Over at my sister site Equality Talk, I detail the story of yesterday's submission of signatures in Oklahoma for the Oklahoma Civil Rights Initiative (OkCRI). I'll let that site do the work, but wanted to alert my readers here to the important national story. Not only is Oklahoma abuzz with the story of being the first of the 5 states in 2008 turn in signatures, but it is abuzz with a long-running signature-gathering and petition-rights suppression story with the Attorney General seeking to crush Paul Jacob and others for a signature-drive in 2005 (documented in ZR's previous entry here), arguing that they should be jailed for 10 years for using what he defines as out-of-state circulators.
