    Yeah. It's a new law that was put into action this year. I'm surprised many people don't know about it. Honestly, I think it'll be a problem for uninformed Democratic voters who come on Wednesday and can no longer vote for the party of their choice. It probably should be repealed, but I guess we will have to deal with it for this year.

    In 2007, the General Assembly passed a law making it a Class 1 misdemeanor to knowingly communicate false information to registered voters about the date, time and place of the election or voters' precincts, polling places or voter registration statuses in order to impede their voting. The measure is one of the few such deceptive voting practice laws in the country, according to the watchdog group Common Cause.

    Each Republican will be voting Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, just like they do every election.

    I believe you have that exactly backwards. I am reminding all my democrat friends to get out and vote this coming Wednesday.

    When you vote for democrats/progressives you’re voting for CHANGE.

    In his speech on 8/31/10 in Osawatomie, Kansas progressive T. Roosevelt’s version of CHANGE included national health care, social security and championing of unions (the vanguard of all welfare state advocates). TR didn’t care that his CHANGE violated the Constitution: “This, I know, implies a policy of a far more active governmental interference with social and economic conditions in this country than we have yet had, but I think we have got to face the fact that such an increase in governmental control is now necessary.”

    FDR articulated his version of CHANGE in his speech to Congress on 1/11/44: He said that we need a “Second Bill of Rights” which included the right: to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation; of every family to a decent home; to be free from economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment.

    LBJ’s CHANGE, The Great Society, became the largest redistribution of wealth in history.

    The fact that our semi-capitalist system has provided those “rights” through individual effort, religious/private organizations and minimal government welfare programs means little to most democrats. They discount the fact that millions of immigrants fled European welfare states where those “rights” were, “in theory,” guaranteed. But that’s the problem with democrats: they live “in theory.” They routinely subordinate facts and history to their dogma. They are determined to remake America into heaven on earth.

    It’s only because of the Internet, talk radio and Fox News -- non-existent a generation ago! -- that most Americans are aware of what the democrats mean by CHANGE:

    -2/4/10 Gallup poll: 61% of liberals have a positive view of socialism.

    -6/2/11 Gallup poll: 71% of democrats favor re-distributing wealth.

    -9/6-9/2012 http://www.gallup.com/poll/157481/majori%E2%80%A6 a poll on those who believe government should have more control over our lives: Republicans 15%; Independents, 29%; Democrats 67%.

    -Now they have national health care, the foundation of all welfare and socialist states.
