Our government found a way to provide access to the ballot for Iraqis. But when it comes to former New Orleans residents, our government seems less diligent. |
They should have been allowed to vote wherever they are - like we did for the Iraqi people and the government paid for it with our tax dollars. |
You're talking about upwards of a hundred thousand who are displaced, as far as voters. So that's a lot of people, and the numbers so far that have come in show there's a large hurdle to get to a high turnout in this election. I don't expect one. But I'm an optimist. We're going to do everything we can. |
