What's even more alarming, the attorney claims, is that despite congressional mandates passed in 2009 to ensure military personnel overseas can participate in elections, the DOJ's Voting Section is ignoring the new laws and may allow thousands of ballots to slip through the cracks uncounted in November.
M. Eric Eversole is a former litigation attorney for the Voting Section of the U.S. Department of Justice and an advocate for military voters. In an opinion piece in The Washington Times, Eversole explains how soldiers in the field may be disenfranchised in the 2010 election.
"Absentee ballots must be sent to overseas military voters at least 45 days before an election to give those voters sufficient time to receive and return their ballots," Eversole explains. "The Military Postal Service Agency goes one step further and recommends that absentee ballots be sent to war zones 60 days before an election."
But legal complaints, news stories and studies all showed dozens of states failing to give soldiers enough time to vote in the 2008 election – resulting in tens of thousands of soldiers' mailed ballots that arrived too late to be counted, perhaps enough to swing, for example, Minnesota's closely contested election of Democrat Senator Al Franken.
It is way passed time to take up ARMS against the Obama Regime, Wake Up America we are under seige.
ReplyDeleteThis is dispicable-the deadbeat who contributes nothing to society has his unearned vote heard, but the people who put their lives on the line to give him that right have their votes ignored. Does that offend anybody else as bad as it does me? Anybody who is naive enough to think the 2010 election will not be tampered with is a fool. That is when the armed conflict to stop the seige will begin. I just hope and pray the military is on our side when it happens.
ReplyDeleteTalk about stolen elections, these turkeys who won't serve in the military are the very ones who are taking away our military's right to vote. Thank God some reputable folks are coming out and letting the public know for certain what we have thought all along. I never thought Obama won the election...I've always thought he stole it!! Think about it,the young men and women who are willing to fight for their country are the very ones whose votes don't get counted!!
