I was just listening to a broadcast of a Canadian Broadcasting Company feature on a voter-registration group called "America Votes."
America Votes is a group (supported by Democratic-party aligned folks) who supports -non corrupt- voter registration drives.
Now here is where it gets interesting...
In certain "swing" states, an entity referring to itself as "America Votes" (albeit falsely) has been holding registration drives, yet has been discarding registrations of registrants who claim to be "Democrats."
The catch is that this false America Votes is actually an arm of "Sprewell and Associates," which is connected (via funding and other means) to both the Republican National Committee and the Christian Coalition.
Now... I wonder whether this will be covered in the United States.
Secondly, I wonder whether this will be defended as "fair."
Thirdly, I wonder whether there will be examples of these (or similar) tactics committed by groups associated with the Democratic party.
Lastly, a comment. A haze of illegitimacy in an election tends to favor the incumbent, does it not?
It seems awfully dirty to me, and the Republican party would certainly find it in their interest to wash their hands of this, if in fact it is actually covered somewhere domestically.
