Confirm/deny my impression of vote fraud
In areas where a Dem is in charge, the Republicans are crying vote fraud, and trumping up false registration charges.

In areas where a Repub is in charge, they ARE the vote fraud.

Listening to Mark Belling go after the Dem mayor in Milwaukee scared me. He kept badgering the Dem mayor, saying he wasn't getting any reply by the election commission official. The Dem mayor continually answered that he pledged that to the best of his ability he will fight both voter fraud and voter suppression coming from EITHER side.

Mark took up the "voter suppression" phrase and suggested that meant that bogus people would show up to vote on false registrations on the DEM side, implying that only the DEMS are cheating.

He was saying that there will be Republicans at the polls on Nov. 2 challenging voters. Isn't that illegal? If people think they're going to be harrassed, won't they stay home? And who are they going to harrass, everyone? How will they know who voted Dem or Repub? He was saying it was going to be chaos in every battleground state. Republican-caused chaos, I reckon. All in the name of voter accuracy.

No matter what, if Kerry wins, they will shout "FRAUD." Aaack.

1. I would guess it is illegal to challenge voters

it would be harrassment. The only ones who can challenge a vote would be the poll workers if they think the person isn't registered.
