Public groups should not be responsible for registering voters.
ACORN reports names that they question.
By law, ACORN is required to turn in all names,
even ones they question, so they can be verified.
But there is a much bigger problem.

A Mighty Hoax from ACORN Grows - By Michael Winship

What’s equally if not more scary are continued allegations of Republican attempts at “caging” minority voters – making challenge lists of African- And Hispanic-Americans registered in heavily Democratic districts. Just this week, a Federal judge in Michigan ruled that voters could not be purged from the rolls in that state simply because their mailing address was invalid – this followed a failed attempt by a Michigan Republican county chairman to use a list of foreclosed homes as the basis of voter challenges.
This comes on the heels of a recent report from the Brennan Center at New York University documenting how state officials -- often with the best of intentions -- purge huge numbers of perfectly legal voters from the rolls.

As my colleague Bill Moyers reported, “Hundreds of thousands of legal voters may have been dumped in recent years, many without ever being notified.” The report describes a "process that is shrouded in secrecy, prone to error, and vulnerable to manipulation."

Our government should maintain a retina scan ID database
so all branches of government could verify who
is registering and who is voting. No more problem.

Wasn't Princess the dead goldfish a Republican? There went another Republican vote down the drain......a common occurrence it seems.
