GOP Boasts About "Caging" Efforts

In a recent e-mail to party supporters, Kansas GOP Chair Kris Kobach bragged about the Republican Party's efforts at "caging" voters.

In an e-mail message sent to state Republicans, Kansas Republican Party Chairman Kris Kobach reviewed the party’s accomplishments this year.

In the message, he states: “To date, the Kansas GOP has identified and caged more voters in the last 11 months than the previous two years.”

Mike Gaughan, executive director of the Kansas Democratic Party, said, “Vote caging is a pretty direct form of voter suppression.”
