YouTube Description:
"Yesterday, documents posted by Scott Keyes at TPM showed that the Romney campaign in Wisconsin is training poll-watchers to lie at polling stations by registering as "concerned citizens" rather than campaign volunteers; to untruthfully tell voters they are ineligible to vote unless they show proof of residency; and to misleadingly warn voters they are ineligible if they have been convicted of treason or bribery. It is all intentionally dishonest, and particularly so because so much of the RNC leadership—including Chairman Reince Priebus—has roots in Wisconsin local leadership." Cenk Uygur discusses the many instances of voter suppression that have already happened across the country-- mostly against minority and handicapped voters or areas that are heavily Democratic. Cenk breaks it all down and tells us why these attempts have gotten so egregious.

HAHAHA you called him a Fruitcake...that's just silly.
In all seriousness though I support Voter suppression in all it's forms. Everyone should stop voting.
messengerPeople who's sole business is predicting things are all saying Obama's going to win. To me, this means more than polls.

articianNormally he has some evidence for his ranting. He didn't show anything this time. For about a year now the Young Turks newscasts have really turned me off. Even if I agree with them politically, they just seem to be playing the Fox game now.
TangledThornsThe Young Turds are really nervous. Deal with it, Romney is gonna win!
Mikus_AureliusTreason? The last treason conviction was in 1952. Is this the new (nonexistent) voter fraud for the GOP to worry about?

It's all taken from the daily beast article in the description. But yeah Cenk does have a way of omitting details. He's usually on to something I care about, but I find it's more informative and less irritating to just skip the video and read his source.
