Miami Dade Again Shuts Down in Person Absentee Balloting.

Even though Ohio is giving it a run for its money, Florida is doing
whatever it can to be the next Florida.
My prediction is that FL beats OH in the Election Incompetency Bowl,
broadcast live tomorrow (all stations).
A national embarassment.

Unfortunately, there's lots of problems to talk about.

"McCain Strategist Admits Voter Fraud 'Doesn't Really Exist'"
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43393>
Posted on November 5, 2012 9:36 am <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43393>

Steve Schmidt, John McCain's former campaign manager, told MSNBC
<http://thinkprogress.org/election/2012/11/05/1139141/mccain-strategist-admits-voter-fraud-doesnt-really-exist/>:
"I think that all of this stuff that has transpired over the last two
years is in search of a solution to a problem, voting fraud, that
doesn't really exist when you look deeply at the question. It's part of
the mythology now in the Republican Party that there's widespread voter
fraud across the country."
Remember what John McCain said during the 2008 campaign at a debate: "
"We need to know the full extent of Senator Obama's relationship with
ACORN, who is now on the verge of maybe perpetrating one of the greatest
frauds in voter history in this country, maybe destroying the fabric of
democracy."

"Controversial Arizona nonprofit releases name of contributors ---
more nonprofits" <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43391>
Posted on November 5, 2012 9:32 am <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43391>
by Rick Hasen <http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>
LA Times:
<http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/california-politics/2012/11/arizona-group-releases-names.html> "In
a stunning reversal, an obscure Arizona nonprofit at the center of a
legal battle over secret political contributions released on Monday
morning the identity of its contributors, which it had been fighting
tooth and nail to keep secret. But the disclosure did little to shed
light on who was behind the $11-million donation to a California
campaign fund. The Arizona group, Americans for Responsible Leadership,
identified its contributors only as other nonprofits. The money was
passed from Americans for Job Security to the Center to Protect Patient
Rights to Americans for Responsible Leadership, according to state
authorities. From there, the money was sent to a California campaign
committee fighting Gov. Jerry Brown's tax-hike plan, Proposition 30, and
pushing a separate ballot measure to curb unions' political influence,
Proposition 32."
More from TPM.
<http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/11/americans_responsible_leadership_donors_revealed.php>
This is a very important fight. California's disclosure law has been
particularly effective in preventing the kind of shell game we see here.
It is crucial for California to continue to pursue this case
aggressively (kudos all around), otherwise this shell game model would
become the norm in CA.

"Huge turnout, long lines for early voting in Ohio"

The /Cleveland Plain Dealer/ reports.
<http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2012/11/huge_turnout_long_lines_for_ea.html#incart_river_default>
It is worth recalling the words of Judge White, concurring in the Sixth
Circuit case which forced the state of Ohio to restore
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41187> this final weekend of early voting
which the legislature had taken away from all except military voters:
"The key distinguishing factor here is that Ohio voters were granted the
statutory right to in-person absentee voting through the close of
business hours on the Monday before election day, and the election
boards of the largest counties broadly embraced and facilitated that
right, in response to the unacceptably burdensome situation at many
Ohio polling sites during the 2004 election where, in some counties,
voters were required to stand in line for long hours and until late at
night."

Las Vegas Journal Rev. Ed Writer Says He Met with Noncitizens
Registered by Unions to Vote and Pressured to Vote

Posted on November 4, 2012 7:53 pm <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43346>

Glenn Cook
<http://www.lvrj.com/opinion/how-many-noncitizens-are-registered-to-vote-177141441.html>:
"Last week, I met with two immigrant noncitizens who are not eligible to
vote, but who nonetheless are active registered voters for Tuesday's
election. They said they were signed up by Culinary Local 226. They
speak and understand enough English to get by. But they don't read
English especially well. They say the Culinary official who registered
them to vote didn't tell them what they were signing and didn't ask
whether they were citizens. The immigrants said they trusted that the
union official's request was routine, thought nothing of it and went
about their work. Then the election drew closer. Then the Culinary
canvassers started seeking them out and ordering them to go vote."
This definitely requires further investigation.

Miami Herald
<http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/11/04/3081614/florida-democratic-party-files.html>:
On the surface, officials blamed technical equipment and a
lack of staff for the shutdown. But behind the scenes, there was
another issue: Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez.
The Republican had never signed off on the additional in-person
absentee voting hours in the first place.
"That was counter to what I said on Friday, which was we were not
going to change the game mid-stream," he said. "I said, 'No, there's
no way we did this.'"
But Gimenez, who is in a nonpartisan post, quickly realized it was
better to let the voting go on, and the voting resumed.
The mayor said he found out early Sunday afternoon --- from his
daughter-in-law --- about the extra voting hours.

