How are those welfare people going to be expected to get up and out of bed before the polls close?

Obama DESPERATELY needs to win Ohio.

If that means they cheat to get it, so be it.

[onedoug]

democrats think blacks are stupid and can’t think for themselves. Of those who reflexively vote democrat, I believe they’re right.

[NativeSon]

I do not understand why some people are not expected to get to the pols on time and others must.

If it's the "poor people" argument, don't they have lots of free time?

Some Democrat leaders in Ohio are alarmed by the recent decision by Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted to deep-six extended hours and weekend early voting for the period leading to the November general election.

I guess the entire nation must have been under Jim Crow until the mid 1990's, because this early voting / extended voting hours crap has only been around about 15 years.

I have a plan for a new voters law."You must own or drive a car to vote, I guess that means you need a drivers license and guess what they come with a picture./sarc

Until a very short time ago, in Ohio you had to either vote on election day or request an absentee ballot to vote by mail if you were going to be out of your home country or otherwise unable to vote in person on election day. Maybe we should just go back to that.

I actually agree that that the inner-city polls should stay open later. I mean all those inner-city Democrat voters working on the Democrat plantation, well, that's some long, hard hours! They need the extra time to get to the polls after they quit hoeing the Democrat fields at sundown.

Slaves working the fields with Democrat Bull Conner as slave master.

I think all this extra time is ridiculous. In the “olden days”, everyone voted on the same day - 1st Tuesday in November - and I would venture a guess that the percentage of people voting was a whole lot higher than it is now. The second time I voted eight of us went to the polling place riding on our neighbor’s tractor because the snow was too deep for our car, and this was in Kansas.
