The AP reports this. It must be worse than this because the AP is in The Tank for barky.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Democrat Barack Obama’s presidential campaign blitzed bars and advocates for the homeless have lined up vans to ferry potential voters from shelters.
The prize could be thousands of traditionally elusive voters in hard-fought Ohio who would have the chance to register and vote on the same day — if the courts don’t intervene.
One-stop voting, scheduled for Tuesday through Oct. 6, would be especially convenient for those Democratic-leaning voters who have traditionally had trouble getting to the polls. It’s a reality not lost on two parties locked in a tight race four years after President Bush’s 118,000-vote victory in Ohio gave him a second term.
“The populations that we focus on, the lower income and minority populations, move more often,” said Teresa James, an attorney working in northeast Ohio for Project Vote, which pushes for greater voting participation. “They’re also more likely to have jobs that aren’t flexible in terms of voting.”
Ohio is one of more than 30 states that allow voters to cast an early ballot. Eight states allow voters to register and vote on Election Day, Nov. 4, while North Carolina allows the practice during early voting.
Like ACORN says “Vote Early Vote Often”.
“They’re also more likely to have jobs that aren’t flexible in terms of voting.”
since when do pan-handlers keep bankers hours?
The first thing you learn in Communty Organizer School is how to hustle the winos.
Mary you are out of hand.

Does anyone remember Rashneesh Puhram? The Bagwan? He was the cult leader who moved to eastern Oregon back in ’80s, who took control of the local city council by bussing homeless and substance abusers to that berg to vote in local elections. He eventually changed the name of the town (Antelope) and he and his right hand hatchet woman, Ma Anand Sheela, were arrested and idicted for attempting to murder local politicians and office holders by contaminating a local restaurant’s salad bar.
If bo and his hatchets would only swap their blue suits for red clothing, we would be able to see them for who they really are. For those of you in close states, please contact your Attorney General and Election Commissions and find out what is lawful in your state. Then, if you are concerned about this happening in your city/state, join the campaign of the candidates you support and go get out the early vote for them.

They did this for the caucuses, not surprising they would do it again. Ironically, the caucus system is more restrictive and IMO less representative and democratic and now he wants to “enfranchise” more voters.
Hi Scott,
I’m not sure what “out of hand” means, but it’s making me laugh. anyway.
I’m beginning to think that rigging every election he’s in is really an instinct for Barky, the way a dung beetle knows how to roll the stuff.
Hey, hey raGing
“since when do pan-handlers keep bankers hours?” LOL
And if things keep going they way they are, we’ll soon be asking, Since when do bankers keep pan-handlers hours?
Mary “out of hand” = “out of control” = “too funny”
It’s like saying your a nut job but in a GOOD way, you make me laugh too.
“Good nut job.” Mary can dig it. Hats off to those winos.
