Re: Dems sue to block Michigan GOP from challenging voters who lost homes

So the only thing supporting this is a statement supposedly overheard by "Eartha Jane Melzer," "a 1997 graduate of Antioch College with a degree in cross-cultural communications."

Who writes for a blog.

That has this as their mission statement:

Quote:
Michigan Messenger is an independently-produced political news daily featuring original and investigative reporting, which is part of the Center for Independent Media (CIM).

As a coalition of long-time progressive bloggers, freelance writers and professional journalists, our aim is to enhance and expand the political dialog in Michigan. By combining the immediacy of blogging with time-honored journalistic inquiry, Michigan Messenger intends to provide a platform for overlooked stories, policy and campaign analysis, and unique local perspectives on the important issues of the day.
Sounds reliable to me.

Re: Dems sue to block Michigan GOP from challenging voters who lost homes

Given that there is no way to confirm this as of yet given that it's basically - their word against their word.
Let's just assume for the time being that it is true.
Hell make it be about democrats attempting to disenfranchise voters if that makes you feel better about yourself and the party you support.

What they do you say about such an action?
Should people who do not have permanent addresses as they were foreclosed on then be stripped of voting rights because it would be considered invalid proof of identity?

I believe states decide criteria for voting. Here you just have to have some valid form of ID or your voter card.

I can't imagine that people don't get a vote. At worst they must vote in another district because you vote for more than just president, there are other candidates in your region and it wouldn't make sense for a person from a different district to vote for a candidate in another when they don't live in the district. I don't know how such things are handeled, do you?
