Ohio newspaper publishes street addresses of some GOP vote challengers

[Newsjock]

From the Lancaster Eagle-Gazette, which by all accounts is a real paper. Just to be on the safe side of running afoul of DU rules, I've redacted the street addresses below. My guess is, from reading the detailed infobox they give with this story, this is one newspaper that's pissed off.

GOP challenges registrations

By CARL BURNETT JR.
The Eagle-Gazette Staff

What: A public hearing for residents who receive a notice from the Fairfield County Board of Elections
When: 8 a.m. to noon Wednesday
Where: Liberty Center, 951 Liberty Drive, Lancaster
Why: You must attend to be eligible to vote in the Nov. 2 general election. Bring proof of residency, such as a driver's license or utility bill.

LANCASTER -- The Republican Party filed challenges to approximately 500 new voter registrations at the Fairfield County Board of Elections on Friday.

"I've worked here since 1985 and this is the first time I've seen anything like this," said Alice Nicolia, director of the Fairfield County Board of Elections.

... James Linehan, lead counsel for the Kerry/Edwards campaign in Fairfield County, said the challenges are a blatant attempt by Republicans to suppress voter turnout.

"It's pretty clear that we are working to get out the vote and get more people to vote, and the Republicans are the ones trying to suppress voter turnout," Linehan said. "There will be no Democratic effort to suppress voter turnout."

... Three Fairfield County Republicans filed the challenges in this county: Steve Elsea, redacted, Canal Winchester; Matthew Archibald, redacted; and Brian Saver, redacted, Pickerington.

All the challenges contained the same phrase. The 500 new registrations were challenged "as unqualified on the ground that the person is not a resident of the precinct where the person offers to vote."

3. I called my mother in Ohio today

Told her I'd be bugging the shit out of her for the next ten days.
Keeping her posted on all the shit pepugs are trying to pull.

She's like, wow it took a real asshole in the whitehouse to get my son to make regular calls!
Thats my mom.

I told her to tell everyone who even looks at her sideways that she's a big time republithug and they better watch their step.
She says she's gonna kick the living shit out of any bitch that even gets in her face!

I was so proud I started to ball my eyes out!

Thanks Bush, bringing families together all across amerikkka.
