As Ohio kicks off its Golden Week, where voters can both register to vote and put in their early votes all at once, Live From Main Street is launching a nationally broadcast investigation week and "virtual town hall" that will expose voter suppression tactics, feature voter protection organizing and connect citizens to voting experts.
In our first panel, Bob Fitrakis, author of How the GOP Stole Americas 2004 Election & Is Rigging 2008, Donita Judge, a member of Advancement Project's Power and Democracy team and their lead attorney covering Ohio, and Stephen Hightower of the League of Young Voters discuss voter suppression and protection in Ohio and other battleground states.
that will not prevent them from hacking or playing with the numbers but it is a way to actually get less hassle to get in the boths.
This country is how old? And we still have no fair and nationally recognized way to insure a fair election?
This is crazy!

If you live in a overwhelmingly democratic voting area and/or are black...even if you plan to vote for Obama
My suggestion is that you wear a McCain Palin Tee and next time you register to vote register as a republican. That will insure that your area will get more machines and back up writen ballads and better functioning machines, Less delays. It's odd that it is the poorer & democratic areas these problems arise. Once you get in the both .. Vote for whoever you want. The GOP has no shame

Oddly enough this was done by Republicans. And they did it to folks who were also deployed or at college and were UNABLE TO RESPOND.
350,000 (mainly) democratic voters STRIPPED of their right to vote. Nice.

INVESTIGATE BEFORE VOTING: This so called OBAMA'S truth squad is starting to sound like these radical muslims, where no one is allowed to express their own thoughts, opinions.
Exceptional videos:
LIBERAL SOCIALISM
Barack Obama Not the Guy
