Dems Messing With Votes ... and the Voting Hasn't Begun!
It must be some kind of record ... vote tampering before the voting even begins.
The attorney general of Maryland - a Democrat - told the Maryland Board of Elections to declare some Republican absentee ballots invalid.
Naturally, the state Republican Party sees partisan politics afoot.
Apparently, applications for absentee ballots in Maryland must include a voter's date of birth, but the Maryland Republican Party failed to ask for that information on the applications it sent out.
The Democrat attorney general declared all GOP absentee ballots without a D.O.B. illegal.
The decision could affect a very tight gubernatorial race, where Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, a Democrat, is running against Republican Robert Ehrlich, who needs all the votes he can get in the liberal state.

Didn't they try that last week, too. And didn't a federal judge slap them down?

BS. My sister was an election judge in Chicago ( our Precinct captain was under the mistaken impression my famiy was loyal Democrat ) as a Republican judge. On election day she would routinely find hundreds of votes already registered on the machines when they went in to open up the polls.
