[...] Posted on 28 October 2008 by kos Great news in Georgia: [...]

This is going on in all or most of the toss-up states where republican state attorney generals are systematically trying to remove mainly democrats and especially minority voters – I am very happy there is at least one story here. It would be great if we could see an investigative report on this actual voter suppression – verses the continued hysteria over ACORN where none of the bad registrations would even lead to one fraudulent vote yet Lou Dobbs shrieks daily about ACORN, ACORN…. the sky is falling!

This is wonderful! We finally have a Democrat that is prepared to fight back. Obama is a new kind of Democrat and the republicans just don't know how to respond but with the same tactics that don't appear to be working. Voter suppresion–not this time! This is the reason for voting early. This gives Obama a chance to send the lawyers out to fight for the average American before election night. When this happens on election night, we get recounts and delays. Refuse to be intimidated! Obama/Biden 08

We are currently in the process of making Georgia a blue state and the GOP doesn't like it. Its good to know that the republicans can't steal georgia.

I tell ya, every battleground state is going to have these types of problems. Repulicans can't stand to LOOSE. They will cheat, lie, or steal to stay in office!

The state of Alaska needs serious reforming; they got some big time crooks up there.

GOP=Grand Ole Phoneys!

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

I'm stunned.

I thought voting was a right for legal citizens of this country. I wonder if I go to France they'll let me vote?

Regardless of who you are going to vote for…Isn't allowing questionable registrations to be valid sort of illegal?????

Well i'm glad the courts are working hard to protect our votes because the republican party sure isn't.And this is the party with the slogan country first , what a joke.Nov.4 we will show them how much we love this country when we take it back and that means every intelligent dem,rep.,ind. ect. We have all had enough!

VOTE EARLY
There are soo many Republican Operatives in authority positions pertaining to voter registration & Voting.
Its obvious they have been given their orders and are attempting to be good stolegers.

Just like special forces carrying out a mission, The Republican Election Fix is on again
But they wanna cry about how ACORN is undermining the fabric of Democracy. Hahahaa HA HA.. Ecertything that they complain about, they have done or are doing themselves.. Its their way of taking attention off their own misdeeds & lies .

Now if those responsible for voter suppression were prosecuted, then maybe some of these illegal activities would stop. This is getting out of control is turning America into a third rate country.

I'm from Atlanta and the talk is that Ga might turn blue. That has to worry the Rethugs.

"If it does turn out that these voters were not citizens, then their votes can be voided after the election. "

Right. Okay. Let me get this straight. Let's say that illegal immigrants make up the deciding vote, and it flips Georgia blue. Let's even pretend that it'll actually decide the election – in other words, let's envision that it will -matter-.

Are you -seriously- going to tell me that, even if they were handed 100% absolutely positively incontrovertible proof that the deciding number of votes was made by illegal immigrants with no right to vote, that you'd all say, well, okay, and accept their votes being tossed out?

How absolutely stupid do you think we are? Are you kidding? You've all shown your colors in blazing technicolor. A vote could be from a national socialist tranvestite Kenyan citizen, but if it was a vote for Obama, you'd scream (just as you all are in this thread) that it was a "dirty trick" and "voter suppression" to do anything about his vote.

Qwinn

Legitimate voters should not be disenfranchised and I'm glad the courts are on the side of the voters. America can do better than this. We can't keep having this problem every presidential election. This is supposed to be a modern civilization after all. We have the technology, why are we behaving like a 3rd world country?

These formerly flagged voters need to get out and vote for Obama and stick it to the GOP for trying to take away the most important right of being an American citizen.

Hey America!

News flash…

Be very careful what you say & do & how you say & do it, because "it" will come back and bite you sooner or later!

There are a lot of people in this world, not just politicians, that haven't figured that out yet even after a millenia of trying!!!

I'd have to say Republicans are leading that group into oblivion though, which is a good thing! Because right now, left & right, all you see & hear is folks tired of the B.S. that they're seeing happening, whistle blowing and pulling the covers off a pathetic orgy of Corporate & Government greed & abuse of power added to the already murderous tendencies we seem to have!!!

I don't know about you! But, I kinda see the writing on the wall and it ain't pretty!

For all you bigoted, arrogant, stubborn, un-educated, too opinionated fools out there, be careful what you spit on your blogs! Big brotha is listening in ways you'd only see in a Batman movie!

"O" in "08″

Peace

p.s. …here's a man and a movement pontificating transperency & accountability in it all and all a lot of Americans wanna do is lynch da brotha, ya'll ridiculous!!! I can't believe some of the blogs people type!!! Whew! This country is in trouble!!!

I lived and voted in Ga. back in 2004, I felt hopeless back then being one of the few in that state to vote for Kerry and even now living in South Carolina is kind of the same way but at least I got the chance to vote.

I love how Republicans complain about voter registration fraud, like Mickey Mouse is going to vote on Nov. 4th, when if you really think about it, if the economy wasn't so bad those ACORN people wouldn't have had to make up new voters to keep their crappy jobs in the first place. This on the other hand, when American citizens aren't allowed to vote because of a systematic attack to keep a dying political group (republicans) in office is just awful and makes me sick thinking about it.

Just remember Obama/Biden folks, get out and vote even if you don't think your vote will count in your state, you never know and at least you will be showing your support instead of letting more of this crap happen for 4 more years.

Electoral Safeguards?
We need safeguards to prevent the Rove-infested GOP from depriving voters of their rights as in 2000 and 2004, singing
"Carry me back to old Segregation times!"
Do you really want to bet your civil rights on whether your state's records all match up? Not in my state!

I get a little nervous knowing that idiots like "m.c." get to be involved in the process of picking the next leader of the free World. Pray to God that idiots like "m.c." don't reproduce. God Bless Obama!

Wonderful……The world is waching us.

haha larry, the mafia didn't get jfk elected, it was really LBJ bringing in the southern vote that put him over the top but glad to see your in favor of keeping voters like this young college kid from voting just because they don't vote the way you want.

just wait

they will seek a preliminary injuction somewhere to stop all voting there

Oh, my….. you know she meant "sounds like Palin." Fumble fingers…. teachers should be in bed asleep at this time. The future of our children AND the country depends on our ability to teach these young people the RIGHT way to do things…. Honestly! The McCain Camp gives them all the wrong models…. Time for some TRUTH in Journalism. Thank you, CNN, for giving it a Shot unlike Lou Dobbs, Glen Beck, FoxNews, Rush Limbaugh, and their ilk!

Whoa…. this woman sIf you sounds like Palin…. the typical GOP. If you get caught, play a little SWITCHaroo!!! You know…. the Republican Two Step…. Side Step…. D.C. Shuffle! They have gotten away with it for 8 years…. Must stunning that it is NOT working this time around!

Poor Republicans: "You can fool all of the People some of the time. And some of the People all of the time. But you CANNOT fool ALL of the PEOPLE ALL of the TIME! Get used to it, Repubs, we are on to you this time around!

We, the People, are awake….. AND Voting! Obama, 2008!

