Incredibly encouraging is what this development is. This moves us a discernable step closer to the possibility that Obama would actually challenge a stolen election.

On Monday, the Supreme Court allowed states to reinstate an anti-democratic poll tax in the form of a state-issued ID. The justification was Republican charges of "voter fraud" which occurs about as often as Haley's Comet visits the earth.

But here's a real case of fraud, courtesy of Shaun Dakin:

According to NC public radio, someone named Lamont Williams is robocalling into Black neighborhoods with mis-information (Click here for the entire article as well as Audio).
