“Professor Hasen is just wrong and doesn’t understand Americans Elect… [The group] is purely a nominating process that is putting the power directly into the hands of every registered voter.’’

–Kahlil Bird of Americans Elect, emailing with the Boston Globe.  I’m still awaiting a detailed rebuttal to the claims in my Politico oped: (1) the group has offered no reason to fail to disclose its donors; (2) its internet election plans are troubling because they are insecure; and (3) the group’s by-laws and draft rules allow the Board to overrule voters who participate in choosing a candidate.
