Victory for voting rights in Ohio

Friday, October 17th, 2008

Republicans in Ohio, trying to  make sure that 200,000 Ohio voters would be unable to cast their vote in this election, got defeated today but the US Supreme Court who overturned the appeals court ruling that the Ohio Secretary of State would be required to set up a process by today to deal with possible voter registration issues.

The problem here was that Republicans did not want you to be able to vote if your voter registration has you as “John Smith” but your DMV records say “John T. Smith”. So at least for today, we have a victory for Democracy.

Waterboard Obama?

Really? Desperate Republicans have reached new lows in this election.

Pathetic. Republicans needs to win over the centrists in the election and not the far right. Actions such as these will only push more centrists to Obama.

You can go to the Sacramento Republican website and see some of the other tactics they use, including using the photoshopped Obama image of him holding a phone upsidedown. Again, pathetic.
