Dead on. This is about getting the buses loaded and driving around town until the polls close, voting provisional ballots at each polling place.

As a new Ohio resident who can't believe the judge's ruling in our case, HOW EXACTLY IS IT "DISENFRANCHISING" SOMEONE WHO GOES TO THE WRONG LOCATION TO VOTE?

I'm a bit sick of this stuff. We have months and months to determine and locate our polling places. Don't the rules mean ANYTHING?

OK, don't answer that, I know it already.

I've got family in Utah, Texas, Kansas and South Carolina, all safe Bush states and California, a safe Kerry state. Based on this ruling, they should all be entitled to cast their votes in Michigan, right?

After all, "No state shall deny any person equal protection of the law."

"Precisely! How long will decent, honest Americans sit back while self-serving activist judges gut our constitutional rights?" This is quickly becoming a legitimate case for anarchy."

But what should be done? I thought that there were LAWS on the books for this sort of stuff! Or do activist judges WRITE laws now?

Fricking Judges!

If you're not smart to know IF you're registered to vote OR if you don't know where to vote...

...then you shouldn't be voting!

"But what should be done?"

I've mulled that questioned around many times. Because so many of the federal judges are liberal activists, the legal system is no longer a recourse. This would be like an honorable German citizen attempting to legally challenge Hitler. These judges are bought and paid for. To bring these injustices to a head will require much sacrifice. I honestly believe it's getting down to rebelling against them with the understanding that we may have to pay the price so many before us have paid.

This is the terrorist attack we've been warned about.

Our own home grown Al Demaqueda network trying to affect the 2004 elections.

No need for bombs. We have the devils minions doing the dirty work. Pray for Bush and America.

In a separate issue, Lawson rejected challenges to rules concerning ID requirement for first-time voters who registered by mail.

Interesting that this point isn't defined: Did he require identification, or deny identification?

The panel on Special Report tonight believed that lawsuits will be filed left and right on Nov. 2nd. It will launch our political process into chaos and make us look even more stupid. This entire early voting crap was a bad idea to begin with, and the Fair Voting Act, or whatever it was called, is a joke and basically pisses on our history and Constitution.

I agree that some of my fellow Michiganders are dump as petoskey stones. But this is happening around the country. The entire system is so fubared, it isn't funny anymore.

This is somewhat off the subject, but seems as though the first time I went to register to vote, over 35 years ago, you had to demonstrate the ability to read.

This crap in Ohio & Michigan is a "disaster waiting to happen". I can already imagine a senario of someone voting with a provisional ballot in about 7 different precincts & then when he is challanged in 1 of them, he yells & screams that he is being disenfranchised.

I actually did ask our representative at the phonebank tonight about that. She told me that here in MIchigan we have access to the registration list by a simple phone call. She didn't seem to be worried about the provisional ballot as it gives them time to sort them out. Which ones are legal and not.

Oh gees. The courts getting involved in elections is dangerous. We need to change the election system seriously. The courts getting involved is a very dangerous precendent.
