CLEVELAND - Newly registered voters in Ohio, an important swing state in the last presidential election, are overwhelmingly in areas that Democratic nominee John Kerry won four years ago.

Traditionally Democratic-leaning precincts are posting the highest number of new voter registrations, The Plain Dealer newspaper in Cleveland found in an analysis. One in four new voters are in the Democratic stronghold of Cuyahoga County, which includes Cleveland.

Almost 40 percent of the new voters live in precincts that heavily favored Kerry.

Early voting has started; time to reel them in.....

1. Now the trick is to get them to actually show up and vote (nt)

2. No, the trick is to get them to BE ABLE to vote when they show

up-not hours later and to not have their votes flipped or be counted for some third party candidate.

3. Now the trick is to get their votes counted after they actually show up to vote.

5. you think they would register and then not go and vote?

:crazy:

As others have noted, these registrations are probably being shredded by OH Repukes as quickly as they're filled out

6. Interesting......

I saw you on another thread the other evening acting so oddly pessimistic, in which everyone called you on it.

16. Yet the news media said that Obama's is slipping in polls

They claim a poll stated that Obama was only leading by 5
points 47 to 42..  How in the h... did Obama slip 4 to 7
points in one day...

Republicans made it seem close and it is easier to steal...

4. All of the above :-)

This is good news. I helped a precious few of them get registered last weekend.
It's a great feeling.

K & R Ohio!

7. I hope their votes do not get stolen again.

8. Now if they can only get enough voting machines to the districts it may make a difference?

9. TAKE THE DAY OFF...NOV 4... vote and help get out the vote...1 day...4 years...do the MATH

10. The GOP is busily bumping them from eligibility about as fast as the Dems are registering them

See what RFK Jr. has to say about all these newly registered Dems.

11. The DEMOCRATS Control the Election Process in Ohio

No, Republicans will not be allowed to shred Democratic registrations or fix voting machines.

12. I'll be out and about

I'll be at the polls to vote, then doing exit polling to help make sure they can't steal this state again!

13. Meh, forget Ohio, they screwed us in 2004....

We'll win Virginia. A state that's come around. Ohio should have known better from the start.

What assholes in Ohio voted in Bush?? I mean, really.

[OhioChick]

15. Rural areas in OH voted for Bush....

Why did the MSM call it for Bush when polls were still open (with lines wrapped around buildings waiting to vote) at 12 a.m. in Cuyahoga County? (The bluest of blue in OH)

Ohio was stolen....

[Pete2069]

14. It is not over until the Fat lady sings and the real votes are counted.

Every year we see our elections stolen by the criminal
policies of the republicans and every year we do nothing about
it...

17. I Love People Are Registering As Dems

and not "independents" or as we call them in CO "unaffiliated". They are not independent, they are indecisive and wishy washy. I've been doing some phone banking and gawd many of these people don't have an answer to many of the issues I bring up in a conversation. They whine and say, well I don't like either one of them. I respond by saying, why don't you register as a dem or repub next time and participate in the first process vs letting others make the choice for you. That usually shuts them up.
