Dems target felon voters

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 5, 2006 11:08 AM

In Tennessee, liberal activists are busy registering ex-felons to vote in time for the November elections. Tipster Tom sends a press release issued by the local NAACP chapter:

100,000 Ex-Felons Gain Right To Vote In Tennessee – In Time For November
Elections

On September 5, 2006 at the Clarksville – Montgomery County Board of
Education, Building 621 Gracey Ave., Clarksville, TN, starting at 6:30 p.m.
a special panel of guests that will include:

Representatives from the Election Commission, TN Bar Association, The
Brennan Center for Justice, as well as a Former Convicted Felon who will
vote for the first time in his life, will participate in a “Get Your Right
to Vote Back” Town Hall Meeting.

What was once the country’s most confusing voter restoration system, with
six different procedures and sub-categories for restoration, has now been
streamlined into a single restoration process which will give back the
state’s 100,000 former felons their right to vote, has many of them flocking
to town hall meetings hosted by the ACLU & NAACP across the state.

The meeting is expected to be attended by Former Felons, Family Members of
Former Felons, Attorneys, Law Enforcement, City & County Officials, Judges,
Politicians, Church Clergy, Etc. and a tentatively scheduled special
appearance by TN Governor Phil Bredesen, who signed the bill into law in
June 2006.

The League of Women Voters will be on hand to conduct voter registration for
Former Felons and any other potential voters in the Community.

We urge you, the Media, to come out to cover and learn more about this
important voting rights issue.

UNLOCK YOUR VOTING RIGHTS TODAY!

Will felons be the critical swing vote this fall? Stay tuned.
