The New York Times has an editorial about making votes count in the November election. It cites, as a success, the New Voter Project (mentioned in a previous post) and their strong work in Wisconsin where they claim to have already registered more than 122,000 new, young voters! No mention of the fact that the vast majority of registrations are incomplete - most lacking any ID. 'That's not the issue. We just need to make sure the voter registration books are filled with potential names for our people - I mean - young people to vote!'
UPDATE: But then again, you don't want them voting for just anybody. The Dems in WI found a "willing" judge to throw Nader off the ballot on a minor technicality. Ah, democracy at work!

This really speaks of ignorance. Every poll shows the head to head (without Nader) Bush is around 6 points ahead of Kerry in Wisconsin, but if you look at Bush, Kerry, or Nader, then it is a much tighter race with Bush and Kerry tied.
This happens in almost every state, yet it is the Democrats who are filing suits across the country trying to keep Nader out of the election.
