Dear fellow Republican activists:

Many of you know me from my previous employment at the Republican Party of Minnesota. I am also a BPOU chair, state convention delegate, and state-central committee delegate.

Recently you received an email from Sue Jeffers' campaign manager, Dan Coleman, comparing the procedures of the Republican Party of Minnesota to a tactic used to disenfranchise African Americans, Native Americans, and select whites from voting.
