My Latest at Pajamas Media: Action to protect integrity of voter rolls.
"As the saying goes: if you want a job done right, you have to do it yourself. If Americans don’t want dead and ineligible felons participating in elections, they will have to clean up the mess themselves, as Attorney General Eric Holder won’t do his job by enforcing the integrity protections in the “Motor Voter” law passed in 1993. . . .
Motor Voter struck an important balance — it sought to increase voter registration, as well as ensure voter integrity. Welfare offices and motor vehicle offices became voter registration centers. But the law also required states to conduct list maintenance to ensure ineligible names don’t pollute the voting rolls. Dead people, ineligible felons, and people who moved away must be removed from the rolls by state election officials.
The attorney general was given the power to enforce both provisions of Motor Voter, yet Eric Holder is only interested in enforcing one. This attorney general simply won’t do his job and enforce the list integrity requirements.
During the Bush administration, the Justice Department enforced both Section 7 (the welfare office registration provisions) as well as Section 8 (the list integrity provisions). Section 7 cases were investigated and brought against multiple states, including Illinois and Arizona. Section 8 cases were investigated and brought against multiple states, like Missouri and Maine.
The decision of the Holder DOJ to ignore the integrity provisions of Section 8 is deliberate and corrupt. In November 2009, political appointee Julie Fernandes told the entire assembled DOJ Voting Section that the Obama administration would not enforce the list maintenance provisions of Section 8. Section 8 “doesn’t have anything to do with increasing minority turnout,” Fernandes said. “We don’t have any interest in enforcing that part of the law.” End of story.
At the same time, Fernandes stressed that the DOJ would vigorously enforce the welfare agency registration provisions of Section 7."

I live in MA and we have a Sec State (Bill Galvin) who would rather see illegal aliens voting than members of the military service. He is being challenged in Nov. by Republican Bill Campbell.
By the way, if you need any help in MA for these public suits, please sign me up.

Bill Galvin Secretary of State for MA should be indicted for the obstruction of military votes. It would really be interesting to see if he is doing anything relative to sec. 8 of the motor-voter act. How can I help?

This idea should be 'crowd sourced'. If you would supply us with the relevant documents to submit and the generic (specific?) actions to move forward this private action it would do great things to maknig our democracy believable. With hidden video, FOIA and Open Government requests we could "organize" our democracy again. If you helped select organizers for every state who could organize the precincts who could report back...good stuff!!!

I am outraged over the voting fraud that is being allowed by this administration. We need to speak out LOUDLY AND OFTEN!
Our nation will be forever run by tyrants if this situation is not corrected. I've ofter thought the goal of leftist was to have a rotating group of people to go from country to country to disrupt/slant elections. And the lack of cooperation among officials to allow our military to vote angers me to not end!!!!!!!