What a disgrace. Anyone who seeks to overturn the will of the people is a disgrace to society. Shame on you Handel. Is it really worth it?

We send representatives to other countries to monitor their elections, maybe it's time we get disinterested parties to monitor our elections.

Good for them. Make sure Georgia's Republican mafia does not prevent the people from voting OBAMA/Biden

LET ANYBODY AND EVERBODY VOTE, no matter what crime they have committed, it couldn't possible be as bad as what our government of the last 8 years has done to America. This is bogus business when we can't get this even close to right.

Go out and Vote ! Go out and Vote !! Go out and Vote!!! Go out and Vote!!! Go out andVote!!!! Go out and Vote !!!! GO out and Vote!!!!! Go out and Vote!!!!!! GO out and Vote…vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote vote votew vote vote vote vote vote vote out the GOP…………lets you wake up to another 4years of MCBush senior ,smell the coffee.every great leap started with a dream,then an idea,then a commitment,then a resolute will to stick it thru and then the change we want.People florida is turning blue.help make it happen go out now and vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvote

they better hope all those people who were about to be denied the vote by that republican harpy were democrats cause they definitely are now ;o)

We're all Georgians today.

As a WASP Georgian, I am so pleased to see this. Not since Lester Maddox has Georgia be run by segregationist. The Georgia Republican Party began with the Julian Bond delegation being seated by the Democratic Convention instead of the segregation delegation. That delegation returned home to become Republicans. Interesting to note as well, that this article is titled "flagged" which is what the Republicans with the help of the Sons of Confederate Veterans did to former Governor Roy Barnes who removed the Confederate Flag from the state flag. Right does eventually win out. Now if only our religious folks would do something beside bowing their heads and closing their eyes.

What is the point of having all the laws that have safeguards in place for voter fraud when we don't enforce them ??? This is like when the Mafia got JFK elected in the 60's.

we need a new direction and we need a new plan. I LOVE the UNITED, UNITED States of America, not the divided, or the rich or the hating states of america. All people need o come together as one and make a reasonable decision.There is only one intelligent choice this election cycle and it does NOT start with blocking votes, stomping on the poor, calling tax cuts for non rich people SOCIALISM! It time to vote for our own interests and not what the wealthy want us to vote through there cable news networks and talk radio or Fixed news network (fox).
BLOCK THE VOTE..Republicans eat that!!!!

Inexperienced, black guy terrorist, socialist, chicago politician, tree hugger, even Antichrist this from the extreme religious right)
THAT ONE/ BIDEN 08-12 HILARY/THAT ONE 16-20

What a way to run an election.
If you poeple in charge as that stupid, then you should be in the cell next to Stevens before the election

This is the ONLY way McCain and his GOP thugs can win, voting shenanigans. Its time the GOP reign ends.

Unfortunate for McCain and the Republicans, that is.

McCain is looking more and more confused.

The Republicans have used every trick in the book. They will stop at nothing. I hope the whole bunch gets their just desserts come Nov. 4th!
I voted STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC!!

Unbelievable! But we've seen it for years–the Republicans trying to disenfranchise anyone they don't agree with (the poor, the non-white, the liberal, oh yeah…the intelligent, too). I feel that this election cycle will show the world that most Americans want the bums out. And will vote to do so.

Oh my GOd! Imagine if they didn't allow these people to vote!!!!!!
I am glad they had some sense and made the right decision.

can mickey mouse, abraham lincoln, barney the purple dinosaur, vote too!? they were registered, werent they?

Way to go Georgia! 50,000 more votes for Obama!!

Not this time! Enough!

The Pubs new strategy…. disenfranchise anyone who is "not one of them."

Hey, check it out! Maybe this is all a ploy to see where Americans stand on issues and then using that info to group us into catagories!

Consider for a moment that every word you say, type or text in any form of communication is visible and recordable by the government!!!

You don't have to wait for Obama for that one, after recent events of the telecoms and government you can trust that the government is at the point of "all knowing"!

My next point is more important!!!

For all you folks on these blogs that

Isn't it funny how the conservatives kept laughing at the DEMS but now it's our turn to laugh at them because 2 people on the same ticket are fighting each other. Palin you will not be prepared now or in 2012, you can't fix stupid!

NO PALIN! EVER!

One more victory for Democracy. The more people vote, the more we'll have the representative government our founders envisioned.

My fellow Georgians, remember this same Republican has plans to run for Governor! JUST SAY NOOOOOOOOOOOO!! She is about as far right-wing as Palin is and that is scary!!

Does anyone in the United States use common sense these days?

Change is already Happening!!! Obama/Biden all the way….

Oh my gosh! It's apparent that the only way the GOP has been winning elections is through cheating. To qoute my favorite candidate, "this is the final verdict on the Republican philosophy. " They have been exposed for the crooked scums they are!

It seems like it's a Texas primary style of voting to be happening in other states. Registering to vote by ACORN…

Vote early.. and .. vote again, and again.

Barack Obama has credibility and charisma, charm and common sense. He is the kind of person the USA needs at this time, a fine example the rest of the world can relate to: a capable leader with clear ideas for the future. Colin Powell was right!
By contrast, McCain and Palin fall far short of the standards a major democracy should be setting for the rest of the world. I am especially alarmed at the divisive tone of their campaign rallies. Hatemongering does not engender unity and hope, only fear and loathing. The only thing that could possibly save them is election fraud, voter suppression (which already looks to be happening in some places) and a few clever tricks by their equally sly friends in the White House (check out the war games being played out in Syria and Pakistan right now).
Hopefully a majority of the US electorate will come to their senses this time!

Good ridence to Bad Nonsense!

What did Karen Handel say??? She is pleased that the district court supported her process? So that would be why they ruled that these people be allowed to vote? (O.K…..so she's not the brightest star in the universe!)

This is a great day for Democracy!

VOTE – TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

First Ted Stevens is convicted, guaranteeing a Begich win, and now this ruling…if I weren't in recovery I would open a bottle of champagne right now.

Good! It's time for state contenuity for voting laws. As president, Obama will need to put this on his "to do" list. Repub Sec of state in Colorado stinks to high heaven. Disqualifying voters and running for election at the same time. Conflict of interest — do you think?

I hope Bob Barr takes about 7 percent of the vote, and Obama beats McWeasel in Georgia. All we need is for Metro ATL to go heavily OBAMA, and the southern portion to split and IT'S A DONE DEAL.

This isnt 2000! No way are we letting the GOP steal one again. We saw what happened last time that happened.

It is well past time for a national identification card to stop the questions of voting and doing business in America. This is not an issue of discrimination but of preserving and protecting American processes from fraud and abuse. A national ID to be shown whenever anyone conducts business will stop the confusion and restore integrity to our nation.

No more hanging chads. No more voter suppression.

Great Info!!!! Great verdict!!!! I hope this hits the radio and local GA news stations non-stop this week!!!!

Thank goodness reason and justice prevail – too bad for the Republicans who are desperately trying to subvert our democracy and the right of every person to vote. They will stoop to anything.

