They are staying at shelters. They have to give an address to vote and they can give the address of the shelter.
Here in MA you don't have to show ID to vote if you have registered.
...if you meet your state's rules for voting then you should be able to vote...end of story.
Yup.
This thread is another JUNK thread attacking Obama and the Democrats with some silly worthless argument.
If you meet the requirements you ARE allowed to vote. Nothing wrong with others helping you get to the voting booth if you lack transportation and/or a home.
Homeless people who have an id and can proof they have no criminal background should be able to vote but not because they get dragged there in exchange for money, food or anything else. IMO most homeless people don't even care about the elections but about their day to day survival.
I'm also aware of people who chose to be to live like this....hard to believe but true. In Europe with the socialized system every one gets welfare, even homeless people so they don't have to live like that....there is even one famous homeless person who had rich parents, lived in the street and was bagging for money and raised so much that everyday he ended up going to a home so he was not what he was seen for on a daily base and TMZ, yes TMZ had images a while ago from a homeless guy who always is where the celebraties are and he collects hundreds of dollars....when he leaved to go, he took a cab and stated he was going home!!!!
So I'm not against homeless people voting unless they can proof who they are...but since dead people have been voting a I'm very reserved about this!

While this may be true, it does not represent the homeless population in general. Many of us are one stroke of bad luck away from being homeless. If you don't have family to fall back on, you are out of luck.
If you have proof of something illegal going on, by all means contact the media. Why waste your time complaining to us? While you're at it, contact the FBI. The media would love to see your proof and that way you'll accomplish something. Unless, of course, this is just something you "heard."
From Ohio Election Rules:
Quote:
Ohio voters are required to show identification such as a driver's license or a passport.

What does having a criminal record have to do with voting? Unless you have been stripped of your right to vote (felon's in SOME states) you can vote. If they are registered they should be allowed to vote.
As delusianne said, you are ALONE in the voting booth. Even if a homeless person is taken to the polls by a democrat and given food by a democrat, s/he is not forced to vote for a democrat. There is absolutely nothing stopping republicans from helping out some homeless people and getting them registered to vote and helping them get to the polling places to vote on November 4th. Perhaps that could be a great volunteer community service activity for you, Bentlebee!

I guess so..it can happen to any one and sad enough it happened to many Vietnam veterans who deserved a better treatment....but for the Silicon Valley people who became rich by selling ARM's and basically scammed many innocent first time buyers....I don't feel so much sorry for them, but I do feel sorry for their kids....but if the guy who gets 90 million from Freddie or Fanny in 6 years...is going to loose it all...so be it, but I guess that won't happen, because he is one of the puppets of Obama and can pull any string!
I have nothing against homeless people voting, but shouldn't they at least proof who they are....they could be convicted felons, sex offenders illegal aliens, etc.....
I heard that they can vote....this campaign makes me think certain people in this country do anything to win and have their candidate win this election which makes it IMO a fraudelent election.
In other countries only people who have identification papers and an address can vote. This to prevent fraud. People get their voting cards send to their address (or you have to give notice that you are away and they will send it to another address if you have proof) to avoid fraud.
In Florida the laws have changed and convicted felons can vote but only the non violence one, so who can proof that the homeless who have no identification are who they are and aren't convicted felons convicted on murder, etc....
If the Dem. take them on a bus to get them to the voting precinct, what else are they giving them to get their vote? Food, money, etc, what does it cost for the Dem. to get that vote?
Your entire post is elitist and repulsive.
