Daily Voting News For April 6, 2008

Today we have the typical Sunday hodge-podge of news, editorials, and columns. I’ll take this space to remind every voter that one of the major problems we are seeing is voter registration data bases and the fact that a lot of otherwise qualified voters are being left off of those lists. Check with your local elections office and, if necessary, the state and ensure your name is still in the file. Do it now and maybe again in October. Better safe than sorry....