Let's not let the Republicans steal another election – get out and vote early if you can and volunteer to help others get to the polls. Report any voter abuse to the media, the Election Board and anyone who will listen. If the voting process is kept honest – we all know Obama will win…however keep working to get the vote out!

Well, when are we going to address what's going on in Wisconsin and Colorado??? In Wisconsin, an Attorney General and Republican state honorary co chairman of McCain's election campaign, is filing another lawsuit against the State Election Committee because he believes that people are voting illegally but this has not been substantiated. This seems a bit fishy seeing that he had GOP lawyers in his office recently and when asked if they asked him to file the lawsuit, he said "No, but they may have told some of my lawyers to." Isn't that the same thing as saying yes?!? Colorado's Secretary of State, Michael Coffman purged 30,000 voters illegally from voter rolls. Coffman's office believes that he hasn't done anything wrong and believes that it was "only" 14,000 voters that we purged. Does this make his wrong-doing any better??? Why is it that Republicans seem to be the only politicians behind this voter suppression in key battleground states?!? Luckily courts are allowing formerly purged voters in Georgia to vote. They were also told by their Republican Secretary of State that they weren't allowed to vote for various bogus reasons such as they weren't US citizens.

I am a georgia voter an I waited in line from 10:25am to 6pm to vote today. It was a very diverse group in the huge line. I'm black but the people who where around me were white, we never spoke about who we were voting for or anything political. One person I discovered worked with my father years ago, an older couple told me that their son an I attend the same church, and the woman next to me was a patient at my practice recently. My point is regardless of who we voted for, we all stood as proud Americans. Regardless of race, gender,age, or party we appreciated each others company and love for this great country.
Obama 08

I guess tomorrows conservative radio headlines will be:
Liberal activist Judges give thousands of non U.S. citizens right to vote.

And we March across the Globe Preaching Democracy!

Vote early for OBAMA! Lets fight against GOP dirty tricks!

Yes!!! Now Georgia go and turn that red state blue! No weapon formed against this election will prosper. Thank God for the College student that stood up and demanded the right that many people died for. Georgia will do the right thing. This election will not be stolen from the American people.

If I were a Repub I would be so ashamed of myself. You would think those conservative Christians would ask themselves what would Jesus do? What happend to the "morality" of this party, they will do anything to win. Now McCain/Palin are fighting about who's the biggest diva? What does the bible say about a house (or party) divided? Oh yeah it cannot stand. A double minded man (McCain) is unstable in all his ways. Yeah some of us Dems know the bible also, I would suggest you conservative Christians start boneing up on your bible you have alot to answer for.

m.c. , who are you to say who loves america most? Voting, and encouraging all americans to do so would seem like a great sign of affection for ones own democracy. Your "liberals hate america" argument is garbage, and it's time to take out the trash!
JUST GO VOTE!

Republicans trying to suppress votes? Why doesn't Sarah Palin talk about this? Isn't she concerned about democracy?

Could someone please tell Palin and McCain that 'spreading the wealth around' is what has been going on in America for hundreds of years. Why do they think we all pay taxes? Come on America. Does McCain think that the American people will fall for this?

Perdue travels the world (spain) when GA had no gas and i travel from kennesaw to catersville in search of fuel to go to work in Marietta. Chamblis is old politics.

Thank God for the Voter Justice.
OBAMA / BIDEN

I am so glad that the courts ruled in favor of upholding every American citizen's right to vote. It's good to know that these people would not be disenfranchised and forbidden their right to let their voice be heard and vote. This is the American way! We take care of our citizens not suppress their voices!!

Good for them. It is absurd that these people would have been denied their right to vote.

Fraudalent Voter Registration = Fraudalent Vote. Why? Because the "klerk" at the election booth is in on the fraud. So, when Jimmy Hendricks shows up to vote, she will let him. We will destroy the Frauds. WHITE POWER! 14, 88

VOTE MACCAIN/PALIN 2008

m.c. –
Obama ends every speech with "God bless you and God bless America"

what that has to do with anything, I will let you explain in what I'm sure will be a well thought out response.

Why does it always seem to be Republicans in power who are trying to play illegal games with our electoral system? Are they afraid of a fair fight? It is an abomination that they violated the Voting Rights Act, a landmark piece of legislation of the 1960s, achieved only after unspeakable atrocities had been committed, and that reaffirmed the right of all African-Americans to vote, despite the attempts by Klan-loving, ax-handle-wielding, poll-tax-promulgating bigots to deny the rights which were supposed to have been guaranteed by the Fifteenth, and supplemented by the Nineteenth, Amendment to the Constitution. It's very simple, really. Anybody – ANYBODY – and particularly including any elected official, who attempts to take away the rights of citizens to vote, should be subjected to the most severe penalties allowed by law, including maximum prison terms. These outrages must be called by their correct name. They are nothing less than fascist attempts to subvert the democratic process. They must stop, and it is the responsibility of all Americans to stand up and say, "ENOUGH." Shame, SHAME, on the Republican party. Mr. Lincoln would undoubtedly be horrified at the perversion of his soaring ideals.

Republicans= Allegations, constitutional infractions, rights and liberties stripped of the citezens, fraud, unethical conduct.

We can NOT allow this dictatorship to continue…ELIMINATE all republicans from office. They are a cancer to our nation. They have made a mockery of our democracy and must answer to the voters.

Handel is the same as every other scumbag republican, they are ALL criminals!

Democrats for liberty, and justice for all!

"kudos to acorn????" Will all this mindless garbage from the GOP ever stop. My niece is in school there in Georgia and received notice that she could not vote because she is NOT a citizen. That's pure garbage.

I think that the GOP has seen what "REAL" Americans call Democracy in action.

I pray to God that the days of Karl Rove attack like politics may soon be over forever

Down with the Party of Suppression!!

Hooray for the people pressing the courts to act BEFORE another election is stolen!!

NEWSFLASH!

All we heard today from McCain is "Redestribution of wealth" as being OBAMA policy. They shamelessly throw names at him at will calling him socialist etc etc. I have one question for them………………..

WHAT DO THEY CALL PALIN TAKING MONEY (TAXING ) BIG OIL AND GIVING THE MONEY TO ALASKANS????????????? SHE BOASTS ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME AND IT HAS BEEN WIDELY REPORTED.

These people are a big JOKE.
VOTE: OBAMA-BIDEN

In view of the last two tampered with elections, I'd like to know what percentage of these flagged voters are Democrats.

When will we get over the suppression of minority voters in this country, after all they will soon be a majority and you have to think – do we want to be treated the same way?

Not sure I see anything wrong with making sure voters are actually U.S. citizens before they are allowed to vote. You all keep saying why are Republicans so focused on blocking people to vote, then get all bent out of shape when people say let's make sure these are legal voters and they are only voting once. Would it be so hard to just think that it is best for everyone if it was a completely legal election with no voter incidents on either side? So much for unity. Obama posters are not for unity. I've never seen a more divisive group of people.

