In all seriousness, failing to cancel a registration after you move and re-register in another place is not the world's biggest outrage against the electoral process, as long as you don't attempt to vote in both places. But if it's illegal in Arkansas, it's illegal in Arkansas, and it's kind of unseemly for someone to think they should get special treatment just because they're a candidate. Maybe more significantly, even if her registration is restored, Arkansans now have a reminder that Leslie Rutledge bears the taint of Washington, DC, and only came back to Arkansas after the 2012 election and registered to vote in 2013. And the world has a great example of how outraged Republicans are when they come on the receiving end of the treatment they routinely try to deal out to likely Democratic voters.

I'm sure Obama will be to blame for this, as he was by FAUX news for bringing ebola to this country.

The far right are ruthless.
