I hope that fraud of a Secretary of State has many sleepless nights now.

Making a mockery of our election system is anti-American.

Shame on Democrats and Independents who turn a blind eye to ACORN and other groups perpetuating a fraud on our election process. They're turing America into a Banana republic.

We may need to call in U.N. inspectors to ensure a fair election takes place. Really sad. Pathetically so.

And anyone who dishonestly claims both parties are involved in this fraud, is only fooling themselves to the highest degree.

Shame on Democrats who support their actions in order to win.

Shame on Barack Obama and his supporters who have said or done nothing to condemn ACORN. Shame on witnessing them quietly accepting fraud on a massive scale.

If Obama is elected with this level of massive fraud, with no voices from the Obama camp condemning it on SI, I will personally start impeachment threads all over SI and the web on day one of an Obama administration.

Their silence is deafening!

Ohio Jennifer Brunner will ignore the court as long as she can. My suspicion is that she will be successful in dragging her feet quite a while.

Temporary restraining order reimposed in Ohio voting scandal
Clarice Feldman

It looks like ACORN and the Ohio Secretary of State will not be able to guarantee a fixed election after all. The Darke Blog explains:

[a] 3-judge panel of the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals recently vacated a temporary restraining order which would effectively make Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner follow the law - and do her job - in preventing election fraud. Tonight, the full court decided to hear the case en banc, and has reimposed the TRO. This is great news.

Here are some highlights:

"So far as this record is concerned, the Secretary has given no tenable exlanation why her current interpretation of the statute, as opposed to the office's prior implementation of the law, remotely furthers the anti-fraud objective of the law."

The Ohio Republican Party's position is "not only sensible but it is also fair - and it also furthers both objectives of HAVA ..."

The court mocks Brunner's defense as "[t]he bureaucrats' lament - that this will be difficult to do."

UPDATE: In looking at the decision, it appears the full court voted 9-6 to hear the case en banc (which means all of them). I'd say the 9-6 vote is a good sign, but doesn't necessarily mean the case will end that way. Tonight's decision has been described as the opportunity to "live and fight another day." But in the world of temporary restraining orders, if you have it, that's all that matters for the time being. And the time being is what is crucial right now.
