GOP registration collector arrested
Published: Oct. 19, 2008 at 11:00 PM

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 19 (UPI) -- The owner of a firm hired to register thousands of Republican voters in California has been arrested in Canada for alleged registration fraud, officials said.

The Los Angeles Times reported Sunday that Mark Jacoby was arrested in Ontario by Canadian and California investigators late Saturday. California and local investigators charge that Jacoby fraudulently registered himself to vote at a childhood California home, but doesn't live there any longer. They allege he registered fraudulently so he could meet the requirement that signature gatherers be registered in California, the Times said.

The California Republican Party had hired Jacoby's firm, Young Political Majors, to register new GOP voters in the state.

Is that onerous? Seems those who really care to vote can get it done, I should think. If they decide to care too late, it's a lesson to them they'll not forget, no? That'd be much the same as deciding you care to vote after the vote has been counted.

Too Late! Isn't life tough?
