You Otter be nicer to us

Respectful of Otters has a nice post today on a story that is slowly spreading across the vast expanse of liberal blogdom. It's your usual story of disenfranchisement and paper shredding. Exciting stuff. Good thing it's not happening in this country. Best country on earth!! That is what we keep saying. Maybe if we repeat it often enough someone will kick our respective asses. May hope spring eternal.

from Respectful of Otters:
"We caught her taking Democrats out of my pile, handed them to her assistant and he ripped them up right in front of us. I grabbed some of them out of the garbage and she tells her assistant to get those from me," said Eric Russell, former Voters Outreach employee.

Eric Russell managed to retrieve a pile of shredded paperwork including signed voter registration forms, all from Democrats. We took them to the Clark County Election Department and confirmed that they had not, in fact, been filed with the county as required by law.

The company has been largely, if not entirely funded, by the Republican National Committee.
