The polls are reflecting all of the voters Acorn signed up...!
I don't think absentee ballots, Or early voting by any means, should be allowed. Perhaps a week, but not nearly as long as it's done now....

Yeah, this way they wont be able to prevent thousands of legal voters from casting their vote like they did in 2004, when there were literally lines hours and hours long (of course in the Democratic leaning districts only) and lots of people finally had to give up and go home. I know of people in Ohio who experienced this first hand. So this way they can vote early and at least get their vote in, as is the right of every American, not just those living in Republican districts with their ample voting machinery.

I remember that on the news. Looks like payback time for the GOP, many of whom deserve to swing from a rope, if for no other reason than the utter insane hypocrisy of stealing the 2004 election in Ohio while pointing out the beauty of "free" elections in Iraq. The Bush years are proof that Greek tragedies of epic scale still play out on the world stage.

Early voting is most likely used by more lower class democrats, so this is not a good way of predicting the results.