GREAT

THINGS ARE TURNING IN DEMOCRATS FVORE IN GEORGIGA.
ON OF THE LATEST POLLS SHOWS OBAMA LEADING MCCAIN
48 – 47.
IT IS HOPEFUL THAT OBAMA WILL CARRY GEORGIA O VICTORY. i WISHED THAT OBAMA HAD MADE A VISIT TO GEORGIA IN THE REMAINING DAYS OF CAMPAIGN.
THE SENATE RACE ALSO IS VERY CLOSE (CHAMBLEE, REP VS MARTIN DEM)
WE NEED A RALLY IN GEORGIA FOR OBAMA.
LETS CHANGE THE COLOR OF GEORGIA TO BLUE IN THIS ELECTION.
SO FAR OVER A MILLION GEORGIAN HAVE VOTD ERALY.
THERE IS A GREATER INTEREST IN THIS ELECTION THAN PAST.
THANKS TO OBAMA/BIDEN TICKET.

MNC SHOULD PAY A LIITLE MORE ATTENTION TO GA AN ARRANGE FOR AN OBAMA RALLY.

pick-pockit for president,"OBAMA".only you can stop a thief! vote MCCAIN/PALIN

SHAME ON YOU SARAH PALIN ITS TIME YOU CALM DOWN AND LET CHANGE PREVAIL……… IF NOT OF CHANGE YOU WOULD NEVER DRESS LIKE THAT.ITS TIME YOU TAKE TODD WITH YOU BACK TO ALASKA

Karen Handel is a disgrace to Georgia and to the fair and democratic ideals our country was founded upon. For those of you who don't know, it is rumored she is planning a run for the governorship in the coming years and the only way she can ensure that happens is by keeping her party in power by all means necessary. That is why she is reverting to these underhanded and illegal tactics and robbing eligible voters of their right to vote. While she may have lost this lawsuit, I am not sure what desperate means she will go to to ensure that her personal mission becomes a success. She has already filed a lawsuit against to remove Jim Martin (D) who is running for the Senate from the ballot, even after early voting has already begun. As you can tell, this is a selfish and conniving woman in our midst. I fear for the future of my state with someone like her in power.

This is a pretty brazen attempt at voter suppression.

" It is unfortunate that the plaintiffs filed suit to halt this federally required process."

It is unfortunate that the defendants even tried to suppress this federally protected right to vote in the first place, however not particularly surprising. There is a reason that this is supposed to happen at least 90 days before the election. You are supposed to be able to have ample time to get it straightened out so you can participate in the election. Easier for the already registered and eligible but rejected voter, easier for the administrative people to deal with the new registrations that always pour in LESS than 90 days before the election. Not only is this clearly an attempt to suppress the vote, its also an indication that some of the legally legitimate processes we use here are broken anyway, as this computer purging program shouldn't be flagging so many people who are clearly eligible to vote in the first place.

Republicans try to "purge" voters in Georgia and keep forclosed home owners from voting in Michigan… and they have the audacity to blame registrations issues for Mickey Mouse by ACORN employees trying to make $8 /hr on Obama?!??!!

After this election there needs to be a comprehensive investigation of all of the antics that the Republican and Democratic parties have pulled during this election. If there legal violations those involved need to go to jail. This garbage needs to stop.

Its great news because if they had denied the suit, other people who had doubt of their eligibility would have just decieded to stay home on election day, Am glad alot more people can now vote in Georgia, even though Arizona don't seem to be a possibility for Obama. But am still voting for him anyway.

why don't we just let putin,castro,chaves,iran nut job vote.we already allow terrorist to teach!!this country is no longer worth defending if this who knows what is elected??had i known 40yrs ago i wouldn't sacrificed!!

To everyone who has not yet voted. Please vote. Remember that when you are concerned about election fairness and protecting everyone's right to vote, that Secretary of State is a very important vote.

Those neocon repugliCONs will do anything to steal an election and it's about time the courts have said "Enough".

But you know those Fascist neocons, this one roadblock won't stop them from trying to steal or rig the election – They are probably rigging the Diebolt voting machines all across this country with the secret programming codes that Diebolt gave them as you read this…

SEN STEVENS NOW SARAH PALIN NEXT

Thank God that people have finally started to realize that the Republicans have been suppressing votes for years. This is, by and large, a group of people who cannot stand to see the status quo shaken up. I understand the corporate fat cats and wealthy not wanting to say goodbye to their meal ticket, but I have never understood the blue collar, uneducated mindset of people who vote Republican despite it being against their best interests.

As a student of politics, history and the law, I feel that this election is America's last chance to stand up for something good, beneficial, and most important, inclusive. No, all Democrats are not good, they have their share of corruption, too, but this particular presidential candidate has the will, the vision, and the intelligence to gather us together as the nation we can be.

And to m.c.: apparently you don't actual listen to Sen. Obama. Just today he ended a speech in Ohio with God Bless America. Pull your head out of your a## and pay attention.

ALL I SEE IS BLUE BLUE BLUE BLUE BLUE
BLUE IS BEAUTIFUL PLEASE DON'T FEEL ASHAMED TO JOIN THE BLUE FOR CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE
GO OBAMA/BIDEN '08
YES WE CAN

I live in Ga and I did voter registration for Obama on the weekends. I have already voted and have gotten alot of people actively involved in this election. I will take off work on the 4th to take the elderly around to cast their vote.

The republicans lost their way. It became about power and control of power rather than helping Americans to achieve the American dream. Shame on those leaders who betrayed the real republicans who helped to make this country great.

So happy to see this.

I have a question about college students voting. If they vote in their college town, what is to stop them from voting absentee in their hometowns? My nephews in PA will vote absentee for Ohio, their official residence, but they rent a house in PA, so what would stop them from voting there too?

Thank goodness!

Good.

I am so glad that Georgia citizens are getting their rights back after this "typo" by the computer. Now the same thing needs to happen in all the other states that are reporting this. That is why we need to GET OUT THE VOTE so this wonderful country can be wonderful again as it was back when President Clinton was in office. VOTE VOTE VOTE. It is your right. Use it. Obama08.

Who cares if you are a citizen or not, vote vote vote and then vote again. We are the world, we are the people…

Americans for global change and America giving up her Sovereignty.
08

I AM TIRED AND READY TO VOTE! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT OVER! I AM GROWING RESTLESS AND BURNED OUT OVER POLITICS THIS YEAR. I HOPE THE MCAINS FIND A NICE PLACE TO REST THERE TIRED BODIES AND HAVE A GOOD VACATION. POOR OLD OBAMA HAS HIS WORK CUT OUT FOR HIM. GOD BLESS HIS SOUL!

Steve

On many fronts, the Republicans sure are busy trying to keep people from voting.

The chief legal council for the Obama campaign, has asked the special prosecutor, ( investigating the bush administrations attempt to make federal courts a partisan political organ of the republican party), to investigate other republican attempts at voter supression also.

