OMG! State of MO requires new voters to register 1 calendar year prior to the election!
No, it's not really a requirement in the State of Missouri, but it could be a new requirement in your state.

What are the current requirements to register and vote in your state? How many kinds of ID are you required to have to vote or register in your state? Do you have the 3 types of identification required to register and vote in your state?

Don't wait for Rachel Maddow or Ed Schultz to tell you about these things - these items may get by them in their daily crush of info!

Educate yourself about your state's voter and registration requirements! They may have changed since the last election, you know.

I would never put it past the repukes to capitalize on Pres O running unchallenged in the primaries by delaying info about new voter and registration rules until it's too late to register for the Elections next year. Let's not get caught with our pants down!

Educate yourself about the voter and voter registration requirements, and check periodically to see if they've been changed again.

2. I was listening to a recent discussion w/ Katrina vanden Heuvel on Bob McChesney's show.....

....... She said that Republicans know that the changing demographics of this country do not favor them, and they've even admitted that. So their solution is to restrict voting.

3. In 2008, in PA, it was register 31 days before an election and no ID at the polls.
May have changed since I left.

4. K&R
The Republicans are obviously getting more and more desperate. They know the demographics are against them so they are going to try to take more and more power away from the people as quickly as they can.

They ultimately will lose the demographics battle, but they can cause a lot of pain and a lot of damage to the country in the meantime.

5. I had to log in to UNREC this!
Liar's subject line. And not even a link to do what you advise! Try doing a little work before you post.

What useless nonsense. Better advice is to check and determine if you are still registered at all.

6. The point is to do your own research, NOW!
Don't wait til after the primaries start. Educate yourself, don't wait til someone spoonfeeds you the info.

Are you telling me that your too stupid to do your own research? Because that's what I'm hearing!

It sounds very insular.

8. Unrec - false headline
Some of us come here to get informed. False information, even as a teaser, is not helpful.

13. Would you rethink the Thread Title. It's blatantly false and derails discussion.
Maybe instead of OMG! Put "Imagine!"
