What Went Down On Night 3 Of The RNC
As Karen Pence speaks, it strikes me that Doug Emhoff, Kamala Harris’s husband, didn’t speak at the DNC.
I’m honestly not sure if McEnany’s appearance at the RNC is a Hatch Act violation. The website of the Office of the Special Counsel categorizes her as a “less restricted employee.” It says she is not allowed to “engage in political activity – i.e., activity directed at the success or failure of a political party, candidate for partisan political office, or partisan political group – while [she] is on duty.” But it also says she is allowed to “make campaign speeches for candidates in partisan elections.” This seems … inconsistent?
I agree, Nate. School choice is an issue that could theoretically win over some voters who wouldn’t traditionally give the GOP much of a chance. For example, studies show Black and Hispanic Democrats are more supportive of charter schools than white Democrats.
