Michigan GOP Using Foreclosures To Block Black Voters

Michigan Messenger:

The chairman of the Republican Party in Macomb County Michigan, a key swing county in a key swing state, is planning to use a list of foreclosed homes to block people from voting in the upcoming election as part of the state GOP's effort to challenge some voters on Election Day.

"We will have a list of foreclosed homes and will make sure people aren't voting from those addresses," party chairman James Carabelli told Michigan Messenger in a telephone interview earlier this week. He said the local party wanted to make sure that proper electoral procedures were followed.

The DNC had better get involved with this or we will be having another recount on our hands.

Obama campaign needs to be aware of this and take the necessary action to stop it from happening.

Repubs can't win on the issues so they have to cheat to win?

The underside of a bridge usually has no address. Unless it's nowhere, but it has a function of making up tall tales. Tale tellers should be blocked from voting, as should banks who have screwed up the American Dream.
