Fla. Official Pitches Election Law Changes

Fla. Official Pitches Election Law Changes

"The Florida secretary of state's office Wednesday proposed changing election law to give voters more privacy at polling sites and give those who cast provisional ballots a week, instead of two days, to prove their eligibility."


Oh, could we have used that! And HERE'S something I could REALLY use:

Sen. Clinton Pushes for Voting Holiday

"Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a possible White House candidate in 2008, joined 2004 nominee John Kerry and other Democrats Thursday in urging that Election Day be made a federal holiday to encourage voting. She also pushed for legislation that would allow all ex-felons to vote."

Thanks, Hillary, but somehow I doubt I'LL be getting the day off...
