Politico on Coates
Politico on the Coates testimony here:
"Coates’ highly-charged testimony before the Civil Rights Commission echoed those allegations, as well as the testimony of J. Christian Adams, one of Coates’ colleagues in the voting rights section. However, Coates’s charges may carry greater weight because he worked decades ago as an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, has won awards from civil rights groups and lacks the partisan GOP resume of the department’s harshest opponents."
Of course the testimony was identical. Hat tip to Len Dawson for flagging the story.

Maybe the US should ask for outside, impartial observers at our voting centers in 2010?
