Uppity Wisconsin

Update: Voting-rights activists cut a deal with Colorado's secretary of state late Wednesday that will ensure some 20,000 voters removed from state rolls will get to cast a ballot.

Colorado is in play with a slight and growing Obama lead, and together with a Virginia win for Obama would all but guarantee a victory for the Democratic nominee.

The GOP is trying suppress voters en masse, courtesy of Colorado's Katherine Harris: Secretary of State Mike Coffman.

Fortunately, the judge hearing the case is Judge John L. Kane, a rule-of-law judge with an honest reputation.

From the Brennan Center for Justice's Susan Lehman:

Colorado may have illegally purged 27,000 voters from the state's voter registration lists.

Forget ACORN (and here's a good article about how they've actually followed the law), here's the real case of voter fraud that no one wants you to notice - since 2004, as many as 13 million voters have been purged from the roles. This is the concerted effort being perpetrated on American citizens by elected officials like Wisconsin Attorney General J. B. Van Hollen, and those in 39 other states.

They're using clerical errors to suppress voter turnout, folks. This isn't a matter of "cleansing voter roles" for inaccurate information. This is a war on democracy. And it's being done today, illegally, within 90 days of the election.

13 million voters purged. Think about that. And naturally, it's heavily occurring in battle ground states.

The Brennan Center for Justice has the details in its latest report.

And, shock, even mainstream media outlets are beginning to take notice. Here's the latest from CBS.

Face it Republicans, you are going to lose and you are going to lose big.

But not without a lot of whining and lying first.

Brad Friedman eviscerates the GOP voter fraud lie aimed at the group ACORN, the Association for Community Organisations for Reform Now.

The crimes of ACORN are as Friedman writes in The Guardian:

... that Acorn managed to register some 1.3 (million) low-income (read: Democratic-leaning) voters over the past two years. The rest is, pretty much, just made up. ... Despite the screaming wall-to-wall coverage of 'Democratic voter fraud in 11 swing states' as seen on Fox News and even the once-respectable CNN, none of it's true.

The highly respected Brennan Center for Justice at New York University's School of Law, has a comprehensive, well researched and documented white paper by Justin Levitt on recent allegations of voter fraud allegedly occurring in Wisconsin and other states within the last eight years, entitled, "The Truth About Voter Fraud."

Once you read it, your eyes will be opened to the sham that is being perpetrated upon the U.S. voters. In fact, one could easily argue that the widespread rumors of voter fraud exist to confuse the populace and further deepen the cynicism of our electoral process. These efforts may also serve a larger agenda to keep real voting reform off the table, that is, extending the time people are allowed to cast votes; make it LESS burdensome for people to vote in the first place; and acts by political campaigns to buy votes, among many others.
