Make people actually get out and register themselves. Problem solved.

One party can afford a much bigger cost this year because they failed to keep promises they made. And I'm sure that will be the first of many unkept promises should that parties' candidate get elected.

ronjo58 you're in denial..... too funny. Go back and read my post #200 and harlie's post #241. That's voter registration fraud....Republican style!

The firm hired by the California Republican Party -- a small company called Young Political Majors, or YPM, which operates in several states -- has been accused of using the tactic across the country.
Election officials and lawmakers have launched investigations into the activities of YPM workers in Florida and Massachusetts. In Arizona, the firm was recently a defendant in a civil rights lawsuit. Prosecutors in Los Angeles and Ventura counties say they are investigating complaints about the company.
The firm, which a Republican Party spokesman said is paid $7 to $12 for each registration it secures, has denied any wrongdoing and says it has never been charged with a crime.

personally I think more should be done to find out where all these mega bucks actually came from. Like I keep saying, follow the money!!

You'll have to get your self a call center and get thousands of people to track down all those donations.

naaaa, all Obama has to do is publicize the donors list....which he refuses to do.

Actually I don't blame Obama for keeping it a secret. If I had accepted donations from Daffy Duck and company, Id be too embarrassed to tell anyone, also.

If you go donate to Obama through his website all the donations can be tracked to the owners of the credit cards where you'll find mine in there for several $25.00 payments to that account. Track down my phone number and ask me about my payments, I tell you I made them and you can repeat the process several millions of times and you can talk to each and every donor.

Even if true, it goes to the heart of requiring a legitimate photo and maybe even a fingerprint identification for voters

None of you have except one that posted something about a canadien company hired by the Republican party to register voters.

"Sorry kids, leftover Ramen again tonight, we had to donate to the messiah."

he GOP is slinging mud at ACORN when they themselves are involved in voter registration fraud!

and like a lot of the posters they ignore posts with facts contrary to what they believe.

he came from the planet Krypton!

wonder why this GOP voter registration fraud story has not been picked up by the mainstream media?

That is why I advocate Photo and fingerprint ID when it comes to being identified to vote.

I agree w/ photo and fingerprint ID. Those that argue that, have something to hide or are just too lazy to take the extra effort. Now days with identity theft so rampid, fingerprinting only makes sense. Just my opinion.

McCain Campaign Paid Republican Operative Accused of Voter Fraud

John McCain paid $175,000 of campaign money to a Republican operative accused of massive voter registration fraud in several states, it has emerged.
The documents show that a joint committee of the McCain-Palin campaign, the Republican National Committee and the California Republican Party, made the payment to Lincoln Strategy, of which Mr Sproul is the managing partner, for the purposes of "voter registration".
In October last year, the House Judiciary Committee wrote to the Attorney General requesting answers regarding a number of allegations against Mr Sproul's firm, then known as Sproul and Associates. It referred to evidence that ahead of the 2004 national elections, the firm trained staff only to register Republican voters and destroyed any other registration cards, citing affidavits from former staff members and investigations by television news programmes.

One former worker testified that "fooling people was key to the job" and that "canvassers were told to act as if they were non-partisan, to hide that they were working for the RNC, especially if approached by the media," according to the committee's letter. It also cited reports from public libraries across the country that the firm had asked to set up voter registration tables claiming it was working on behalf of the non-partisan group America Votes, though in fact no such link existed.

Such activities "clearly suppress votes and violate the law", wrote John Conyers, the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. The letter suggested that the Judiciary Department had failed to take sufficient action on the allegations because of the politicisation of the department under the then-attorney general, John Ashcroft.

That year, Mr Sproul's firm was paid $8,359,161 by the Republican Party, according to a 2005 article in the Baltimore Chronicle, which claimed that this was far more than what had been reported to the Federal Elections Commission.

Why dont we just use our DNA? Maybe we could give a retinal scan too!

**Update- 12/21/07**

I find that I was misinformed about Kathleen Dreamer's party affiliation. She is a Republican as can be found in this AP story. This is the first story I have seen that mentions the party affiliation specifically of Dreamer. An earlier story I saw misidentified both as Democrats.
