I received a notice yesterday from the State of New Jersey, Office of the Attorney General, Department of Law and Public Law and Safety, Division of Elections
The letter said:
Dear Voter:
A review of the statewiud voter registration system indicates that your date of birth is missing from your registration record.
Please be advised that a missing date of birth will not affect your right to vote. However, we need this missing information to assure that your records are correct and properly maintained.
Please provide your date of birth on the line below and mail this letter back in the self-addressed, stamped envelope provided.
(then its repeated in Spanish)
1st, I happen to personally know that my local registration record here is NOT missing my birth date.
2nd, why this mailing two weeks before the election? Is there any reasonable expectation by any reasonable person - if this question is so very important - that the matter will be clarified (everyone will mail in their birth dates) in the next two weeks? NO, NONE AT ALL. So, again, one must ask why the mailing just two weeks before an election.
3rd, will some people be confused, even with the inclusion of "will not affect your right to vote"? Of course there will be some who are confused and concerned, particularly after being told "However, we need this missing information to assure that your records are correct...".
4th, I am probably the only registered Republican with blocks of where I live and none of my neighbors got this notice.
5th, in talking to the State office that produced the mailing, they admitted that (1)they were just trying to update the State records from the county records and they just wanted to be sure they had the right birthdate information (so maybe its not "missing" afterall, and (2) not everyone in the state got the mailing but, she tried to assure me that eventually everyone will.
But, I'm not everyone. Now is not eventually. Now is two weeks before an election and I am a lone Republican in a sea of Democrats, and I get the notice.
Call me suspicious. And, that's exactlty what I told them I was - suspicious.
The libs will DO ANYTHING to stuff the ballot box...they have been since Tammany Hall.
They are out to get you.
RUN.....run far away.
But don't forget to vote first! LOL
All the more reason to leave NJ before the next census.
Republicans in solidly Dim states should leave and deprive them of congressmen and delegates.
That, or under-report on the census. Say 1 person lives in your house.
Your headline is misleading, making it read as if Republican's are supressing votes instead of votes of Republican's being suppressed.
Investigate....
Write your own scary letters back to the agencies and parties responsible...
Ask ALL... the right/hard questions about the origins of said letter.
Get a good lawyer and kick a$$...
You must not vote. They are watching you!
This is what we can expect. When it happens we must fight it immediately. We see TV spots daily on the Kean race. ALL are attack ads on Kean because there IS NOTHING positive to say about bagman bobbie menendez. All they can think to say is he's not a Republican. Of course I am very grateful of that.
'Don' Corzine wants to talk to you.........LOL
After the election, you can just ignore the suit or pass it off to professional political operatives if they see it as advantageous.
Stir up a fuss. Get a friendly reporter and go down there and make them give you a copy of your registration with the supposed missing data. Have this published on page one of the local paper. Then pop some popcorn and watch to see what happens.
get ACLU on it
The New York Post endorsed Kean yesterday.
Brilliant! Every conservative in every single liberal state should under-report on the census. There would obviously be a dramatic drop in population but we could explain that by saying Planned Parenthood must have had a successful abortion drive.
If it does not affect your right to vote then why did they simply not wait until you showed up to vote to have you complete the necessary form?
Here's the problem: demonrats wouldn't care if there were a problem, they'd just raise heck. They don't need no stinking pattern. That's the Republican's achilles heel I think. We are rational in a world full of looney tunes.
I say take this "To the STREETS!"
