Their doing it again " Voter Fraud "
Edited on Sat Oct-25-08 05:17 PM by Larry L. Burks
There is a Federal Law that states that it is illegal to delete any body's name off the voters list. " 90 days ". Before any election.
For any reason.
To do so would be a Felony. " Voter Fraud ".


Voter requisition stops 30 days before en election.



Then I read here that when we were out reasserting new voters.
And a lot of those voters registered after the " no delete " deadline date.

And now I read that most of those new voters names have been remover during the no delete " grace period". Of the 90 day rule.

That is a violation of our Federal Elections Laws.

I don't care who did it.
Or how many did. Wither at the county level or the state level.

All it would take is for one person to have his name removed from the voters list. For what ever reason. In order for some one else to have go to jail.

And now you tell me that 10,000 + people have been remover from the voters list.

Some body's going to have to go to Jail. A lot of people are going to have to go to jail.

This is a criminal matter. Jail time.

This is a Federal election.
This is a Federal law.

May be some one should be calling the FBI about right now.

May be some one should be calling the Obama camp about right now.
They tell me that they have 5000 lawyers in wait on the side for just such an occasion.
Wouldn't it be better to call the Obama camp before the election.

Instead of after the election.

Sure it would.

When every they delete names of the repeater's voters list.

It's like playing poker.

They are bluffing.

If you don't call their bluff.

They win.

You have to call their bluff.

We have nothing to lose by doing so.
And every thing to win.

1. Larry we're working on it
But Texas is a tough nut to crack. They control the Legislature, the Governor's office and the Secretary of State's office. But believe me everything is being investigated. We don't expect bush' Department of Justice to give us much help.

Hell after all Bush is trying to send them into Ohio to mess with Ohio even though the Supreme Court ruled against them and for the Democratic Secretary of State Brunner there.

We're one our own on some things. We just have to kick up the vote and be vigilant at the polls and keep voting.

2.  Quick! Some body plug up that Dam Hole. We are losing votes Fast.
If their planing to do to Texas. The same thing that they are doing to Ohio right now.

First they Close access to the Public Voters Records.

Where nobody can see what they are doing.

Purge the registered voters list.

Keep it closed till after election day.

Then when ever body shows up at the polls at the last minute, on the last day to vote.

They jam the phone lines. Have long lines at the polls.

No one gets to vote. People find out to late that they have been removes from the voters list to do any thing about.

I can see it all now.

What we need to do now is get ever body to vote early.

So that they don't get shut out turned a way by the long lines and the purged the voters dirty trick thing.

If you move to vote early. And if you're an eligible voter that has been removed illegally from the voters list.

You will still have time to go down to the County Registered Voter's Offices and get back on the list again.

This is a must do. This time around.

We still have a week to go.

We can win this election. If we use our heads and fight back.

Voting Early is the best thing that we can be doing right now.

Vote Early. It's the smart thing to do. Spread the word. Tell ever body what's happening in Texas. Talk it up at work. Get on the phone.

No time to lose. We must act quickly. Or all is lost.

3. The purges have already happened
They did a round of purges in 2004 and 2006. You are right however that the National Voting Rights Act (NVRA) is a federal law that prohibits voter purges within 90 days of an election. And it is a huge problem across this country. Not just Texas.

U.S. PIRG just released a report in Sept of 2008 detailing the problems in states across America not following NVRA.

Vanishing Voters: Why Registered Voters Drop Off the Rolls

2008-09-24
Executive Summary

Recommendations

1. States should assess their compliance with the NVRA and immediately take steps to ensure they are following federal law.

2. Each state’s Secretary of State or chief election administrator should send a letter to election officers and local officials explaining and clarifying the rules.

3. The Department of Justice must enforce the NVRA, including the 90-window and the notification requirements.

4. States should properly train state and local employees who are responsible for managing voter rolls in order to reduce the likelihood of improper purging.

5. States should be prohibited from purging a voter from the rolls unless his or her name, address, sex, and phone number match the person whom should be removed.

6. Any state with a problem maintaining the rolls should be required to conduct an internal investigation.

7. Congress should expand the NVRA notification rule so that all voters who are dropped from the rolls are notified rather than just those who are being dropped because they have moved.

8. States should post purged names on a public forum that is free to access, such as the Internet.

There are numerous ways in which states are in non-compliance with NVRA rules and, in so doing, jeopardizing the right of eligible voters to vote. By adopting these recommendations, government can promote the democratic process and help ensure that citizens who are entitled to vote have the opportunity to do so.


Texas violates the NVRA by not notifying all voters that they are about to be dropped off the rolls for non-activity.
