If a clerk's typo causes a constituent to not be able to vote, that voter should be able to sue the county. That would change the onus of who's at fault quickly. Maybe there should be an online application that a constituent fills out at the clerk's office, a clerk verifies the form's info. (name, address, etc.) against the constituent's license, bills, rent or mortgage lease, etc. They both sign off on it like we do at the grocery store with a digital signature. There, problem solved.

Do you think McCain cares about the average American? – Think again! In 26 years John McCain voted against increasing the minimum wage 18 times.<br>In the same 26 years he voted for tax breaks for the wealthiest 2% of America 27 times. Why should that matter to you? McCain believes in a trickle down economy. You know if the wealthy get wealthier they will share with you. Obama believes in a trickle up economy, higher salaries for workingmen and women. When they earn more money they are able buy or keep homes, resulting in more employment in building trades. They buy clothes for their children, resulting in more Wal-Mart and GAP jobs. They will purchase new trucks and cars that will keep auto workers employed. Now what is better for this nation a trickle down economy or a trickle up economy? This republican is voting for Obama because we have tried a trickle down economy for eight years and look where this nation is now! Could it get any worse with Obama/Biden? <br>The old John McCain before he developed Alzheimer’s: <br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHoXkCprdL4">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHoXkCprdL4</a> This is something you need to think about if you are planning to vote for the McCain/Palin ticket.
