Dear AS: I suggest you study your politics some more. If a Republican gets elected in Kentucky as govenor it will be the first time in 30 YEARS. Similar in Mississippi only they had ONE Republican. I hardly call that GOP states but then thats why the Dems lose Nationally, they have NO IDEA what goes on south of the Mason Dixon line. jdn

They are not "GOP states". You have your facts wrong. Again.

denying 57,700 and 97,000 mostly minority democrats the right to vote

Felons don't have the right to vote. People don't have the right to vote in more than one state. State officials have a responsibility to ensure that the rules are followed. The only thing you have posted about the issue of voters not being allowed to vote was so riddled with factual inaccuracies that it was worthless.
