Monday, June 28, 2004 Michael Moore Caught With Multiple Election Registrations
The Smoking Gun reveals that Michael Moore is registered to vote in two states: New York and Michigan.
Although he has claimed to be an "independent” and not a Democrat, records from the New York City Board of Elections show that in reality he registered as a Democrat, the Web site reported.
"Now here's the good part: Moore is simultaneously registered to vote in Michigan, where registrants aren't even given the option of party affiliation (so he's not an Independent there either)."
And there's more: "as a New York City voter, TSG can tell you it's hard not to realize you are registered, since a voter's mailbox is regularly bombarded with candidate mail, official voter guides, and Board of Election notices about upcoming elections and reminders about the location of your polling place." -0-
This was written by correspondent Carl Limbacher, who I have known as a respected reporter in the past. I cannot believe he would post such a story without doing research. The fact that a person is registered in two states is not unusual at all. When you change residences, and register to vote in the new state, you are NOT required to DE-register in the old state. The old state will automatically drop you from their rolls after you have not shown up for a number of general elections...local, state and federal.
