Think you're registered to vote? Perhaps not.
Word's arisen from Nevada, with word of operations having moved to Oregon, of a group called Voters Outreach of America, aka America Votes. They've set up stations outside of malls, grocery stores and even government buildings and provide voter registration forms for people to fill out and turn back in to them. The twist? At least two former workers who participated in operations in Las Vegas have alleged that the stacks of registration forms have been gone through, and the ones with "Democrat" chosen as party of choice are culled, ripped up and discarded. Similar complaints have come out of Reno, NV.
Please spread the alert, and if you found yourself signing up at some similar operation contact your party of choice or regional election department office for verification that you're registered. I don't know what can be done about it in states (such as mine - Pennsylvania) where the registration process is now closed, but I will not let another election fix happen without raising Hell about it. (IMHO we should have UN poll-watchers crawling over Florida this time out.) Thanks to Mark Gibson for passing along the information, and to Tammy, who made sure I'd seen it.
