The Right to Vote

Posted on 21 September 2008

Voting season is rounding the corner and with this year’s election coming up, everyone and I mean EVERYONE is looking for their chance to vote. The past eight years have been a reality check for those non-voting Americans. Whether you are pro or anti Bush, it has become very clear that we all need to use the great privilege of having the right to vote. And that is why voting rights litigations are becoming an ongoing legal issue around the entire country.

Challenges attacking state restrictions on voter registration, purging of voter rolls and identification requirements are reaching the surface. Already in Florida (yeah, shocker, I know), Georgia, Michigan, Nex Mexico and Wisconsin, lawyers are set to “resolve or enjoin lingering disputes over voter registration checks mandated in the Help America Vote Act of 2002 or address a host of other claims,” stated the National Law Journal.

What more can I say…when it’s on, it’s on and voters are pulling up their sleeves and making damn sure they cash in this time!
