This is messed up. Computers and records seized. I've seen this outfit was in the news a few days ago, but this is crazy. I wonder how political the decision is.

3. Indeed voter suppression -

in the voter reg. process, at least here in AZ, you provide a voter reg. form, the person fills it out - and everyday those forms are turned in to our city registrars who then take each form and verify the information..if there is going to be voter fraud, wait, but the city does the verification - and sends out a voter card..if there is a problem w/identity, then a notice of a problem is sent to the address on the form....

Indiana...mike pence...

from the article...the state of Indiana doesn't allow voter registration forms – even those the group conducting the voter registration drive worries may be inaccurate– to be discarded without being looked over by the state.



Me thinks this SOS is in big trouble...big time..FED STEP IN TIME..reminds me of the good 'ol days in the south (SNARK) - FEDS stepped in thanks to RFK..my my my

4. From the article...

Tokaji agreed that registering fake voters would not lead to voter fraud.

"So far as I know Micky Mouse hasn't showed up yet. The risk of this turning into actual voter fraud, is infinitesimally small," Tokaji said. "If the facts here are true, it sounds like this is a concerted effort to shut down a group that is trying to register actual live voters who will actually vote."

5. The real scam is actually the exact opposite.

Republicans got caught doing this in Nevada a couple of elections ago: You set up a table to "register" voters, have them fill out the form- but anyone who says he or she is a Democrat or who by profiling is likely a Democrat, they throw the form in the trash. So the person walks away thinking he or she is registered to vote but surprise! come election day they can't vote.
