I wouldn't be so sure now that Romney picked Ryan for veep. Rigging can only carry you so far when you threaten Medicare.
"US approves giving Fla. access to list of noncitizens" by Charles Babington | Associated Press, July 15, 2012
WASHINGTON — In a victory for Republicans, the federal government has agreed to let Florida use a law enforcement database to challenge people’s right to vote if they are suspected of not being US citizens.

It will be much harder now.
The agreement, made in a letter to Governor Rick Scott’s administration, grants the state access to a list of resident noncitizens maintained by the Department of Homeland Security. The Obama administration had denied Florida’s request for months, but relented after a judge ruled in the state’s favor in a related voter-purge matter.
Voting rights groups, while acknowledging that noncitizens have no right to vote, have expressed alarm about using such data for a purpose not originally intended: purging voter lists of ineligible people. They say voter purges less than four months before a presidential election might leave insufficient time to correct mistakes stemming from faulty data or other problems.
Yeah, remember when they told you all the tyranny was going to only be for catching terrorists?
I never believed them right from the get-go even if it took me a few years to figure out 9/11 was a false flag job.
Democrats say that the government’s concession is less troubling than some GOP-
controlled states’ push to require voters to show photo identification.
But Republicans count it as a victory in their broad-based fight over voter eligibility, an issue that could play a big role in the White House race. That is especially true in pivotal states such as Florida, Colorado, Nevada, and North Carolina.
Republican officials in several states say they are trying to combat voter fraud. Democrats, however, point out that proven cases of voter fraud are rare. They accuse Republicans of cynical efforts to suppress voting by people in lower socioeconomic groups who tend to vote Democratic....
Yes, that is part of it; however, all this political back-and-forth means nothing to me when I already discount and dismiss the integrity of our voting process.
Yes, I would like an honest result, even in the corporate-selected corporate executive (presidential) race. But we are so far from that in AmeriKa, what with the rigged machines and all the other dirty tricks and frauds.
