How Catherine Engelbrecht Got Greg Abbott To Shut Down A Houston Voter Registration Drive

And it’s all just a hop, skip and jump from creepy Ken Blackwell (who knows a thing or two about voter suppression and fraud from his Ohio shenanigans) and the ever-delightful Ginni Thomas and her band of merry miscreants at Groundswell.

One of the influential conservatives guiding the group is Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, a columnist for the Daily Caller and a tea party consultant and lobbyist. Other Groundswell members include John Bolton, the former UN ambassador; Frank Gaffney, the president of the Center for Security Policy; Ken Blackwell and Jerry Boykin of the Family Research Council; Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch; Gayle Trotter, a fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum; Catherine Engelbrecht and Anita MonCrief of True the Vote; Allen West, the former GOP House member; Sue Myrick, also a former House GOPer; Diana Banister of the influential Shirley and Banister PR firm; and Max Pappas, a top aide to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
