The Montana GOP dropped their voter registration challenge Tuesday night, mostly due to the outrage from the media and anger from the Democrats and their supporters.
Of course when one political party attempts to “challenge” a few voter addresses, the other party will use it to their advantage and cry “voter suppression.” The Montana Democrats and the Obama campaign here in Montana cried very loud. They won for now.
Yes, it would be the same if the Montana Democrats were doing a voter challenge, except the Montana media would lightly report it.
In my opinion, this was not a big thing that the Montana GOP was trying to do, except it was the Montana GOP doing it. The challenge snowballed into something it was not. Nobody on that list was being suppressed; all they had to do was fill out a form, get it notarized and return it. I’m sure their political party would have helped them. All in all it appeared to be legal, too.
Meanwhile, there are issues with voter fraud in about a dozen states so far. I wrote about a group with connections to Barack Obama called ACORN and their problems in Nevada yesterday. ACORN has registered about 1.3 million voters nationwide according to this article. The seized computers and boxes of documents in Nevada. Today I saw a story about voter fraud in Missouri where one person was recently registered under the same name about 15 times. Dead people are being registered in Indiana.
This is serious, folks. Sadly, there’s basically nowhere to turn. A political party will be attacked by the other political party if they challenge voters. Media organizations mostly lean to the left, so there’s little help there. Election officials belong to political parties, so many of these people won’t help, if it hurts their candidate. The judges are elected or appointed by politicians. There’s basically nobody to turn to, so our election process is in peril.
