“I waited in line for three and a half hours,” said Chris Purcell, “but some girl said I was a Kerry supporter and they took my ticket and ripped it up.”

um, is it possible that all of philly wasn’t registered before?

maybe even though the city is losing inhabitants, certain people who are still there who weren’t registered previously now ARE for this race. couldn’t that explain how names were added to voter rolls despite suburban flight?
just an annoying independent asking.

WasnÂ’t it GoreÂ’s lawyers who were trying to use conflicting standards to interpret a ballot in Florida?

But Bush’s lawyer’s were trying to stop the recount altogether, so your point is moot.

That’s not disenfranchisement – that’s what happens when you have poorly educated voters not double-check their ballots. That these poorly educated voters are the product of Democrat-protected public schools is another story.

Wow, I don’t know what to call that statement..class war? Is your allegation that the ability to check the ballot directly corrolates to education that democrats make worse via public schools or better via public schools? I’m a product of public schooling, so should I go register with idiots-r-us?

In California and Arizona, Democrats are working overtime to get non-citizens registered, and if someone has the temerity to ask for proof of citizenship, they are branded as a racist.

You don’t actually refute T’s point at all; Maybe you didn’t see but in 2000 but the people shouting down the voting recount, who were from out of state, were eventually tracked back to Tom Delay. Link your California story, and I’ll provide link’s to over 20 worse incident’s that like T said link back to the RNC heads.

Democrats are hardly paragons of virtue. They just whine about it incessantly.

Oh yes your right, Democrats aren’t paragon’s of virtue, but compared to current crap, they are no longer whining about it, but retaliating by making sure EVERYONE get’s to vote.

Oh, puh-leaze! Wasn’t it Gore’s lawyers who were trying to use conflicting standards to interpret a ballot in Florida? In Democratic-controlled counties, having approved a Democratic designed butterfly ballot – they reported the greatest number of improper ballots. That’s not disenfranchisement – that’s what happens when you have poorly educated voters not double-check their ballots. That these poorly educated voters are the product of Democrat-protected public schools is another story. In Democratic Philadelphia, the voter rolls are increasing, while the city continues to lose people to the suburbs. In California and Arizona, Democrats are working overtime to get non-citizens registered, and if someone has the temerity to ask for proof of citizenship, they are branded as a racist.

Democrats are hardly paragons of virtue. They just whine about it incessantly.

It’s the same with everything else — the Iraq prison scandal, the abuse of the patriot act, the intolerance for other points of view, the fake piety, the lies about the WMD’s and everything else, etc. There’s a pattern to it. These are people who only crave power and wealth and are willing to do anything to get and keep it.

Vote tomorrow and vote for your best interests not theirs.
