poltr1 | In my best Earl Pitts voice.....

Y'know what make me sick? Y'know what makes me so angry? It's when political parties gum up the works of voting, our most sacred duty.

The irregularities of the election in 2004 in Ohio is well-documented. Read here. And here. To recap:
1) Voting machines in inner-city precincts were either missing or non-functioning.
2) The building where the votes in Warren County were tabulated was put under a federal lockdown, citing a terrorist threat that turned out to be bogus.

I recently heard through the grapevine that there's an effort by the elephant dung flingers to disallow voter registrations that are received during the last week of voter registration season, potentially disenfranching voters yet again. Here's the scoop from Jeremy Bird,General Election Director of Ohio Campaign for Change: "You may have heard that last Friday, the Ohio Republican Party filed a lawsuit to block Buckeyes from casting absentee ballots if they register between September 30th and October 6th—the exact period of overlap when voter registration ends and absentee voting begins. Once again, Republican political operatives are attempting to disenfranchise Ohio voters."

It makes me so mad I want to throw a wrench in the Republican poltical machine.

Wake Up America!
