Sec. Blackwell trying to disqualify new voter registrations
Advertisements [?]
In Ohio, there's an archaic rule that says new voter registration forms have to be printed on 80-pound paper. This goes back to the days when the cards were physically filed, rather than scanned and databased. It also has to do with the fact that the standard cards are actually "reply postcards" and the weight is required for the USPS.

So, now this assbag Blackwell wants to throw out any forms they've received that aren't on the 80-pound stock, even though they no longer physically file them, and even though they have already been received at the Sec. of State's office to be entered into the system.

This is clearly a partisan scam to trash registration forms printed from the internet, even though the very official looking sites where you can do this make no mention of the 80-pound paper requirement.

So, bouncing registrations for internet-leaning new voters? Think those skew Democrat?

We now have our answer.

BTW, this guy is a puke who has his eye on replacing our "idiot, stupid, corrupt, dumb, rotten Republican governor" in '06. Heaven help us...
