Good thing that the recount is fair. When it looked like the absentee ballots might help Coleman, they were rejected. Now that Franken thinks they may help him, they want to count them.

Somehow, some way, the GOP "leadership" needs to tear themselves away from the cocktail parties and put election reform in place. The place to start are the officials that control the election process, usually Sec. of State for each state. It must be made fair and legal. Outside groups like ACORN must be banned, and prosecuted if necessary. Motor voter and early voting were pushed as ways to allow more people to vote, but are ripe with fraud and should be eliminated. Otherwise, we're a banana republic. Heck, we already a foreign born el jeffe 0bama!

I read that MoveOn.org had put in place a few years ago a program called ‘the Secretaries of State’ program. It was created to work on getting as many Dem Sec.’s of State as possible in place before this presidential election. It looks like they were pretty successful.

I've posted this rant before, but here we go:

The place to start is to wipe all voter rolls, every state, county, city, whatever, where ever, period. Every citizen that wishes to vote needs to register EVERY TIME for EVERY election. Have a two month period for registering that ends a month away from the election.

When registering, every citizen needs to provide a photo ID, prove residency, and be rewarded with a voter card with a unique code. Upon reaching the voting booth, we repeat the ID dance, surrender the voter card which is shredded, and vote. Then each voter should recieve a receipt with a code that can verify that person's vote actually recorded correctly.

There should be a 24 hour period where a person votes at his or her designated precinct ONLY. There should be no absentee, early, or any other convenience voting. If a person cares enough to vote, they'll find the time. No assistance voting, and I'm serios, even nursing homes, hospitals, etc. Sucks, but it's the only way.

Military are the only exceptions. Their votes should be allowed even after the 24 hour period, or before, to do away with this disallowing nonsense. THEY count more than anyone else.

I'd also be in large favor of a test before allowing to register. In English. We already ARE a banana republic. This election was stolen. We've had a bloodless (so far)coup and it's still continuing with the fraud vote counting.
