Back to news from Kansas:
Kobach calls out ‘communist League of Women Voters’

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach labeled the ACLU and the League of Women Voters as “communists” for challenging the state’s voter ID law, The Tonganoxie Mirror reports.

Kobach, who pushed for the law, which requires voters to show proof of citizenship in order to register, made the comments Saturday at the convention of the Kansas Republican Party. He made sure those in attendance knew where he stood when commenting about challenges to the law by the American Civil Liberties Union and League of Women Voters.

“The ACLU and their fellow communist friends, the League of Women Voters — you can quote me on that, the communist League of Women Voters — the ACLU and the communist League of Women Voters sued,” Kobach said.
