GOP Voter Suppression Across the Nation (VIDEO)










"Yesterday, documents posted by Scott Keyes at TPM showed that the Romney campaign in Wisconsin is training poll-watchers to lie at polling stations by registering as "concerned citizens" rather than campaign volunteers; to untruthfully tell voters they are ineligible to vote unless they show proof of residency; and to misleadingly warn voters they are ineligible if they have been convicted of treason or bribery.

It is all intentionally dishonest, and particularly so because so much of the RNC leadership—including Chairman Reince Priebus—has roots in Wisconsin local leadership."* Cenk Uygur discusses the many instances of voter suppression that have already happened across the country-- mostly against minority and handicapped voters or areas that are heavily Democratic. Cenk breaks it all down and tells us why these attempts have gotten so egregious.
