I wish I could tell 16 year old me — so eager to tell big, important stories — that one day I'd be able to tell a major news network that what's happening in a small county in Virginia was important and they'd say, cool, go tell stories, we'll send a crew.

I asked a Montgomery County, AL election official how just 2,000 of 6500 voters who were sent false voter information in January got corrected mailers after the problem was identified "We may have just made an assumption at the time," he told me. "We didn't really check."

Baseless fraud claims drove out the entire elections staff of Buckingham County, Va. Then they hired a registrar who had advanced those very claims. It didn't go well. My latest:

This concept continues to confuse people – men, mostly men – about when “six weeks of pregnancy” actually happens. So I thought, maybe a thread would help, so political twitter can stop arguing about basic medical facts. 1/
