130. Come to think of it,
Edited on Wed Oct-13-04 05:03 PM by nebula
Its plain crazy to entrust your voter registration to someone on the street. You don't know where the hell its going to end up. It makes as much sense as giving your wallet to a stranger for safekeeping.

As someone mentioned , make sure you are registering at an official location, such as the post office.

I don't understand how any private company can be allowed to handle voter registrations. Shouldn't you be able to mail in your registration or drop it off at the post ofice or something instead of of having to entrust some stranger on the street or at the mall to process it for you??

I wish the Democratic Party and other like minded organizations would start a campaign, complete with mass television and newspaper advertisements, to raise awareness of the potential for voter fraud. A campaign to raise awareness and educate the public to be wary of entrusting their voter registration to someone other than a bona fide official source, such as the US post office.

In fact, such a campaign to raise awareness and educate the public should have been started LONG before this Nov. election. But with only 3 weeks remaining before the election, its too damn late now. As usual, the Democratic leadership are asleep at the switch. This kind of voter fraud should have been anticipated long ago considering how utterly simple it is to pull off and considering what happened in 2000.

It truly is amazing how no one has thought of it until the last minute
