The voter rolls in 1789 were very carefully checked. Why would you want to remove those early patriots from the rolls now? Would you care to remove Edgar Allan Poe from the rolls after all he has done for this city? I suggest a compromise. Rather than remove your hallowed dead from the voter rolls, just make sure they only vote in those few precincts in which they actually lived pre-dirt nap. And please, show some restraint, the dead are indeed absent, but they should have no more than O say, 4 or 5 absentee ballots.
Also BTW, I notice the Baltimore Murder Rate has slipped below that of Chicago. What's going on? Try harder. Maybe more guns? Shooting lessons for "inner city ute?" To get more Baltimoreans in the box, Dude, you gotta think outside the box.
I know plenty of people from there and they all say that their old neighborhood and the city have gone to hell. Part of the reason the murder rate is now lower in Chicago is the Obama-Emanuel thugs have replaced the slimy but not as bad Daley crooks. The reason the crime rate is not higher in Baltimore is simply they have run out of targets. There are fewer honest, middle-class working people left in Baltimore. With the exception of a few medical students who have been murdered, in Baltimore it is now mostly just thugs murdering other thugs.
I like your sense of humor. Did you grow up in Baltimore and leave?
