Good News! - Just on Fox news - Decision by 2 Federal judges to keep Republican election officials out of polling places where dubius ballots have been showing up is overturned. Democrats are claiming that this will intimidate voters. To you voters who are afraid to vote because the legal system is in place to keep cheating out, stay home. |

SPLORFFFF!!!!
They are freakin' DELUSIONAL!
Good Lord, they have had every POSSIBLE advantage for four years, now.
With the exception of a two or three month break after 9-11, they have had our corrupt leftist media bashing and trashing on the incumbent every %$#$$# day, and since the Iowa caucuses, actively campaigning for Kerry.
It's a miracle that this President is even IN THE RUNNING after the trumped up, falsely-premised drubbing he's taken!
There are many counties in some of these swing states for which there are more registered voters than voting-age adults exist.
Michael Moore has made this big deal about fielding hundreds of video teams at polling places.
ACORN and ACT have both been found to have registered thousands of fraudulent and suspect voters in swing states.
Florida has at least 80,000 people who are registered to vote in both Florida (their winter home) and their home states.
And the DNC wants us to think that checking for ID's and residency is somehow threatening????
There is going to be a real run on Xanax, tomorrow, as the KookAde wears off. _________________ ~ Echo Juliet ~

Ofcourse it will intimidate voters to have poll watchers in the polling places. Especially the dead ones. And it is proof the Republicans are trying to supress democratic vote, because it is a known fact that dead people vote democratic by a 10 to 1 margin. _________________ <insert pithy signature here> |

I saw at another site that poll watchers would be allowed in Ohio. That makes sense as there have been poll watchers in Ohio for 51 years.There is another story that Tom Daschel is trying to have poll watchers removed in South Dakota. |

I don't have a link but you can turn on FOX news and wait for news updates each half hour. FOX just reported the story a few minutes ago. Challengers will be allowed in Ohio and the dems are appealing to the US Supreme court. |

Court OKs Voter Challengers at Ohio Polls
49 minutes ago
By TERRY KINNEY, Associated Press Writer
CINCINNATI - A federal appeals court has cleared the way for challengers to be present at polling places in Ohio, ruling early Tuesday that their presence on Election Day is allowed under state law.
A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals (news - web sites) ruled 2-1 to grant emergency stays of two federal judges' orders Monday that barred political parties' voter challengers in Ohio. The judges also consolidated the two cases.
The court said that while there is a strong public interest in letting registered voters vote freely, there is also "strong public interest in permitting legitimate statutory processes to operate to preclude voting by those who are not entitled to vote."
The judges also said that smooth and effective administration of the voting laws means that the rules can't be changed in the hours immediately preceding the election.
