One thing they barely mention is the community organizing strategy of Obama/ Democrats . I believe their precinct captains are given a quota and no matter what will turn out that number. With driving people around from place to place to vote multiple times, they’ll get their numbers. I wonder how much voter ID can disrupt that where it needs to, the swing states.

It would be a huge disruption. The proof is how progressives scream like the stuck pigs they are whenever voter ID laws are seriously proposed.

I am not sure how active it is, but the The American Freedom Party does exist.

I have doubts about this explanation.

I remember watching the various FR threads on election day. As I recall, many, many FReepers reported that there seemed to be heavy, even record turnout at their polling locations. Indeed, this was my experience as well - when I went to my tiny rural polling place and asked the poll workers about the turnout, the numbers they relayed to me were several times what I have come to expect as "normal" out here.

So, my question is this: did a certain segment of voters simply stay home, or were their votes somehow negated?
