Additional news from Ohio. The Dems have decided not to file an appeal to the Ohio ruling so the provisional issue is dead here.
RE: your tagline, Real conservatives are not electable.... much to our dismay!
No it's not dead there, nor is it dead anywhere.
That's only if they are in the wrong precinct.
People can still claim they are somebody in that precinct, without ID, they can still cast a provisional ballot in someone else's name.

The Provisional-Vote Scam: How Dems Will try to hijack the election and could succeed
Hey, I am voting for W so what do you expect.... ;o)
"The U.S. Census Bureau's 2003 estimate is that in Franklin County -- Columbus -- there are approximately 815,000 people 18 or over. But 845,720 are now registered."
Unless the Pubbies grow some it'll only get worse. Florida 2000 (and elsewhere) was only a grande rehearsal.
Josh, please inform yourself prior to making broad based claims.
This issue is dead here in Ohio.
This exceprt from the Columbus Dispatch.
"A three-judge panel of the 6 th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals late Saturday ruled those ballots won’t count unless they are cast in the proper precinct, reversing a lowercourt ruling against Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell."
The rest of the article is here.

In my precinct in Ohio and I assume all others you are forced to sign your name and the signatures are cross checked with a previous one right there when you get your ballot. If you claim to be someone else and the signature doesn't match you are asked to provide additional ID.
It will be revived from the dead Nov. 3rd.
That's for the wrong precinct.
Maybe that's just Ohio.. but here in PA (under the same rules as the federal law passed) If you are in the "right" precinct, without your ID.. Your vote is a provisonal ballot.
,
And here in Ohio youre signature is matched against a previous one.
So if the signatures don't match it's no ballot for you.
And dead in Michigan.
USSC doesn't want to get into election crap this year - hence the off the cuff shot across the bow by Breyer (posted last night). He is basically saying he may not vote in their favor if it comes up again.
For NEWLY REGISTERED VOTERS, It doesn't matter.. and that's most of what the Dims have..
Newly Registered Voters without ID, get a provisional ballot.
They could have 10,000 Jim Finkleheimermiller's registered, claim they are homeless, and vote Kerry without any ID.
When GOP moves to throw them out.. Dems scream disenfranchisment and start race riots in Cincinnati and Cleveland.
No, they can't.
If asked for proof of ID in Ohio, you have to present it.
Does that name ring any bells, people? Holy moley. It should be blanging like station during a 5-alarm fire.
You are in PA, right?
Let us Ohioans explain the law in Ohio.
Josh, when a new voter registers they have to sign the form.
That signature is matched. The same person that signed the form will have to show up and sign for the ballot in order for the signatures to match.
Don't you think the election officials will notice the same guy coming back time after time and signing different names?
Since when does being dead stop vote fraud? Heck, I thought it was a pre-requisite.
