As usual

It has started...and just as I predicted, the Republicans are behind the effort to turn away voters.

U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens has allowed Republicans to challenge voter qualifications at the polls in Ohio, a key battleground state that could determine the presidential election. Stevens acted on an emergency request shortly before polls opened in Ohio and across the nation. He refused to set aside a U.S. appeals court order that allowed political parties to send challengers to polling places across the state. Republicans have been planning to make major use of the challengers in what they call an effort to combat "voter fraud", which is in truth, a very real effort to intimidate black voters.
