Presidential election is less than a month away and fraudulent voter registration is a disaster waiting to happen. Six swing states have reported thousands of voters have
been blocked from registering. Meanwhile, there are major concerns that non-citizens will vote illegally this year.
We’ll have full coverage on the tactics used by special interest groups to push people to the polls and the overall lack of confidence in the voter registration system in this country. Plus:
* It appears Washington’s efforts to shore up our economy are not working as well as planned. The $700 billion bailout to buy toxic debt has come under scrutiny. The Treasury Department now says it is considering buying stock in shaky financial
institutions. We’ll have the latest details and a look at how much more money this could cost American taxpayers.
* The community activist group ACORN has faced its share of accusations, investigations and even convictions. Five states have opened investigations into the legality of its voter registration drives. And, some of ACORN’s employees have
actually been convicted of voter fraud. We’ll dig into the history and practices of this supposed non-partisan organization.
* Some states are having major problems with the early voting.
Activists groups are already predicting which states will face
voting problems on Election Day. South Carolina had two days of
breakdowns in early voting this week and had to scramble to put
in enough paper ballots. And states like Virginia, a key
battleground state, have high voter to voting machine ratios
that will generate long lines if there is a breakdown.
