Voting games are being played all over.. My wife's Aunt, now 90, lives in a senior care home in Iowa, she's been told she can't vote! Apparently they don't have absentee ballots, and since she can't get to the polls, had to quit driving a couple years back, she can't vote! That is a sick situation... In her case it's likely a R vote, so , we'll not push it, but I bet there are lots of non voting seniors in IA and other States... It should all be a National policy, and everyone votes...

Were you aware that during the Republican Caucuses in Iowa today that they are NOT going to be asking for a photo-ID before people will permitted to express there choice for a Republican nominee for President? However, when November comes, you will need a photo-ID to vote in Iowa. When asked why they are not using the same rules in the caucuses as for an election, it was reported that one official stated that they didn't want to create a situation where people might not be allowed to vote because they forgot their ID's or didn't have one in the first place. When asked how was this any different than the general election, they were told that during a caucus since everybody knows everybody already there's no need for ID's because we can vouch for each other, but during a general election who knows who might be trying to vote.
