39%% of elgible blacks and 46%% of elgible Latinos are not registered to vote

39%% of elgible blacks and 46%% of elgible Latinos are not registered to
vote as of today 5-14-08.
There is a rush by the left to get them registered and a stall by the
right to deny them from registering. That just proves right wing
ideology is racist to the bone.

Well, actually it only proves that right wingers know whom they will
(preponderantly) vote for. It might have something to do with the
suspicion that they will vote therir own self-interest. Toci

If they aren't registered, how do you know how many there are to figure
what percentage?

1. Where do those figures come from?

2. How many eligible whites are not registered to vote?

3. If it is true, it proves that *some* right wing people don't want them
to vote, possibly because they are racist.

Trying to get minorities to register is a life time job.
Hell we lose some 10%% of voters each year from their moving.
I have always believed that the Board of Elections should be made a part of
the USPO. They know where all the people are anyway.
We should at least get something from that $0.42 stamp.

After trying to get people to register for some 50 years I would say that
some 60%% of Americans eligible to vote are not registered.
And yes both parties cherry pick.
Which still pisses me off.

In Michigan you can register at the Secretary of State's office when you go
in to change or get a driver's license.

And if you don't drive?
I think you mean a registar' office.
The State Capital could be a long ways off for some people.

Yep. There's no end to these Goper efforts to suppress the vote. Now
they're prohibiting voter registration drives at VA facilities...
