James Carabelli, the chairman of the Republican Party in Macomb County, Michigan is planning to block people from voting in the upcoming election if their homes are in foreclosure.
He told the Michigan Messenger “We will have a list of foreclosed homes and will make sure people aren’t voting from those addresses”
However, a foreclosure notice is hardly PROOF that a resident no longer lives at an address, as many stay in their homes whilst negotiating and/or refinancing the mortgage.
If proof is needed for anything, let's state that Michigan is recognised as a key swing state for November.
Let's also state that majority of households who have defaulted on their loans - and thus could be prevented from casting their ballot on November 4th - are African-American families.... who are overwhelmingly Democratic voters.
Whilst the Republicans are saying they want to avoid voter fraud, they themselves can easily be accused of voter suppression.
It looks like the shit-gripping GOP is gearing itself up to, again, STEAL the election. Just like they did in Florida in 2000 and Ohio in 2004.
