Who's sending fake Voter Registrations out in Florida?


I saw this article referenced on another website. To summarize, a 5-year-old boy, black according to the picture, received an official looking document for voter registration.

Now, normally I'd chalk this up to wacky goofiness and geniune error, but then there was this comment:

The Supervisor of Elections Office told Channel 4 applications are only mailed to adults over age 18 who ask for them, and what Taylor received in the mail definitely didn't come from their office.

(My italics.) So, ok, where did the form come from? Are there others? Are they going to largely black neighbourhoods? And who benefits from a mix-up on whether large numbers of blacks in Florida are questioned on their legitimacy on voting registration?

Not Obama. Because this will mean that all citizens in the areas where these registrations are received are likely to be slowed down in the voting procedure, reducing turn-out.

This sounds so Rovian...
