Something is wrong in America. The stories continue to come out about our military troops being denied their right to vote and cities not enforcing the MOVE Act. The Department of Justice just sued New York <http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/10/after_accusations_of_lax_enforcement_doj_sues_new.php>for not issuing voting ballots to overseas military personnel in a timely manner but only did so after accusations of lax enforcement. Some believe this is being done because military personnel tend to vote conservative. Some find it perfectly acceptable to deny the troops defending our country their right to vote while bending over backwards to make sure prisoners get their ballots. BigGovernment.com <http://biggovernment.com/capitolconfidential/2010/10/19/illinois-soldiers-wait-for-ballots-prisoners-get-hand-delivery/> reports: *Over 35 counties in Illinois missed the deadline to mail military ballots to our soldiers defending America. But in Chicago, county election officials have taken special steps to ensure that no inmates at the Cook County Jail are unable to cast a ballot.* *The Chicago Board of Elections hand delivers ballots to the jail. They don’t even wait for the inmates to apply – they bring the applications with the ballots! Over 2,600 inmates have cast ballots so far – strikingly similiar to the 2,600 soldiers who will likely not recieve a ballot for the Nov 2 election.* Disgraceful does not begin to describe the Illinois Election system. Notice this is happening in cities controlled by liberal Democrats? // Add a comment to this post<http://scottystarnes.wordpress.com/2010/10/20/illinois-soldiers-wait-for-ballots-prisoners-get-hand-delivery/#respond> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gofacebook/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gotwitter/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/12144/> [image: WordPress] WordPress.com <http://wordpress.com/> | Thanks for flying with WordPress!
