Local station AM1500 KSTP had this on their morning show, they had just gotten wind of it and didn't have a lot of details.

Then Rush was all over it and finally, during the early afternoon drive time, Joe Soucheray spent nearly his entire show on it.

Had the MN Sec of State, Mary Kiffmeyer, on and she said that her office had been flooded with calls and emails, (Thank you MN FReepers), and that they were very aware of the problem. But, since no fraud had yet been committed they couldn't DO anything but watch closely.

Then the MN US Attorney Tom Heffelfinger called in. He said that his office had been made aware of it by both the Sec of State's office and by calls, emails. He said that he couldn't comment on an ongoing investigation, nor could he verify that there was an investigation, but that they would be monitoring the situation and invited Joe to call him back in November after the election and said he would be "Happy to take his call" then.

Then a MN State Rep called in, (sorry - didn't catch her name), and said that there was a bill before the state legislature last year that would have limited the vouching for new voters program to ten per voucher, but it was shot down and never even got to a vote. Also a bill to require picture ID for people registering the first time on election day and that also never made it to a vote. She encouraged people to call their Reps. and demand that they do something about this.

Joe also was hilarious, making fun of the DSA and thier communist leanings, (had a 150 year candle ceremony for the communist party's birthday), called GWB more dangerous to the world than Saddam Hussein...he let them have it. The hilarious part where he lost it was the fact that these socialists would actually have evil capitalist credit cards with which to donate to this project!

He then publicly called on Wellstone to denounce this and declare that he doesn't support any of their beliefs including the GWB/Saddam analogy, and to let these "Young people" know that if they did follow through they would be committing fraud, a felony. Said he had a responsibility to denounce this and let them know what it was they were being encouraged to do. He also acknowledged that it would probably be a cold day you know where before Wellstone actually stepped up and did this.

I'm sure the evening show, (Jason Lewis - Minnesota's Mr. Right), is all over this right now. I get horrible reception in my house however, so if anybody else is listening I'd love to hear what he had to say on this.