Ned Foley
<http://moritzlaw.osu.edu/electionlaw/comments/index.php?ID=10019> [corrected
link]: "For all three of these reasons, it seems problematic for the
federal court to grant the relief the plaintiffs now request, even if it
were appropriate for the court to reach the merits of plaintiffs' new
claim. Ordinarily, I am hesitant to evaluate the merits of a pending
issue before a court until I've had the opportunity to read and reflect
upon the full briefing of the issue, from all sides to the litigation.
In the present situation, there are more briefs to come this week from
both plaintiffs and the Secretary of State (and perhaps others),
according to a schedule
<http://moritzlaw.osu.edu/electionlaw/litigation/documents/BriefingSchedule_001.pdf> set
by the court. But because there has been considerable media attention
<http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/11/ohios-provisional-ballot-order-the-biggest-legal-story-of-the-weekend/264498/> to
this issue over the weekend, I thought it might be helpful (for members
of the public trying to understand what is going on) to offer this
preliminary analysis of the issue---even though it is necessarily
tentative in light of the still-unfolding nature of litigation."

What if Sandy hit Florida or Ohio, and it was up to election officials
there to decide what do to about voters who cannot reach their polling
places? What if a Democrat election official allowed voting by email
for displaced voters?
We need a /national/ emergency plan for our elections.

"Behind the voting wars, a clash of philosophies"
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43289>
Posted on November 4, 2012 10:02 am
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=43289> by Rick Hasen
<http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>
I have written this cover piece
<http://www.sacbee.com/2012/11/03/4958430/republicans-have-pursued-election.html>
for the /Sacramento Bee'/s Sunday Forum section. It begins:
On Tuesday, voters will go to the polls in what is expected to be a
nail-bitingly close presidential election. Indeed, we may wake up
Wednesday morning, as voters did in 2000 and 2004, not knowing who
won. If we are extremely unlucky, the election will be so close that
it will go to a recount and possibly to the courts. The state whose
votes are pivotal to the election outcome -- Ohio, Florida, who
knows? -- will see its election process go under a microscope with
full dissection in real time over Twitter and Facebook. It would get
very ugly very quickly.
If the election comes down to the wire in this way, and if Mitt
Romney <http://topics.sacbee.com/Mitt+Romney/> ekes out a win, then
a series of election changes and administrative actions pursued by
Republican legislatures and election officials, as well as
challenges pursued by tea party activists, may prove to have given
him the winning margin. While crass political calculation is part of
the explanation for Republican pursuit of these tough new voting
rules, there is also a deeper philosophical divide between
Republicans and Democrats over the nature of voting and democracy, a
divide that the most recent skirmishes in the voting wars have laid
bare.
Another snippet:
Whether or not Republicans are genuinely concerned about voter fraud
<http://topics.sacbee.com/voter+fraud/> -- and if they were, the
first thing they should do is get rid of absentee ballots,
<http://topics.sacbee.com/absentee+ballots/> which would eliminate
the lion's share ofvoter fraud
<http://topics.sacbee.com/voter+fraud/> issues -- a voter fraud
<http://topics.sacbee.com/voter+fraud/> rationale cannot explain
recent Republican cutbacks on early voting.
In Ohio, Doug Preisse, chair of the Franklin County Republican Party
and elections board member, offered the Columbus Dispatch a
different explanation for his vote against extended weekend early
voting: "I guess I really actually feel we shouldn't contort the
voting process to accommodate the urban -- read African American --
voter-turnout machine. ... Let's be fair and reasonable."
But Republican cutbacks on voting go beyond the naked political
calculation to a philosophical divide with Democrats over the nature
of voting and elections. To many Republicans, voting is an exercise
in choosing the best candidate. Under that philosophy, it makes
sense to make voting harder to weed out those who might care less,
or be less tied to the community, or be less educated or intelligent.
And:
The Democrats' philosophy about voting and elections could not be more
different. Democrats tend to see elections as about the allocation of
power among political equals, and it is not the state's job to decide
who is smart enough or motivated enough to vote. Indeed, Democrats'
concerns about these new Republican laws is not really that they
literally will disenfranchise many voters; it is that by adding
additional effort to the requirements to cast a ballot, these new
Republican restrictions will deter casual voters from bothering to take
the steps necessary to cast a ballot that will count.
As with Republicans, the Democrats' philosophy on voting neatly ties
in with the party's self-interest. These casual voters are going to
be more likely to vote Democratic. Thus, proclaiming a high-minded
commitment to universal enfranchisement also is good for Democratic
candidates. It is no surprise that states which have adopted
Election Day registration -- as California recently did for future
elections -- tend to be states with Democratic-dominated
legislatures. Nor have Democrats shown any interest in removing
noncitizens from the rolls in the off-season, although noncitizen
voting remains a real, if small, problem.
The latest skirmishes in the voting wars have laid bare the
underlying voting philosophies of the two major parties, and the
connection of those philosophies to each party's self- interest.
This is a fight that's taken place at the margin, in technical
changes to voting rules. Perhaps these changes will have no effect
at all on the identity of the next president. Or perhaps they will
be the difference between four more years of Barack Obama and a new
presidency under Mitt Romney.

AP:
<http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2012/11/03/us/politics/ap-us-campaign-minority-contributions.html?ref=politics> " Americans
living in predominantly wealthy, white neighborhoods account for nearly
all the sizable campaign contributions in this year's presidential
election, according to an Associated Press analysis, even as the
presidential candidates have aggressively courted Hispanics. Latino
voters are widely viewed as pivotal for victories in some battleground
states Tuesday."
