gets downward pressure. Governor Insthhhlee just signed a measure that allows for 16 and 17 year-olds to "Pre-register" for voting ...but the names won't be added to the eligible roster until they turn 18...
How many of you think this will go off without a hitch?
Also signed: a bill which allows for registration on an election day with the ability to vote on that election.
I'm guessing election day will be pay-day in the jungles under the freeways as the homeless are solicited for their votes?
And will there be any effort to ascertain the validity of those voters in the ensuing election results?
Question: Did the lag behind registration and voting, that previously existed, serve any real purpose? i.e. were the voter registrants vetted?
