots progressive newscast exclusively about Pennsylvania politics.

In Counterpoint PA's homage to Keith Olbermann (starting at 8:16), after recently giving progressives a win on LGBT equality by saying she won't defend the state marriage equality ban, PA Attorney General Kathleen Kane (D) lets us down on voting rights by saying that she will defend the voter ID law that could suppress voter turnout by the hundreds of thousands and disproportionately disenfranchise minorities, which is a violation of the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

I recently posted on Democratic Underground about the voter ID law trial that just ended which you can check out to get the full story.

http://counterpointpa.org/ was infected with malware for a day or two, but it's fixed now - my apologies for that and for this video being out a couple days late, and my thanks to Democratic Underground and all my viewers for working with me through my technical difficulties (I very desperately need a new microphone)...this is, after all, a grassroots show in the grassiest rootiest sense of the word for now.
