How is voter registration going in southern states?

One article said there were huge numbers of blacks that if registered would swing some of those states. Anyone here working on that? I really think we might be able to snag a couple of southern states if we can register enough new people.

this up in hopes that someone can answer. I'd like to know too.

yet these types of posts rarely excite people and tend to sink. Making change will be 99% perspiration, which includes registering a shit load of new voters and this is our chance to register new black voters who will be excited about Obama. The Democratic party should have an army of about 1,000 or more people in each state who's job is to register new voters. We can win in the south if we can get the job done!

and the number of new registrations that are Democratic outweigh Republican registrations by a lot.

NC Voter Registration Up

Thursday, April 10 2008 by Jessica Jones | Send this to a friend Send to a friend

Over the last few weeks, political and non-partisan volunteers in North Carolina have pounded the pavement from one end of the state to the other. It’s all part of an effort to register more voters in time for the May 6th primary. Jessica Jones reports record numbers of residents have registered.


This article gave me goosebumps:

Like hundreds of others, their quests led them to the Wake County voter services office this month to register as Democrats for the first time. The line of newcomers that snaked across the checkered tile floor was emblematic of those that have formed across the country this year: black voters, young voters, lifelong Republicans switching parties -- all registering in record numbers, and all aligning as Democrats.

Here's another:

Lured by the political duel between Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton, North Carolina voters are registering to vote in the May 6 primary in record numbers.

North Carolina has netted at least 110,000 new voters so far this year, with a particularly sharp rise among unaffiliated voters, Democrats and black people, according to the State Board of Elections.



I'm not kidding, keep an eye on this state, we didn't stop registering people when the primary ended.

I hope this information about a southern state that has voted R since the 70's and is on the verge of changing that helps you! Have a good one!

They're kind of small in the bar that's under the flag.
