This is why I get so frustrated with the Republicans. They've controlled the presidency and the Congress for four years now... the Sec. of State and Governor in Ohio are Republicans... Ashcroft is at the Justice Department. So why haven't they taken steps to make sure our elections are fair and accurate? Did they learn nothing from '00.
Aggravating.
Folks, don't for one minute don't think Ashcroft and Justice are not and have not been on voter fraud, probably for many months! Ashcroft is one smart guy,believe you me!!
I'd love to believe that, but what makes you think so?
They DISGUST me.
If it's not close, they can't cheat.
BUMP!
Please Pass Emergency Anti-Vote Fraud Measure Immediately!
Vote fraud threatens the very core of our republic, and it directly threatens our sovereignty
Please send the following message to your Congressmen and Senators:
Please pass, on an expedited basis, emergency legislation to require voters to show ID at all polling places on Election Day.
Vote fraud threatens the very core of our republic, and it directly threatens our sovereignty. There is a significant amount of evidence emerging that evinces a wide-spread plot to engage in massive voter fraud. Thus, Congress must take immediate action to counter this potential menace.
Congress has the express power to dictate the time, place, and manner in which federal elections are held. The congressional power to make or alter time, place, or manner of federal elections extends to the regulation of voter registration. Federal regulation of the electoral processes, including the regulation of federal voter registration, is also consistent with the Tenth Amendment and permissible; although states do have broad discretion to enact and implement registration procedures, states may not transgress the Constitution. It follows that state voter registration and Election Day statutes that are inconsistent with federal voter registration and Election Day mandates are preempted.
As per the Federal Court in Byrd v. Brice, the government may require a voter to furnish proof of identity at the polling place on Election Day. Such a measure would go a long way in protecting citizens federal voting rights from fraudulent practices.
Please set to work immediately on enacting emergency legislation to require a valid ID at the polling places on Election Day.
