It All Adds Up

Oregon, Ohio, Nevada, Florida, Minnesota...where else? I ask you, where else?

Block the Vote (More of an overview than news. Registration may be required.):
"...a firm hired by the Republican National Committee to register voters, told a Nevada TV station that their supervisors systematically tore up Democratic registrations."
"...in 2002 the Republican Party in New Hampshire hired an Idaho company to paralyze Democratic get-out-the-vote efforts by jamming the party's phone banks."
"Whose applications get rejected? A Washington Post examination of rejected applications in Duval County [Florida -- sid] found three times as many were from Democrats, compared with Republicans. It also found a strong tilt toward rejection of blacks' registrations."


Librarian bares possible voter registration dodge (Oregon)
Company claiming affiliation with the non-partisan ‘America Votes’ group appears to represent the GOP.

Voter Registration Fraud
"The state is investigating allegations that a Portland canvasser may have destroyed completed voter registration forms. A recent report says that a man paid to register voters was instructed to only accept Republican registration forms."


Voter Fraud Charges Out West

"According to KLAS-TV, a former employee claimed hundreds, if not thousands, of Democratic registration forms were destroyed by a Sproul & Associates group called Voters Outreach of America."
"The former employee first told local Nevada reporters that he had personally witnessed his boss shredding eight to ten voter registration forms, according to Steve George, a spokesman for the Nevada Secretary of State."


In Florida, voter purges in 2000 and 2004 disenfranchise legal, lawful voters:

2004: America is Asking…About Felon Voter Purges in Florida

Voter registration cards found in car
"A former employee of an organization that registered voters kept hundreds of cards instead of submitting them."
