Republican Party officials in Ohio took formal steps yesterday to place thousands of recruits inside polling places on Election Day to challenge the qualifications of voters they suspect are not eligible to cast ballots.

Party officials say their effort is necessary to guard against fraud arising from aggressive moves by the Democrats to register tens of thousands of new voters in Ohio, seen as one of the most pivotal battlegrounds in the Nov. 2 elections.

"The organized left's efforts to, quote unquote, register voters - I call them ringers - have created these problems," said James P. Trakas, a Republican co-chairman in Cuyahoga County.

You know, if you say "quote unquote", you're not actually quoting anything.

The organized left... makes it sound like organized crime! I'm sure it's just a coincidence! NARF!

Let's go dig up Edgar Allan Poe, get him drunk and drag him from one voting place to the next. Good times, good times.
