DOJ employee reviewing voter ID law calls Mississippi “disgusting and shameful”
As major legislative actions in Mississippi like redistricting and voter ID hinge on approval from the Department of Justice, whether the state gets a fair review is being called into question, thanks to facebook.
According to a blogger from PJ Media, a woman by the name of Stephanie Celandine Gyamfi allegedly posted a comment on the site which reads “disgusting and shameful. Hey, that should replace the state motto… Mississippi: Disgusting and Shameful… Forget the magnolia state motto.”
On the Department of Justice website, Gyamfi is one of the people responsible for reviewing whether voting changes meet the requirements of Section Five of the Voting Rights Act.
Three on your side contacted the department and even reached out to Gyamfi about the alleged comment, but no response has been given.
