El Paso County, Colorado employee registering only Romney voters:
Note: I don't like how this woman approached the situation but this is 100% illegal.
I think this young lady was ignorant that what she was being manipulated into doing is illegal.
The most you can do is choose where to register voters, such as choosing to only register voters in a poor area of town or a rich area of town. I'm not sure where this Safeway is but most of them are in the more affluent areas of town. It is possible (my speculation) she was told to go to the more affluent areas of town and was instructed to only register Romney voters.
I'm glad this woman caught this young lady but I do wish she wasn't so rude about it. The woman could have used the opportunity to give a civics lesson.
