Public School Lets Only Democrats Register Students to Vote
Family Security Matters reports:
Florida Republicans are outraged after a school district allowed a pro-Obama organization to conduct student voter registration drives and deliver speeches to classes – but denied the Romney campaign similar opportunities.
Pasco County Schools confirmed to Fox News that volunteers from Organizing For America were given access to as many as a half dozen high school and middle school campuses.
“They did register students to vote,” spokesman John Mann told Fox News. “We don’t know how many children were registered – (but) we have an ongoing investigation.”
According to email correspondence obtained by Fox News, volunteers tried to infiltrate at least three other school campuses – but on-campus officials rebuffed those efforts.
In addition to voter registration, a former teacher was allowed to deliver Obama speeches to a number of senior high school students.
“She got into six classrooms and gave pro-Obama speeches – like way off to the left,” said James Mathieu, general counsel for the Pasco County Republican Party. “That got out to parents and parents complained.”

And the cheating begins. Any student who registered as a Republican could probably have found his registration form in the garbage after school.

Yeah, that’s why they’re called ‘RATs… ’cause they’re sneaky bastards. But older teens tend to take the opposite view of whatever they’re told by an authoritative figure, so this, too, may well backfire.

They really believe they are right and everyone else is wrong, so why let racist republicans vote?
Assholes all!

Billy Clinton visited UC Davis today and gave a speech. The local channels covered it, I listened to part of it on the drive home. The purpose of his visit was to support a couple local liberal candidates. He used the term “Shared Prosperity” 3 times while I was listening. The entire democratic party is off the freaken rails. This election is a fight for our country.

Weldor — I’ll do you one better. Tonight was the night L’il Barry officially lost the race. The alphabet networks are doing some brutal reporting on Benghazi Gate and giving horrific details about Amb. Stevens’s nurder.
Also, the Suffolk polling bunch has pulled out of VA, FL and NC ’cause they say they’ve all gone red!

OK, maybe some of the senior class of high school could be 18, but lower class men and middle schools?
Um, how the hell is that happening? I guess your dead grandpa isn’t enough to shore up the vote, now they have to appeal to the Clearasil voting bloc?
Fraud is going to run rampant!

Brooke you are correct. the article mentions ” middle school” just how many 18 yr olds are still in middle school? If they are 18 and still in 8th grade I would suspect they ain’t smart enough to cast a ballot. But no voter fraud here just move along.

Kids can’t vote. High and middle schoolers are too young to vote.
Something smells fishy here…….
