Turner is scum. The 'Rat-controlled junta in this state is racket rule by the minority. 45%, never forget ! Tennessee 'Rats - perpetrating fraud for 130 years and counting.

[martin_fierro]

Turner's a Democrat. Imagine my surprise.

I ahve always been against these types of scams(and that is what they are). It has nothing to do with the voting process being "fair".

Generally, there are two years between elections. If a person can not find time in over 725 days to register to vote then that person is obviously not interested in the issue or in voting and does not deserve to be a part of a decision making process that affects all(and especially those who keep up with the issues and register). I also think all voting roles should be purged after each election. Then, only the serious people will be voting.

Vote early & vote often Alert!

"Hold muh beer 'n watch this!" PING....

If you want on or off this list, please let me know!

What's the big deal? In Chicago the dead have been voting for years.

Hey mike, I'll go you one better. How about DAY AFTER ELECTION registration. It'd be sooo much easier that way. You'd know exactly how many rats to register from mental hospitals and cemetaries. It would be strange how the rats would win by one vote all of the time.

What a better way to get all of Al Gores dead relatives to vote!

I might have overlooked this, but I did not see it in the Commercial Appeal (Memphis) this morning. I will call this to the attention of my representative (who happens to be the minority leader) Tre Hargett. I am sure he will like it no better than I do, but he ought to hear it from me.

I hope any other Tennessee Freepers will also take time to write their own reps.

Dear Tre,

I just learned that Rep. Mike Turner has introduced a bill (HB0018) to allow voting registration on election day. I believe that we already have opened the door to far too many opportunities for voter fraud, and this would just blow the door off its hinges. I urge your opposition to this and any similar measures.

Thank you.

I'm against this bill completely, and it just infruiates me that above & beyond the stupidity of same day registration they blatently left out a requirement for proof of citizenship! Any non-citizen, legal or not can get a driver's license and have proof of residence. We all know that people working at elections are often not trained to perform simple election procedures - now they pile this on top of it!

Write, FAX or Email Mike Turner and your representative right away. This bill is NUTS! He's my Representative (the Republican that ran against him didn't do much to try to beat him). Mike voted against the income tax, but now he's lost his mind. There are a lot of Hispanics that have moved into the Old Hickory / Lakewood area, so I guess he's pandering to them.

Bump.

[Kuksool]

Hopefully honest TN folks will create as much public outrage on same day election registration as you guys did on the state income tax issue. Perhaps TN Freepers ought send this article to Nashville talk show host Phil Valentine. If the insane bill passes, could it be repealed through a voter referendum like the lottery? Same day voter registration was soundly defeated last year by the voters in liberal CA. Thus, opposition to same day voter registration is a position that is maintstream, and not racist.

[Kuksool]

MN has same day voter registration for many years. Below is a link to an article that shows the loopholes that the 'RATS will use to steal elections.

I expected to read that the legislator who introduced this was a member of the Ford family, and resided in Memphis.
