Never AGAIN were the cries heard from the rooftops from the DNC after the Bush V. Gore decision in 2000. So what did the Obama campaign take from that lesson of 2000? Well it appears that all the cries of free and fair elections were just that, just cries. So fast forward to 2008 and now we have the Ohio Secretary of State who it seems rewrites the rules on a daily basis. The recent little stunt to allow early voting, to not persuing the many voting violations of ACORN in her state, to not allowing poll watchers during the early voting. This sort of thing is a disgusting display of partisan politics and whats ironic about all this is that if Obama does win he will call for the nation to unite behind him as the new president after cheating his way to the White House. If Obama had any integrity he would come out and condemn this blatent voter fraud and manipulation on the part of the Secretaries office. I personally don't hold out hope , that a speech on this matter by Obama will be forthcomming.
Over the summer, Ohio Republicans mailed 1 million absentee ballot applications to likely GOP voters to ensure they vote even if they don't turn out on Election Day.
Last month, Brunner said those requests would not be accepted if the applicants had not checked a box in the form that affirmed the voters were a "qualified voter."
The check box wasn't required by state law. The state's official application for an absentee ballot treats the voter's signature as sufficient.
The GOP apparently added the check box in error, creating two places for voters to affirm they are qualified. Brunner's decision means they must enter both or be rejected.
"While state law does not require a check box, the McCain-Palin campaign designed its form to require that voters check a box to affirmatively state they are qualified," Brunner said in a statement last month.
Jeff Ortega, assistant director to the secretary of state, says Brunner had to take notice of the added box.
