I have to disagree, and I support Obama. Polls are known to be inaccurate. McCain winning would definitely be an upset but I wouldn't go as far to say that those are the only two reasons that would make the difference. You never know what will have traction with voters. Perhaps the McCain campaign's attempt to tie Obama's policies to socialism will be effective.

Obama is going to win no matter what. People are talking about Mccain being to old and Palin not having the qualifications to be President. Also, a lot of people are going to vote for Obama just because he is black and they need to support their race. I even know some people that registered just to vote for him.
I don't vote in here since I am not from here and did not know the process, so I don't count.

ensberg brought up the fact that Dems tamper w/votes as well because it can't be stolen if both sides are doing it. Like he said, for every vote tampered with or prevented by Republicans, there is a vote tampered with by the Democrats. If it's equal, there's no "stealing" going on.

This is illegal. They should sue. It'd be a very easy case.
And this youngster isn't voting for Obama. I don't like socialism.

A lot of these "turnaways" that are reported in the media are people who didn't follow the proper registration procedures and now it's too late to register...so they're turned away. But the media doesn't tell us that part of it.

I'm sorry but having to have a photo ID to vote is a joke and HUGE VOTER SUPRESSION. Most of the people without license or photo ID are the elderly or younger voters. They interviewed some elderly that could not get a photo ID because they were to old and they didn't have records of their birth. I didn't have a license or a Photo ID and they are HARDER then you can imagine to get. I went to get a photo ID but needed a Social Security Card (which had been lost in a fire). I went to get a SS card and had to have a photo ID or medical records from the past 5 years(It had been over 10 years since I have seen a doctor)..
I had to get a passport(which took no ID they just took my word for it(scary), to get a SS card to get a photo ID. This is the 21st century and we are trying to spread democracy all over the world when we can not do it ourselves.

I am sick and tired of the ACORN argument. The only people getting screwed out of that deal is ACORN. Each fake registered voter cost them money. If anyone can prove that Obama will get votes out of this, I'll stand humbled, otherwise, quit complaining.

I think photo ID is the very least that should be required. Without that, there are far too many ways to vote illegally or repeatedly. It's not hard to cheat the system with photo ID, but without would make it child's play.

Asking voters to bring something that has a picture and their name on it is huge voter supression? What do you suggest?
How the heck did the people get to the voting location if they drove? They should have a license...It's so incredibly easy to go get a license...if you're an actual citizen.
