Crist: GOP may be exaggerating voter fraud
The Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Florida's governor says his fellow Republicans may be exaggerating claims of voter fraud in the state.

Gov. Charlie Crist said Wednesday that he has confidence in Secretary of State Kurt Browning, who says there's only been a scattering of isolated incidents.

Crist said in the closing days of any campaign "there are some who sort of enjoy chaos." There may be more of that going on than fraud, he said.

The Republican National Committee and GOP presidential candidate John McCain have accused an activist group of fraudulently registering people in Florida and other states. It has focused on young people, minorities and others seen as more likely to support Democrat Barack Obama.

What may be lost here is that FL claims to be pretty good at catching voter fraud. The poll workers actually catch things like the Mickey Mouse registrations, or so they say on local TV news quoting poll officials. I guess it's a bigger problem when those registrations actually get approved, as seems to be happening in other states. But I think it's a shame it happens at all no matter the reason.

Let's have some fun & pretend that an election official with the mental ability of a Sarah Palin approves a "Mickey Mouse registration."

Are you saying that when "Mickey Mouse" goes to vote, a Republican election judge is going to let "Mickey Mouse" vote?

Liberal Non-Profit Group Sending Out Pre-Filled Voter Registarion Cards To Dogs, Dead People, Non-Citizens

But . . . but . . . but . . . voter ID laws are raaaaacist!

Quote:

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) â€” The voter registration form arrived in the mail last month with some key information already filled in: Rosie Charlstonâ€™s name was complete, as was her Seattle address.

Problem is, Rosie was a black lab who died in 1998.

A group called the Voter Participation Center has touted the distribution of some 5 million registration forms in recent weeks, targeting Democratic-leaning voting blocs such as unmarried women, blacks, Latinos and young adults.

But residents and election administrators around the country also have reported a series of bizarre and questionable mailings addressed to animals, dead people, non-citizens and people already registered to vote.

Brenda Charlston wasnâ€™t the only person to get documents for her pet: A Virginia man said similar documents arrived for his dead dog, Mozart, while a woman in the state got forms for her cat, Scampers.

â€œOn a serious note, I think itâ€™s tampering with our voting system,â€ Charlston said. â€œTheyâ€™re fishing for votes: Thatâ€™s how I view it.â€
