Okay, we have Florida, where they throw your ass off the voting rolls for having the same name as someone who was once arrested.

Texas, where with the help of Bush political appointees, they pushed through a redistricting program knowing it was illegal.

Georgia went straight for the unconstitutional poll tax, again with the collusion of the Bush regime. Had the nerve to complain about still being reviewed under the Voting Rights Act when the courts ruled as independently as Bush claims he wants them to.

With Alabama refusing to repeal certain Civil War sentiments from the state constitution, I thought they'd be next. But Ohio's democratic tradition is the next to go under, if Republicans have their way.

HB3's most publicized provision will require positive identification before casting a vote. But it also opens voter registration activists to partisan prosecution, exempts electronic voting machines from public scrutiny, quintuples the cost of citizen-requested statewide recounts and makes it illegal to challenge a presidential vote count or, indeed, any federal election result in Ohio. When added to the recently passed HB1, which allows campaign financing to be dominated by the wealthy and by corporations, and along with a Rovian wish list of GOP attacks on the ballot box, democracy in Ohio could be all but over.

The GOP is ramming similar bills through state legislatures around the US, starting with Georgia and Indiana. The ID requirements in particular have provoked widespread opposition from newspapers such as the New York Times. The Times, among others, argues that the ID requirements and the costs associated with them, constitute an unconstitutional discriminatory poll tax.

But despite significant court challenges, the Republicans are forcing changes in long-standing election laws that have allowed citizens to vote based on their signature alone. Across the US, GOP Jim Crow laws will eliminate millions of Democratic voters from the registration rolls. In swing states like Ohio, such ballots are almost certain to be crucial.

Understand...this is known to be unconstitutional. Which means these bastards have no regard for the law.

Now what would you call a national plot to undermine the Constitution? Treason? Is a coup treason if you take over the country instead of attacking it? It should be...
