GOP's felon list may be way off

The list of alleged felon voters compiled in Dino Rossi's legal challenge to the governor's election mistakenly includes people tried as juveniles who never lost their right to vote.

A spokeswoman for Rossi acknowledged last night that perhaps hundreds of the 1,135 people on the list are there improperly because of juvenile cases.
...
"They should scrub their list for other errors," said attorney Jenny Durkan, a lawyer for the Democrats. "This is a huge error."

Durkan said Republican attorneys should apologize to the people erroneously listed as voting illegally and amend the list "so these people's names never have to go into an official court file."

I'm not holding my breath while I wait for Repukes to apologize to those people.

Are you?

... better than KSOTO Award (Keen Sense of The Obvious). :hi:

through the mud sue? There's a tort in there somewhere.

Those responsible should be investigated for criminal charges if they used this list with the knowlege that it contained ANY inaccuracy.

were some of those barred from voting only juvenile offenders?

suck it chris vance - you are going to lose, and in the process you will tarnish dino rossi's "good" name when he tries to unseat cantwell in 06.

die washington state GOP die

isn't revealing the names of juvenile defendants illegal?

They want to be able to fry juveniles so they must also believe they can stop them from voting as adults if they don't succeed at that. The less voters the better.

posting, this is great news. so it looks like the repugs wanted to kick people off for juvie crimes, wonder how many folks got denied in fla, and ohio for the same thing hmmmm! keep digging mr. rossi, the truth is out there.

but I'm just a cynic. Never mind me......

:kick:

Once you've out of prison , you should be allowed to vote. And i don't care if you're on parole or probation or if you committed murder.
