    Several of the battles over registration lists have taken on a partisan tinge, including in Montana, where a state GOP official challenged nearly 6,000 voters over apparent discrepancies in their addresses. He dropped his challenge after Democrats went to court, but not before one county sent letters to hundreds of voters informing them that their registrations were in jeopardy. Now the county is trying to let them know they are eligible to cast ballots after all.

    The Republicans filed the case "with the express intent to disenfranchise voters," a federal judge said.

    What all of the scandal theorists just don't seem to get (because they don't want to) is the people doing the multiple registrations were the bottom rung people trying to make as much money as they could. They were telling people yeah just fill this out because they wanted numbers. The head people at ACORN were the very ones who turned in the discrepancies to election boards.

    Wow, they don't appear to be very bright if they are turning in the very registrations they are being accused of trying to fraudulently get.

    Now, can you share why the Republicans consistently try to prevent people from voting (i.e., Florida voters in 2000) oh yeah thats right it's different right? Hypocrites.

    Just to clear a few thing up for you so you won't be looking like an idiot. ACORN is not politically affiliated and registers people in any party they wish to register in. ACORN pointed out the petitions that are in question to actually prevent these people from registering. None of these people have been registered, much less voted. Every registration is verified by ACORN and by the registrar of the state. The only "scandal" is the the partisan pressure that was put on the justice department to start this phony "investigation." They didn't need to seize the records, they had already been supplied by ACORN.

    ACORN is legally obligated to turn in every registration they receive even if they suspect it of being bogus. The local election board has the responsibility of making certain they are valid registrations.

    In my own state, Minnesota, the only problem uncovered with ACORN is that one box of registrations was not sent to the Election Board in the 10 day period stipulated in the law. It was sent in time for the registrations to be valid for the upcoming elections though.

    In California the LA Times said in today's newspaper that the GOP in California is being investigated for voter registration fraud. It's also happened in Michigan, Montana and Maine so for.

    The point is, it's not just Democrats.

    This could be GOP jiggery-pokery as easily as it could be Democrat flim-flammery. The Bushies got caught out first in 2000, they're just as suspect. It could be either one trying to make a mockery of democracy.

    This has already been to the Ohio supreme court. It was found to be Republican voter suppression not voter fraud.

    You can register as many times as you want, you can only vote once.

    Don't worry they did not register Mickey Mouse although I suspect the big rat is a Republican.

    The only fraud was Acorn being billed for the false registrations.

    You can register 75 times but you can't vote 75 times on election day. It would take too much time.

    I saw that in the Modesto Bee, there were more than one.

    Yep we've heard about all the registering the Obama people have done.

    It doesn't matter who registers, though those who signed wrongly will be prosecuted, it matters who votes! And Republicans are the ones who have been supressing, purging, and caging our votes. I say our votes because they belong to every one of us. How do you feel about the citizens of our country feeling that they have to fight to protect their vote, that it's not automatic? Well that's how many of us feel, and it's because of Republican voting fraud and shananagans, not the opposite as you attempt to assert.
