Corruption: The crash-prone government health-care site asks applicants if they want to register to vote as they try to sign up for ObamaCare. By sheer coincidence, a plurality of the uninsured are likely Democratic voters.
Call it Motor Voter on steroids — the piggybacking of voter registration to an otherwise unrelated government function.
Those trying to navigate Healthcare.gov, a website that looks and functions as if designed by the department of motor vehicles, are being asked if they want to register to vote just in time for crucial 2014 midterm elections that are likely to be a referendum on ObamaCare.
Indeed, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services spokesman Brian Cook cites the Motor Voter law, also known as the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, as justification.
The law, he said, "requires states to offer voter registration (at) all offices that provide 'public assistance' (including Medicaid applications). Because people applying on Healthcare.gov could be eligible for either Medicaid or Marketplace coverage, we will be providing info on voter registration to people who request it."
It perhaps has not escaped the attention of an administration that used another government agency, the IRS, to harass and intimidate potential political opponents in the Tea Party and other conservative groups that the uninsured are a potential treasure trove of Democratic voters, according to an August 2012 Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation poll.
It found that uninsured Americans supported Barack Obama over Republican Mitt Romney more than 2-to-1 (62% to 27%).
"The (website) launch has not gone well," observed Nick Novak, a spokesman for the John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy, who noticed the voter-registration question on the Wisconsin site. "Why are they cluttering up the site?"

The devil just doesn’t seem to want to play fair...
Having but a short time he appears quite desperate.
Everything these asshats do, is designed to further the cause of socialism/communism.
So it's a law is it. Well now, isn't this special. Here we have the "takers" being signed up to vote. These are the same people who have such a hard time voting because of voter I.D. Conservatives better find a way to get more voters too. Is it any wonder we lost the last election.
You’re absolutely right and its never been as flagrant since 0bummer was elected, the socialists/communists/Marxists don’t even try to hide it.
Little doubt the supporters of the turkey in the WH would check those boxes.
Do they register them to vote before or after they get the premium cost?
This could backfire bigtime on the Dems.
These fn b*******
Lets hope it backfires bigtime.
They are stacking the deck.
In this world, but not the next.
Keep the Faith, FRiend!
You can bet your a$$ that they tested the daylights out of THAT feature; it is probably about as reliable as nuclear power plant SCADA systems.
My daughter registered to vote through the BMV. They never asked her what party - just automatically registered her as a Democrat. She has never voted for a D since she registered. So, yeah, this is what they do - just automocatically register new voters for the D party - so they will vote that way. Or hope they do.
Republicans will NOT get the health care that Democrats will get.....they KNOW how we vote and who we give money to.
BINGO!!!
