I heard Michael Medved state the other day that in at least 5 "battleground" states (Ohio, Oregon, can't remember the others)Republicans are registering more than the democrats. I do believe that the Republicans will be the ones more likely to vote. The dumbocrats will either forget it is election day, or be to drunk or stoned to go to the polls.
can anyone point me to raw county data for Ohio for the 2000 election. I'm especially interested in registration vs actual turnout by county.

If they really are registered. Republican-staffed regs
drives can probably be trusted, but if anyone "registered"
lately via a third party, as anything other than a Dem,
they need to assume their paperwork will be lost, altered
or used to create fake voters.

Subject: Will you be turned away on November 2nd?
This email is unfortunately not a hoax or urban legend.
Share it with any people whose votes you care about.
This is particularly important in "battleground" states.
1. Register in person
Unless you registered to vote in person at an official
location, you may not be registered, or you may have a
defective registration. You need to verify your voter
registration status in person with your local elections
office.
2. Verify it
There is some chance that even if you were properly
registered, and even voted in the primaries, someone
has since tampered with (filed a change on) your
registration, either to enable someone else to vote
as you, or just to deny your vote. Verify your
registration. Do this as late as possible (still
with time to fix it)
3. Look for abuse
If you gave personal information to a door-to-door,
telephone or web "get-out-the-vote" operation, there
may be fictional voters signed up as members of your
family or as unrelated people living at your address.
When you verify, ask who else is registered at your
address, or with your same name.
4. Vote as early as possible
If your locale allows it, you need to consider voting
absentee, and as early as possible, to forestall the
ability of someone else to impersonate you and steal
your vote.
In Kansas, you can register up to 15 days before the
election, but vote as early as 20 days before. So
register NOW, and then you can complete steps 2/3/4
on October 13.
Although the legacy media is not eager to report it, the
2004 election promises to include significant levels of
vote fraud. Ineligible voters, multiple voters, voter
impersonation (vote theft) and registration interference
have all been reported.
3rd-party registration drives cannot be trusted with
something as important as your vote.
Innocent error is possible with any group, but the more
radical organizations are actually invalidating or simply
not filing the registrations of voters not sympathetic
to their candidate. They are also creating additional
fictional registrations based on real addresses, names
and other personal info.
You need to take steps to ensure that your vote counts,
and that information about you is not being used to
enable fraudulent votes.
I was registering at the fair.. and we ran out of registration forms. I would say 99.7% said they were going to vote for BUSH. Of all nationalities, of all ages.... but majority were college kids.
The numbers I've heard here in OH do not support that more GOP are registering than Dems. We have no idea how many Dems are frauds, and certainly registering doesn't = "voting." But the consensus is that the Dems beat us anywhere from 65,000 to 100,000. Again, that won't be enough to beat Bush.
Re#4 I heard that too. Save for two states (which were close in numbers), the GOP has done a great job. With the 72 hour STOMP program, I feel even better....
