If she really had “commitment to election integrity,” she’d resign from office never to be seen again.

But Republicans have neither integrity or ethics so…

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Montana’s highest court on Wednesday struck down four laws that the state’s Republican-led legislature passed in 2021 to restrict voting.

The laws “violate the fundamental right to vote provided to all citizens by the Montana Constitution,” according to a summary of the majority opinion that was signed by four of the seven justices.

“While Republican politicians continue to attack voting rights and our protected freedoms, their voter suppression efforts failed and were struck down as unconstitutional.”

“The Secretary is devastated by this decision but assures Montanans that her commitment to election integrity will not waver by this narrow adoption of judicial activism that is certain to fall on the wrong side of history,” Jacobsen’s office said in a statement.

The Supreme Court opinion said the law targeting ballot-collection services “takes away the only option to vote for a significant number of Native Americans living on reservations.”

“Victory in a lawsuit is not just about winning in the courtroom, but it’s about upholding justice and defending the truth and restoring balance,” said Ronnie Jo Horse, executive director of Western Native Voice, one of the plaintiffs.

“Small government” has been reduced to “select few government”.
