No surprise @ the link.  New York had the poorest showing in the country when it came to counting overseas and military ballots last November, a new report from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission found. The national average for ballots counted was 93.2 percent. But in New York, 73.9 percent of the 22,303 ballots cast were counted.

A lack of enforcement by DOJ and willy-nilly waivers granted by FVAP results in thousands of voters being disenfranchised in 2010.  Of course, New York’s intransigence in failing to enact legislation to become fully MOVE compliant is part of the problem.  New York won’t budge until DOJ goes belatedly to a federal judge and finally begs the court to order New York into some state of compliance. 

I bet the co-author of the MOVE Act, Senator Schumer, didn’t expect New York to be stuck with the 2010 scarlet letter for throwing out the most military and overseas votes.
