*obviously since the GOP never wins when theirs high voter turnout the only thing they can do is intimidate new voters


In election news, Republican officials in Ohio have formalized plans to send thousands of paid recruits to go to polling places on Election Day to challenge the qualifications of voters in heavily Democratic urban areas. This according to a report in the New York Times. Republicans have registered 3,600 election monitors in Ohio each of whom will be paid $100 to work on election day. The Democrats have registered about 2,000 monitors. Already the Republicans have challenged the voting eligibility of 35,000 registered voters in Ohio.

Great. We had the upper hand as we could call the GOP liars, then we get people like MKULTRA.

Damn right.

Just makes up for 150 yrs of the demoncrats cheating.

Challenging eligibility does not equal terrorizing children.

let us remember West Virginia in the 1800's, a state which always went democratic back then. For three pres elections in a row they had in excess of 100% turnout, with the highest being 118%

when its being done to suppress the vote it is a direct assault on Democracy itself-whose gonna Liberate America under the despot Bush?

Damn right.

Just makes up for 150 yrs of the demoncrats cheating.Aaurgh! *cough**sputter* Don't post jokes like that when I'm drinking! I just passed half a can of soda out my nose!


I know that was a joke, right?

Let us remember that the old Democrats of the south would now be considered Republicans, and the Republicans of the north would now be considered Democrats.

Now come on, get off this party conspiracy crap you two!

Damn right.

Just so you know...the parties switched platforms during the civil rights movement. I wouldn't bother insulting the parties for anything before then, you're most likely insulting your ideological ancestors.

Modern day Democrats have had various cheating incidents, more notorious than Republicans. I can't remember which ones, though I think there was one with Johnson.

Yep. KULT, quit being so krazy and fringe like!
You f*cking drama queen, you. :p

Lets not say anything about 2000 now, that was different, it was the Republicans so it was OK.

Damn right.

Am I the only one who finds it odd that a hardcore christian would use that line of reasoning?

The only votes the Republicans want to supress are fradulent ones. Like, say, Mary Poppins or any of her friends registered as voters in Ohio by the "volunteers" from the NAACP paid with crack cocaine for each fradulent voter they deliver.

How do you know Mary Poppins wasnt a registered democrat her whole life? and I suppose republican firms pretending to be neutral and throwing democratic ballots into the garbage can are any better?

You know. Mary poppins could be someones real name.
