Its time for all states to pass a law requiring Valid state picture ID or Valid State pic drivers license...

Yes, hopefully President Bush will put a priority on election reform in his next term.

I'm amazed that there are actually election poll workers with brains and integrity in Ecorse/Detroit!

I think that you have proven that the normal Dem in society does not want to win by cheating. We all want fair and square.

"When the night was over and the votes tallied (Bush 32, Kerry 689), the Election Inspector had become very cordial towards me and SHE approached me to hug me good-bye.

The course of the day turned into an obvious display that the Democrat challenger was there in order to drum up votes, even if voters were not registered. I was there to ensure the integrity of the process. Which side do you believe is right? "

Both you and the people running the polling place were right, obviously. They sent people to their proper precincts if they came to the wrong one. You observed the polling place.

The Dem watcher was wrong, of course. But here's the real story: You were in a Democrat precinct, and I'm sure the people working the polls were also Democrats. Yet, they followed the rules and did their best to facilitate voting for those who came to the wrong precinct.

Sounds like our system in action to me.

BIOMETRIC VOTER ID CARDS.

This scenario is exactly why provisional ballots are widely encouraged by Dems.

Thank you for your service to our country.

One of the most conservative people I know happens to be black. I won't repeat exactly what he says about blacks that just automatically vote Democrat. He calls them "house n.....er's for the Democrats". Who step and fetch to the Democratic Party.

It sure looks like a lot more blacks voted for Bush. That's great!

Thank you for your work. You were a wonderful ambassador for the Republican Party.

I had a really good experience in my polling place here in Florida, too. The supervisor (a black man supervising four older ladies who were all Dems) checked everything very carefully, took no chances, and made every effort to enable people to vote - but without violating the law. I was really impressed. And we all got along beautifully and mutually congratulated each other at the end of the day.

Come to think of it, this is the best way I can think of to 'institutionalize' voter fraud. They finally did it!

First, let me say thank you for your efforts. When decisions, elections, voting etc. is whittled down to the local level, I believe that just about everyone wants one thing, fairness. That goes for you and the little lady that hugged you.

Now, if I may, this is how I think the Democrat media would portray the event:

Black Voters Disenfranchised AGAIN!!
Republican Poll Challenger Intimidates Poll Workers - Voters Turned away in Mass
