1. I'm not watching news right now, but most stories I've seen on this on
our lameass media emphasize Repub charges against Dems at least as much as the obvious demonstrable Repub frauds and vote suppressions.

2. Me either.....
Not for a while anyway. No matter what channel you watch, you get so much spin. I just can't handle the news for a while. Anything I get will come from DU, Leno or Conan. I need a TeeVee break. :crazy:

4. Repub charges are ridiculous
How come I've seen tons of documented evidence and articles on disenfranchisement of blacks, democrats, etc.

But never anything about repub disenfranchisement unless it's some RW pundit mouthing some lame, unsupported charges against Dems.

The NAACP on now talking about tens of thousands of voter complaints this election. Funny how you hear all these complaints coming almost exclusively from the democratic areas.

3. Please tell us more?
many of us refuse to turn the TV on anymore, but it's still good to find out what's going on out there.

6. Barbara Arnwine talked of how
Edited on Thu Nov-04-04 11:41 PM by nebula
many voters in black areas received fake, official looking flyers in the mail falsely informing them they may vote on Tuesday OR Wednesday, that they may not vote if they OR any member of their family has been convicted of a crime, etc(!)

The NAACP rep mentioned how the head of Diebold promised to deliver Ohio electoral votes to Bush, and that millions of blacks are still being disenfranchised at the ballot box, etc. He sounds really pissed! Several civil rights leaders are also speaking more openly, frankly about these issues.

The NAACP needs to keep up the noise! It's good to hear someone on TV finally begin to break the silence.

7. There are no masses of people voting fraudulently.
THAT'S A GOP LIE!

However, there ARE masses of people who have been illegaly disenfranchised because of this lie.
