People could have problems voting in Orlando
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/services/newspaper/printedition/friday/orl-acorn1008oct10,0,2374500.story

<snip>
Orange County Senior Deputy Elections Supervisor Linda Tanko said "hundreds" of applications submitted by ACORN had problems. She said those included incomplete applications, unmatching signatures, incorrect addresses and duplicate applications. One person had 21 voter-registration forms filed for him from ACORN.

Some of the problems could keep people from voting on Election Day, Tanko said.

FUCKING BASTARDS. We've known all along that this has been the rethug goal, to disenfranchise as many people as possible, and here's proof that they're using this whole blown-up ACORN story to accomplish some of that goal.

1. "Filed for him"...
ACORN is required by law to turn in all voter registrations..regardless of if they are bogus or not. Think about it...Why would anyone think that these could possibly go through? What is to gain? Certainly not any votes.

2. I would be taking a very close look at the guy that
claims there were 21 applications filed for him. Some people will do some strange things to make others look bad.
