Nothing was delivered, Part II

The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that thousands of cards mailed by county election boards to newly registered voters throughout Ohio are being returned because the people can't be found. Ohio Republican Party Chairman Robert Bennett says this is a result of statewide registration fraud conducted by independent groups that support Democratic candidates. Democratic Party spokesman Dan Trevas said the fraud uncovered in Ohio equates to "minor errors" when viewed in the bigger picture. State GOP records show that through Oct. 4, Hamilton County mailed 63,403 cards to new registrants, and 4,152 were returned - a rate of 6.6 percent. The number was third-highest in the state behind Cuyahoga County's 14,461 and Franklin's 6,917.

As Hugh Hewitt says, "if it's not close, they can't cheat." Unfortunately, in Ohio it's close, and the Dems seem to be cheating.
