In a statement today, Tova Wang of the
Century Foundation says in part, “Over the last few
weeks, there has been a developing controversy in the press
and in the Congress over a report on voter fraud and voter
intimidation I co-authored for the Election Assistance
Commission (“EAC”). It has been my desire to
participate in this discussion and share my experience as a
researcher, expert and co-author of the report.
Unfortunately, the EAC has barred me from speaking. Early
last week, through my attorney, I sent a letter to the
Commission requesting that they release me from this gag
order. Despite repeated follow-up, the EAC has failed to
respond to this simple request. In the meantime, not only
can I not speak to the press or public -- it is unclear
under the terms of my contract with the EAC whether I can
even answer questions from members of Congress.”
