About $6 million of the money that went to California was designated for voter education programs through 2006 for communities with historically low voter participation...community organizations....lamented the missed opportunity to mobilize peopleWhy the h*ll are my fed tax dollars going to get out the vote efforts?.
ACORN, which organizes low- and moderate-income families, [to get out the vote] slashed the number of precincts it will target in Contra Costa County from 50 to about 25 or 30.
More importantly, why is ANY partisan group getting fed funds to get out the vote?
If you don't vote, the repsonsibility is YOURS and I don't want my tax dollars going to get you off your butt.
As I was thinking about this thread, I thought of the House. They have simply walked away from their responsibility to balance the budget. How hard is it to say "No we won't fund partisan activities that will be used to defeat us during the next election"? Dolts!
