We need to list all the states trying to scam voters and keep track of what is going on.

We know the Florida situation and the Purge of citizens


In PA Gov Corbertt was trying to pass a law that would mess with our electorial vote. so that it would keep votes out of Obama's hands --Looking for any updated information on that.

from last month.

http://www.aflcio.org/Blog/In-The-States/Arizona-Model-State-for-Voter-Suppression2

In 2008, working for "Rolling Stone" with civil rights attorney Bobby Kennedy, our team flew to Arizona to investigate what smelled like an electoral pogrom against
Chicano voters . . . directed by one Jan Brewer.

Brewer, then secretary of state, had organized a racially loaded purge of the voter rolls that would have made Katherine Harris blush. Beginning after the 2004 election, under Brewer's command, no fewer than 100,000 voters, overwhelmingly Hispanic, were blocked from registering to vote. In 2005, the first year of the Great Brown-Out, one in three Phoenix residents found their registration applications rejected.

would be divided based on who won each county. So since more counties vote Red more votes Repub.

I was wondering what was happening with that.
