Is Obama Blocking Military Voting?
In a move that puts new meaning to the term battleground, President Obama’s re-election campaign and members of some military groups are on a collision course over voting rights in the critical state of Ohio.
The Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee have filed a lawsuit to block a new state law allowing men and women in uniform to vote up until the Monday right before an election, while the cutoff on early voting for the rest of the public is three days earlier.
Top Obama campaign officials told Fox News in interviews that the lawsuit in no way tries to restrict the voting rights of military members. All they are trying to do is even the playing field for all voters in Ohio by allowing early voting up until Monday for everyone, including members of the military, because they believe a two-tiered, early-voting process is unfair.

Barry and mooch hate the United States and the very instrument that made it possiible for a poser to ascend to the highest office this great country offers. Naturally he doesn’t want the military to vote, for they know that the military holds him in contempt.

If nothing else, under the guise of “giving all Americans time to vote” Obama is encouraging more and more civilian voter fraud and abuse.

Hellz yes they want EVERYONE to ba able to vote up to the last minute — because they have to know how many fraudulent votes they’ll need to eke out a win.
Meanwhile, if you want to get sick to your stomach AGAIN about the Choomer in Chief, check out how he released a jihadi from prison who killed five U.S. soldiers. Four were kidnapped and tortured by this piece of trash before he killed them.
