Watch out for voting shenanigans by the Republicans again this year. You can bet that Republicans will again try prevent anyone who might vote for Obama from doing so if they can.
They’s already started in Michigan. Peter Dreier wrote this in The Nation:
James Carabelli, chairman of the Republican Party of Macomb County outside Detroit, said, “We will have a list of foreclosed homes and will make sure people aren’t voting from those addresses,” the Michigan Messenger.comreported September 10. Barack Obama’s campaign and the Democratic Party quickly filed a lawsuit in federal court on behalf of three Michigan residents who lost their houses to foreclosure, to stop the Michigan GOP from carrying out what Democrats called an “ugly” and “horrific” plan. Michigan is a key swing state where a few thousand votes could determine who wins its seventeen Electoral College votes.
Here we go again. Keep a sharp eye out for this kind of stuff. Republicans don’t care how they win as long as they win.
And I still don’t trust touch-screen voting machines without paper trails.
