NBC's In Depth feature was Campaign '08 related--not about Presidential politics but about election logistics. Mark Potter speculated that voter turnout might be higher than ever this November and focused on three key swing states, Ohio, Colorado and Florida. In Ohio, the state is hoping to prevent the long lines of the 2004 General Election by encouraging early voting. Colorado also offers voting by mail. In Florida, voter education campaigns are under way to forestall problems with new machines, registration rules and recounted ballots. Potter consulted unidentified election experts who told him that as many as 50m votes, as much as one third of the entire franchise, will be cast before Election Day.
As the old slogan goes Vote Early! Vote Often! Dead Men Only Vote Twice!
