Wiley Nickel on Government Reform

 

 


Fight those who intimidate voters or suppress the vote

We've seen endless attacks on our voting rights and our constitutional rights. As District Attorney Wiley will aggressively prosecute anyone who tries to interfere with our elections. That means holding anyone accountable who tries to intimidate voters, suppress the vote or attack our democratic process. He'll use the full power of the office to defend voting rights and protect our constitutional freedoms. Wiley will always fight to ensure that every citizen's constitutional rights are protected.

Fight gerrymandering; overturn Citizens United

Fixing American democracy means continuing the work I've done in the State Senate to fight back against gerrymandering. We need to overturn Citizens United to curb this unlimited spending by special interests, force Super PACs to disclose their "dark money" donors, and improve ethics requirements for both candidates and campaigns. By reforming our elections, we can bring back a healthy American democracy.