Obama/ Biden 08

Not This Year Republicans! Not This Year!

mc,

Mccain is a pandering machine. He says whatever the crowd wants to hear. In Florida? "how bout them rays?" In PA? "how bout those phillies?" In the bible belt? "we'll overturn roe v wade"

He's a consulate politician — he says ANYTHING to try to get votes. He goes so far as to badmouth certain parts of the country in an effort to be divisive.

Thanks but no thanks, john.

I think Democratic Liberals have to have illegal immigrinants, the homeless and every other down and out group to vote, in order to WIN…! What whiners…

Chuck

Leave it to the R party…which has been highjacked by right-wing extremists…to keep alive the grand old tradition of denying citizens their say at the polls. First it was women and blacks…..and now it's just anyone who may deny them power. The Republican party of Lincoln, Roosevelt and Eisenhower is dead…….and until it goes back to these roots, it will only serve as a voice of hatred and division in America…..which falls right into the hands or our enemies.

Voter fraud will decide this election, I fear. Either side will steal the election, another legacy that McCain’s friend W left us.

McCain and Palin are a sad display of Candidates. Stealing votes for them should is just as sad as the Mavericks…..chuckle chuckle

Finding of Judges uncostitutional, because, this helps so many people create the oppertunity too which they can vote in two diferent precincts. Is this a Demecratic finding or what???

All legitimate votes should be counted.

People voting for Obama must either be on welfare, or be very, very ignorant of the man's history, and his record in congress. Cannot believe our country has come to this …….letting a socialist get in. Very, very sad.

Another example of republican voter fraud and if the republicans get a chance to pack the federal courts like they did the Justice department, we are all in trouble.

Considering millions of people think the supreme court handed Bush the election in 2000… and still do…. I suspect the courts do not want to be thought of as handing another one to a republican.

m.c. why would you take the time and type such a lie and post it under this article. You must have never heard Obama speak. Obama always say Thank you and God bless America.

There is justice in America after all. For a while there I thought elections in America could be likened to elections in places like Zimbabwe. Whew!

There is nothing more fundamentally American than the right to vote. Kudos to the judges!

Once a upon a time in our history this could be directly proportional to that false wisdom of "POLE TAX". Behind that wisdom was racism. At least we again found equality at the federal level. The question still lingers — "WHY ARE THOSE THAT BELIEVE IN INEQUALITY THINK WE SHOULD TRUST THEM WITH OUR GOVERNMENT". For so long these closet people stayed in the closet. It seems when the very foundation of that wisdom has to be shaken before they show their real "mentality". These people only represent "oppression". That is what the "pole tax" represented. To try to apply "suppression" to "oppression" doesn't give the true seriousness and danger of what these "closet racists" were trying to do. To call them something else is to validate their actions. As MLK would say about one injustice is sure food for thought for the rest of us on "election day". Just think about the "ripple effect" if the panel went the other way. Ohio was the first stab by these closet people.Ga, was the second stab. The final act to their deceit will be on election day.

I use to be independent and swayed to the left for the most part but all this obama biased in the media has turned me to be Republican. I have the democrats to thank for that. As far as letting others vote I say good so be it. Let's hope those voters seriously delve into both canidates despite what either say. I also hope that no one votes because they are simply angry at any past administration from either parties and make a sound decision.

Thank goodness at least part of our judicial system still works.

Why do Repulicans hate America so much? Why are they constantly trying to supress the vote. Again, can somone please explain to me why do the Republicans or the GOP as they now like to be called hate America so much?

power to Democracy and freedom … Hope there is no repeat of 2000.

To correct m.c. I have to -quote- the end of Mr. Obama's Ohio speech today: "Thank you, God bless you, and may God bless America." I don't suppose they have tuned into his speeches, because he goes on an awful lot about how wonderful America is, and closes them all this way.

Now, it's not voting for McCain I take issue with. That's totally their right. It's the falsehood I take issue with. Don't say someone does or doesn't do or say something when there is proof that they do.

So, anyway. My 2 cents also says it's great everyone can get their vote in also.

Voter fraud will decide this election, I fear. Either side will steal the election, another legacy that McCain’s friend W left us. If the vote is truly counted it will be a landslide for Obama/Biden. With less than a week to go, John McCain is another day older and deeper in the polls and Sarah Palin is dressing down to reflect her diminished relevance in this campaign.

TO m.c who posted on October 27th, 2008 9:12 pm ET
" I think this country is wonderful!!! VOTE McCain!!!!"

. This country is wonderful! BUt you have not been thinking.
Bush < SillY Sarah and McCain have Peed on it and spread Manure on it.
Obama to do the cleanup.
Think this through since you claim to be thinking person

We can send people to the moon but can't create a voting machine or secure voting process for its American citizens!!

Please VOTE EARLY – Obama/Biden 08/12!!!!!

Only in America……….

Holy Smokes!! There might be some justice after all in voting resolutions, instead of uniform kowtowing to republican machinations. Keep it up! Not another 2000 or 2004!

What these states are doing with their secret, suspiciously timed purges is the true voter fraud in the form of suppresion. No thinking person believes all of that propaganda about ACORN trying to cause vote fraud. Not even close McCain/Palin. It just shows how desperate and pathetic you are.

Voter rolls need to be purged of ineligible voters. However, that needed to be done months ago, giving flagged voters plenty of time to remedy the situation. Obama No Doubt!, there is no physical connection, nor should there be, between a voter and his or her vote. There is no way void a voter's ballot after the election. At least that is the case here in Iowa; I don't know what insane system your state may use. And there is no republican conspiracy to suppress voter turnout.

Bob Barr 2008

D'ya think that more than a few of these people who may even be Republicans may now vote for Obama and the Democrats.

When the Republicans try to take away your right to vote that would likely be a game changer. This could mean another 55,000 votes for Obama.

If you can't prove you are a citizen you should not be able to vote. The fraud is letting them vote, not stopping them. This country has gone insane. This isn't democracy. Voter fraud at its finest.

Your vote will never matter 08. Think for yourself.

I am glad that the situaton has been settled. It is frustrating when eligible voters are being purged from the list because of their ethnicity, social economic status and party affiliation. CO has a lawsuit because the republican secreatary of state purged over 30,000 eligible voters from the list. Hope this settles fast.

Even the courts favoring Obama so for sure he will win good luck to all of them hope they don't have a nightmare every night when they fall asleep. But if McCain lose they can sleep at night because they know they didn't use the dirty trick.

there is still the issue of the confusing ballot in North Carolina, where the fear is that over 100,000 voters did not cast a vote for PRESIDENT. If they vote straight ticket and do not also vote PRESIDENT in addition, there will be no vote cast for President. The officials said "too bad if they don't know how to vote"…

Georgias elected GOP members are not very bright. Look what they allowed when Chambliss and fellow crooks did to a real hero and screwed him out of his office. When you have the likes of sick wife ditching by adulterer Gingrich and slick willie Bob Barr getting booted out of office due to ehical problems Georgia needs a complete makeover of politicos.

in responce to m.c:
Apparently you have never heard Obama give a speech because ALL the candidate end their speehes with God Bless America. Yes this is a GREAT country but we are in the dumps right now, what are you talking about???

