Let me get this out there now...

Sometime in the near future, look for legislation on Universal Voter Registration - or it may be hidden in some other nice sounding legislation.

From John Fund...

In January, Chuck Schumer and Barney Frank will propose universal voter registration. What is universal voter registration? It means all of the state laws on elections will be overriden by a federal mandate. The feds will tell the states: 'take everyone on every list of welfare that you have, take everyone on every list of unemployed you have, take everyone on every list of property owners, take everyone on every list of driver's license holders and register them to vote regardless of whether they want to be...'

What the Dems know that we don't: Universal Voter Registration



Here's more voter food for thought.

George Soros has a plan (funded by gov't) to capture as many Secretaries of State (in the 50 states) as possible because they are responsible for counting the votes. They are gearing up for the 2012 elections by getting more of their people in place in the 2010 elections.

The three he is endorsing is Mark Ritchie (Minn.), Debra Bowen (CA), and Jocelyn Benson (Mich.)

Their people are currently in Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, and West Virginia.

Yep. Republicans prefer to make voting difficult. Anything that increases voter registration numbers decreases their chances of winning elections.

Increasing voter registration is equivalent to rigging an election?

I assume by "rigged" you mean, making it easier for people to have a voice in the process.

God, don't you ever get a nose bleed from all that Republican spin? Universal Voter Registration should be welcomed by everyone, especially all the Acorn hating squirrels on this site. How about reading something creditable on the topic: Voter Registration Modernization | Brennan Center for Justice (http://www.brennancenter.org/content/resource/universal_voter_registration_draft_summary/ - broken link)

More conservative paranoia. So typical. To a large number of conservatives, everything is a conspiracy against them - even a voter registration drive. I pity them.

I guess making sure all of those who are constitutionally protected rights to vote are registered is rigging an election.

I guess we have to make sure only those folks with money can vote.

Go America, protecting ourselves with emotionally dramatic propaganda against our own freedoms & rights.

I guess you mean his multimillion donation in efforts to defeat GW in 2004. I am real sorry that effort failed.

Seems a lot easier for ACORN to engage in voter fraud when you register people who do not vote.

Ah, yes, when all else fails, say "ACORN", even when it's irrelevant to the discussion.
