Obama campaign becoming desperate, Homeless driven to vote for Obama

^^^ wrong thread

 

This thread certainly exploded in somebody's Faos in record time.

 

Good post.

I am glad people are getting involved and involving others to register to vote.

Signs of a healthy democracy.

 

My concern, where this people given incentives to vote?

 

Yup. But we all know people who have there home foreclosed shouldn't vote so homeless people should definately not allow to vote either! How dare they claim they are us citizen when don't even have a roof over their head.

 

OK, so lets look at the FACTS.

1. They are checking for some form of identification prior to letting people cast a ballot. The GOP is complaining that this is too lax. But Project Vote argues that anything more restrictive than this could deny a legitimate voter the right to cast a ballot.

NOTICE TO ALL VOTERS (R.C. 3503.28(A)(6))

“Voters must bring identification to the polls in order to verify identity. Identification may include a current and valid photo identification; a military identification, or a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or other government document, other than a notice of election or a voter registration notification sent by a board of elections, that shows the voter’s name and current address.

Voters who do not provide one of these documents will still be able to vote by providing the last four digits of the voter’s social security number and by casting a provisional ballot. Voters who do not have any of these forms of identification, including a social security number, will still be able to vote by signing an affirmation swearing to the voter’s identity under penalty of election falsification and by casting a provisional ballot.”


2. The other issue in question was whether those that sign up to vote today can immediately request an absentee ballot. The GOP argued that a voter must be registered for 30 days before they can cast an absentee ballot. The court agreed but said that because the ballot is actually COUNTED on election day, it didn't matter if the person requested the provisional ballot the day that they registered.

I'm with you Faoust, I hope, as I'm sure you do, that if McCain gets elected he will pass some legislation that will forbid poor people from voting. At least make it more difficult.

 

So stop calling playing by the rules "fraud" you lying liar.

 

Is a ride to the polling place incentive to vote?

 

Getting the homeless to vote is not the problem.

The problem occurs when you give them cigarettes, booze, hotdogs in exchange for voting for a particular candidate.

 

That would be a problem.

Luckily in this case that hasn't even been brought up.