I think there will be an overwhelming support to oust the GOP incumbents. Flush America's wound of the poison from the Bush/GOP cult.

Vote Obama/Biden!

-Tomkat-

I'm all for letting everyone vote, but it concerns me that there could be thousands of people voting in our election who may or may not even be citizens. If they're citizens, great, but if they're not, we're letting our nation's leader be chosen by citizens of outside countries…

Foreign Polls Show of the major free democratic states.

England for Obama
Germany for Obama
France for Obama
Australia for Obama
Italy for Obama
Canada for Obama

Israel for McCain

The “line” in the sand has been drawn.

Now the USA must choose!!! VOTE!

Wonderful, I was praying for Handel's unethical voter exclsuions to be overturned. This is a great day for Democracy!

its the only way the GOP will play…dirty

Thank heaven these people are getting to vote……why is there always such controversary with these darn elections……it happens every election cycle!!!!!!
You would think by now that we would have sorted out all these problems over the years……is there anyone out there who can simplify the voting system?????????///
All we want to do is go in and vote for the candidate we want, is that too much to ask…..and every time we have to go through the same old
stuff, it is very frustrating.
Having said all that I now feel better and would like to ask any voters who not voted to go and do it as soon as possible…..I have voted already and must admit I had no problem here in Florida.
Sen Obama is my candidate and the only choice as far as I'm concerned…..intelligent….calm…inclusive of all people….command of
the facts…and boy does he have charisma.
Need I say anymore……he is a President in waiting and I for one will be very proud to call him President Obama.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Kudos to ACORN

Obama all the way. Nova Scotia Canada

Hah! The Rethuglican are foiled again.

How bizarre for Handel to claim the judgement reinforces Georgia's registration verification process, when the court in fact ruled that it violated the Voting Rights Act. Typical twisted Republican "logic"

The good news is it looks like she won't appeal it

Thank God for early voting, this would have been a tragic if this were November 4th. What is the deal with these Republicans and their tactics to stay in office by suppressing voters and then raise hell about Acorn's registration? Duh! You can't vote without ID anyway so if Mickey Mouse registers unless he has ID he can't vote!!! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!! Did anyone see Bill Maher and the guy who wrote how to rig an election????

Justice prevails…………………If Georgia is going to turn blue we need every vote.

Re: Stevens "I'm Innocent" I'm glad, he'll fit right in the slammer; that is where all the innocent crooks belong. Palin will have to face her own ethics scandal sooner or later.

Yipee~~~~~~

I am very happy the republican trick didn't work. My own family voted on October 20th for Obama/Biden!!!

GOOD FOR YOU GEORGIA, NOW GO OUT AND VOTE FOR THE CHANGE WE ALL SO DESPERATLY NEED, VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN!

The Republican campaign to suppress the democratic vote is collapsing in flames, it seems.

Good pre-emptive legal action by Obama's people.

The Republican (Bush) plan to use the federal prosecuters to suppress the vote has likewise fallen apart.

Senator Stevens is found guilty to boot.

This is a perfect storm on the Republicans.

Serves them right.

This Is The Same Thing The Republicans Are Trying To Do In Ohio And Other Places! Its Not Going To Happen This Time! Some Of Those Red States Are Going To Turn Blue!

Repubs will not like that ruling, or any other ruling that keeps them from committing their usual election fraud.

The Republicans lose again. I tried to early vote in an Atlanta suburb in Gwinnett county today, and gave up after almost a 6 hour wait. This was definitely designed to discourage voters in this neighborhood where Obama is popular.

Palin goes off Reservation! Rouge VP! Is McCain crazy? Palin is the Republican Frankenstien! The last resort of the Failing McCain/Palin Campaign is to energize the base, Ignorant Right Wing Looneys! McCain followers are waking up from a long peaceful McBush slumber [voted 90 percent of the time with Bush], to find two pathetic morons, publicly displaying a cartoonish love affair with themselves, totally out of touch with Americans true issues [it's the ECONOMY!], and engaging in a revolting "McCain First" campaign! That's a tough wake up call, "MY FRIENDS"!
McCain's first Executive decision is to unleash a Fascist Psychotic With The Racist Twinkle In Her Eye [Awaiting Alaska Criminal Indictment For Abusing Power] scampering around our Nation dangerously drumming up Hatred & Bigotry [Wink Wink]. The obvious erratic incompetence of the McCain/Palin campaign provides us evidence enough that they are unfit for any public office, let alone the White House. Americans face the hardest financial disaster in the History of the USA, this is the McCain Policy? John McCain / Sarah Palin have no idea what Americans trying to survive face. 401K plans gutted, Unemployment, Foreclosures, Wall Street in the Tank, Main Street hopelessly waiting for a bail out, and the Global Economy in disarray…
McCain/Palin are a disgusting self serving disgrace undoubtedly proving they are not up to the complex task of keeping the Nation together in hard times. BTW: They can't even stay on the same page in their campaign!

P.S. Acorn / Ayers / Rev. Wright / Socialism / Raise Taxes on 250K A Year Income, Joe the Plumber AKA Sam Not Really a Plumber these are not the real issues facing America!

Poor McCain, he'll never admit it, but the sly little woman got the best of him. He should have chosen a more solid running mate. She is and has been a big joke.

Thats violation of Voters freedom exercise their democratic rights, let these legal voters vote.

This election is historic and all legible voters should be allowed to help in write a new history, a new face of America.

Glad to see the courts are sticking up for the rights of voters … if Georgia tries to appeal this to a higher court, then I really suspect the Republicans are resorting to attempts at affecting the election outcome by any means possible, particularly underhanded.

If you can't beat em….cheat! Thats the Republican way!

Instead of trying to cheat in Georgia, the RNC and McCain campaign should focus on trying to actually win ARIZONA. McCrazy's home state is now a battle ground with polls showing Obama within 2 points.

Thats violation of Voters freedom exercise their democratic rights, let these legal voters vote.

This election is historic and all legible voters should be allowed to help in write a new history, a new face of America.

Isn't Handel a lawyer? She's apparently not a very good one as she doesn't understand the law or the decision. She says "I'm grateful for the District Court panel's decision…" Well, too bad the decision doesn't allow the Secretary of State to be incarcerated. She says she's "grateful"; if she were locked up so she couldn't screw around with the election process, a lot more people would be "happy".

Wonderful!! We cannot have a repeat of 2000 when Bush stole the election.

Also can someone keep an eye on Diebold after the comments they made a while back about Ohio in 2004.

This won't be the only glitch come election day. I look for the voting machines to malfunction and the "chads" to fall thewrong way. Afterall, the Republicans have to come up on top somehow!
OBAMA/BIDEN 08!

What about the 30,000 voters in Colorado?

I truly believe the Republicans are trying to steal this election again

Will Michagin and Colorado follow suit

I wish that the election in Georgia would be close enough that this number of voters could mean that Georgia is still open to a fair count, but there are more subtle fixes that these people will try. Fortunately, they will not change the final outcome.

