The voter suppression drive comes into clear view

The voter suppression drive comes into clear view

"Citing a new list of more than 37,000 questionable addresses, the state Republican Party demanded Saturday that Milwaukee city officials require identification from all of those voters Tuesday.
If the city doesn't, the party says it is prepared to have volunteers challenge each individual - including thousands who might be missing an apartment number on their registration - at the polls."

Hm. Wondering how many of those are on the North Side?

Remember, it's not just the vote of the challenged voter: it's the delay, it's the people behind the challenged voter in line. It's the Election Dayequivalent of a filbuster.

And you only filibuster when you don't have the votes...