EVERYONE….

GET OUT THERE AND VOTE ANYTIME BETWEEN NOW and 6:59:59 on NOVEMBER…EVEN IF YOU ARE STILL WAITING IN LINE WHEN YOUR POLLING PLACE CLOSES AT 7(or whenever your polling precincts close) YOU CAN STILL VOTE…just NO ONE else can come in AFTER YOUR PRECINCT closes

TAKE YOUR TIME marking the ballot, bubbling in your circles, or touching the screens, or punching the cards….DONT GIVE ANY POLL WORKER OR ELECTION CLERK ANY ROOM FOR ERROR OR A REASON TO CRY FOUL.

DONT LET YOUR STATE COME DOWN TO A TIE VOTE–WE DO NOT WANT there to be ANY QUESTION AT ALL WHO THE WINNER IS—either way, we want to know, and we want to know SOON–as early as possible even if its the wee hours of the morning NOVEMBER 5..

I HOPE YOU WILL JOIN ME AND THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE 50+ PER CENT club and ELECT BARACK OBAMA the next PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The court system worked on the side of the people against the republican machination to win at all cost which includes compromising the democratic principles of rule by the people. I am disappointed and dismayed by the blatant display of power of the aristocratic rule by them. Of course they would argue that they are protecting the citizens by limiting the invasion of those who are not eligible to participate in the democratic process of election.

May be the repugs need to spend money on limiting and supervising their own politicians from engaging in illicit activities like the two convicts from Alaska.

Excellent. The systems can still be trusted.

I'm relieved that the courts got it right this time. We don't want to have a repeat of what happened in Florida in 2000 and Ohio in 2004. It sickens me how Republicans are constantly trying to suppress the vote. To me, there is nothing more "Un-American" than corrupting the democratic election process.

wow. What part of the Judges Order did REpublican Secretary of State Karen Handel not understand?
The part that says they illegally purged voters or the part that these flagged voters must be allowed to vote?
this is rather like Sarah Palin saying she was glad troopergate vindicated her when in fact they found she had violated ethics rules….
This is the amazing thing about the Republican party, and it must have worked for them at one time… say that black is white and some people will actually believe you.

Now there is fraud in Colorado – similar to what was found in Nevada and other states. Entitlement should be the theme of the Obama campaign, from the candidate himself to those who think they are entitled to rig an election in his favor.

Of course everyone who is eligible should vote-the key word being "eligible". No fake registrations and no double, even triple dipping. All thinking people should by now realize that McCain is the solution to help Democrats and Republicans to make this country even greater than it is. Clinton and Bush have both caused what problems we do have, and those problems are small compared to the rest of the world. McCain always finishes his speeches by saying "God bless America". He always says how great the U.S.A is!!!! Obama says none of this. Obama only complains and says how this country needs change. I think this country is wonderful!!! VOTE McCain!!!!

Like Robert DeNiro said to Matt Damon in the movie, 'If I am going to err, I prefer to err on the side of democracy.'

I guess I must really be missing something. I am surprised that the process of voter verification and authentication appears to be an event that occurs shortly before an election. It would seem to make more sence for that to be an on-going process with notices being sent to questionable voters at a specific time each year. Surely that would avoid these 11th hour nightmares.

So the Sec'y of State found it unfortunate that US citizens filed suit to be allowed to vote- I guess she thought they should just walk away & keep their mouths shut—sorry Repugs– it's not going to be as easy to steal this one!

hurray for them!I'am tired of these republicans and their shady tactics.

How many of these voters are black? 90%–95%?

Evidently there seems to be flaws. FIX IT!

This is great news. Now before you vote make sure you check all the facts and you will find some extreme corruption in Alaska.Palin has made a diaster by abusing her power and ethics in the Alaska Pipeline project.Do some research and you will find she is indeed not part of doing the right thing,and the opposite of a reformer on this so called independent energy project.She broke ethics law on the negotiations for bidding in a very big way.She is slated to be VP and runs on reform, and mavericking and is the complete opposite.Look out and beware

Hopefully all the purged voters will be allowed to vote upon proof that they are eligible. And I hope that Handel is ashamed of herself!

It's great that the Feds put the hammer down on Georgia. If Georgia had a problem with these voters being ineligible, they should have raised the issue more than 90 days before the election. That way, any questions about their citizenship could be thoroughly investigated. Raising these issues weeks (now only 1 week) before the election is ridiculous. These tactics are typical of Republicans in hopes of supressing voter turnout, especially amongst the disenfranchised and minorities. If it does turn out that these voters were not citizens, then their votes can be voided after the election. If they aren't allowed to vote and it turns out that they were citizens, they will have been denied their fundamental right to vote for no reason.

Wow… with all this purging by republican appointees how can anyone say repubs DON'T cheat. Have you ever heard of a democratic appointee "purging" the voter roles?

We Americans will not stand for this corruption of our voting system by Republican Lawyers and Bankerd hell bent on trying to stop history.

Lets throw the bums out!
Make every vote count.

Voter verification stories such as this led me to check my own identification cards for accuracy. Everyone should do the same immediately. I found the street name on my I.D. misspelled and was able to have the error corrected. Having a voice in this election is far too important to take a chance of being denied the right to vote because of a clerical error.

I am glad the courts made the right decision. The right to vote is a fundamental right of Americans. To deny someone because of a system purge is suppression.

Thank you, judges. You've helped restore some of the faith I lost when the Supreme Court handed the 2000 election to GWB. On the behalf of struggling voters everywhere, thank you very much.

More voter suppression, as instituted by the Reptilians?

Handel said in a statement, "It is unfortunate that the plaintiffs filed suit to halt this federally required process."

Which translates to : "it's unfortunate that the judges will allow more democrats and immigrants to vote in this election."
Why are republicans so focused on blocking people's right to vote? That’s the most un-American thing I've ever heard.

Good…

McCain's Lynch mob isn't as discrete as Karl Rove's was.

GO GEORGIA!!!!!! COME ON EVERYONE HELP ME TO TURN GEORGIA BLUE..and I don't mean blue food coloring in our peaches!!!!!!!!

OBAMA/BIDEN
MAKE THE USA GREAT IN 2008

Wow. The republicans know they can't win when everyone votes so they have been doing everything they can to exclude everyone they can.

Thank God there are a few judges who believe in the constitution.

Karen Handel has her eyes on the governor's mansion here in Georgia. Instead of purging the rolls, she should be working on getting us a paper trail to track those suspicious Diebold voting machines.

it's bad news all the way around for the Republicans: judges rule against every attempt to block voters, a convicted, corrupt Senator, troopergate, $150,000 project runway, and Sarah Palin. Is there a lesson in all this?

GA let's illegals vote and Virginia throws out ballots of our military men and women stationed overseas! Does this not seem right somehow?

Not this time,we cannot let them steal another election…

Truth – the American way.

The wolves have started their hunt to cause havoc and try and deny the voters due process by law. You know Handel knows that they can't purge 90 days before a vote and she did it anyway. This is a true attempt at subversion; completely contrary to American law, truly an anti-American act that borders on terrorism. By the way Handel won't be the only one trying to do this or something similarly anti-American.

Did the $832,000 that obama's campaign gave to acorn help with all this voter fraud – OH YES – did dem. government perpetuate it – OH YES

Democracy in Action ………

Hope GA is Blue in 08!!!!!!!!!!!

YES – FREEDOM, DEMOCRACY FROM THE RIGHT WINGED RADICALS. WE THE PEOPLE CAN BREATH AND VOTE WITHOUT THREAT ONCE AGAIN!!!

STOP THE RIGHT WING RADICALS AND JOHN MCCAIN

OBAMA 08

Power to the people..LONDON. CAN.

I hope all other states follow suit and not allow any voter suppression this year. I think all of the accusations being made by republicans is just an attempt to justify all the fake claims of irregulations planned when Obama wins.

Obama/Biden 08

Thank you judges for ruling the way you did because I believe everybody should have the right to vote, either republican or Dems.

Attempted purges, meant to manipulate election results, are nothing new. What does seem to have changed, thankfully, is people deciding they will not take the situation lying down.

Great news! No one deserves to be disenfranchised due to database issues. Now go out and exercise your right to vote GA!

Just to took a break tonight and tuned into FAUX (FOX) News. I heard O'Riley talking about Obama blurbing a book.
OMG Republicans…is that all you have left!
It is over for at least 4 more years. Take Stevens and Palin and hope you can out run the guilty verdicts.
BYE BYE Republican and don't let the door hit you on the way our!

I'm glad the American people are fighting back against GOP election suppression.

Only if we're aware will we actually win. When we're paying attention, we all win.

Rethuglicans again trying to steal the election.
We need to crush the wingnuts in a landslide.
Obama/Biden 08

Justice.

Sorry Republicans, but the people get to vote this year.

Did she read the court's ruling? How does the ruling reinforce her myopic view and voter suppresssion? These republicans will not stop lying. One was convicted today. How can you claim to pro-american if you stand against basic american rights a) to vote b) for the truth……?

How low can the republicans go?

Once again last minute Republican BS, why wasn't this done months ago?

Anything to help McClueless win!

And to help Chumpliss, as well! How old is he any way? Older than McClueless?

What a surprise – Republican officials purging valid records! Just another attempt to steal yet one more election! This time voters will not stand for it!

Voter supression will survive this election cycle. This ruling has to be GOOD news for the Obama campaign.

Sure, why not have illegal immigrants and criminals vote in this election — those are the types of voters attracted to Obama — Heck , there will be a flood of illegals coming across the border if Obama gets in becasue they have all heard about Obama's redistribution of wealth platform. America get ready for the Great Depression Part II as we had into the great abyss that is Obamaland

The GOP will, as usual, cry foul. But ask yourselves, and ask them, if this was not an attempt to disenfranchise voters who might vote against them, then why is it nationwide; and why did they wait to just before the election to 'flag' these voters.

Obama the Arab will cheat this election away from the Americans that were born here. Unlike Barry…

The courts are right! do not let anyone suppress your vote!

*******************Obama and Biden 2008! ******************************

Nice try McCain.
Expect to see a tidal wave of Republican dirty tricks between now and next Tuesday.
If you are still able to vote early where you live then THERE IS NO TIME TO LOSE.

GOOD.

"Voter Purge" pursued by this Georgia republican is ILLEGAL. Whereas, "voter registration" allegedly by ACORN is NOT.

Thank you God.
Oh and the courts too.

As is widely known about Georgia's illegal elections, the state will once again figure out a way to make this election illegal. For fun, read about the time that Georgia had three Governors at one time. Or, read about the time that Talmadge had more votes from one county than there were citizens of the county. Georgia is as backwards as it gets. Trust me, I live here. Red is red (as in redneck will vote red).

I wonder how come the media isn't all over this. So much for palin being the most popular governor.

"Anchorage Daily News, the most prominent newspaper in United States’ state of Alaska, the home state of the Republican Vice-Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, has endorsed the Democratic candidate, Barack Obama".

See – even Alaska knows she isn't qualified.

Go Barack!!!!!

This comes as REALLY good news. Illegal voter suppression from Republicans in order to rig this election for McSame and Failin is not only inappropriate, but also underhanded, despicable, and reprehensible….but I guess those are traits of the modern GOP.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008!!!

Let's turn some more RED on this map to BLUE!!!!

good news, and about the 2 men who threatened Obama,..
What did you expect Sarah?

another reason why the dumbocrats will win….i don't think they need the illegal vote this year but the amnesty vote 4 years from now will prove crucial…20 million law breakers…

Gee, once the next pro-amnesty President is in office (because they are both the same) we'll have 12 million more Democrats voting to take money from those that have earned it and give it to those that live off the "system". Sad days for our soon-to-be-gone Republic.

Good news. Various states are trying any underhanded method they can come up with to suppress the voting rights of bonafide citizens.

Now if they can investigate the following:

*Voter intimidation in New Mexico
*Voter machine flips in WV, TX, and NC
*Voter roll purges in CO
*Bush insertion into the Supreme Court Decision in OH
*Voter machine breakdown throughout FL

. . .and that just a start.

Fight for your right to vote no matter who you are voting for.

Don't accept provisional ballots without knowing your rights to vote and your rights as a citizens – provisional ballots may not be counted;

Ensure you have proper Identification – two forms in some states

Don't leave home without your voter registration card if required to have one –

Let your voices be heard — it doesn't matter who registered you (ACORN, Campaign GOTV, or if you did it yourself) – if you are legal you are legal — period.

Now post that CNN!

Thank god! God bless America!

Man, Sal from Howard Stern exposed Obama supporters big time.

Search You Tube for Harlem Voters Obama.

He asked them if they are voting Obama. If they said yes, then he asked them why they support Obama, but he gave all of McCain's policies (stay in Iraq, anti stem cell) as reasons and they all agreed as the reasons why they are voting for him.

The most ridiculous is that two people said "Sarah Palin will do a good job as VP for Obama"

Remember liberals, these are your fellow Obama voters…you keep GREAT company….

"Will you be glad Obama selected Palin as his VP if he wins?" "YUP!"

McCain with 2% lead – IN ARIZONA.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Score another one for Democracy!!!

Obama/Biden '08

Thank Goodness!

It must have been gutwrenching for many of the flagged voters…this is the most historic election of our lifetimes and to be denied playing their dutiful part of that historical event would have been criminal.

To those who think Obama is here because of the black support:
In case you haven't noticed but blacks only make up for 17% of the voting population and history has shown that about 12% vote Democrat during a general election. With that being said, the Democratic nominee is guaranteed about 12% of the electorate votes. The reason why I say 12% because Bush got 5% of the black vote in 2004 and almost 3% in 2000. Anyway, Obama is where he is at because of the support of AMERICANS who want change…black, white, asian, hispanic, rich, poor, handicap, young, and old.
