“Party of the rich: In Congress, it’s the Democrats”
AP reports: …But in Congress, the wealthiest among us are more likely to be represented by a Democrat than a Republican. Of the 10 richest House districts, only two have Republican congressmen.

Voter fraud investigated in Louisiana mayoral election
“The West Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office and the Louisiana Secretary of State’s Office have launched an investigation into allegations of voter fraud in the Port Allen mayoral race… the Sheriff’s Office received multiple complaints about hundreds of mail-in and faxed requests for early voting ballots that did not match voter information on file with the parish Registrar of Voters Office… “Johnson said at least one of the ballots under review in the special election is from someone tied to the campaign of former Mayor Demetric ‘Deedy’ Slaughter, who is seeking re-election after her Nov. 16 recall, less than six months into her first term as mayor.” Slaughter’s “historic” recall was prompted by an administration “peppered with controversy, beginning immediately after she took office in January when she was criticized for charging taxpayers the $2,500 cost of a trip to Washington, D.C., to attend President Barack Obama’s second inauguration.”

Florida voter roll cleanup delayed again, until after 2014 election
Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner told local election supervisors that efforts to identify and remove non-U.S. citizens from the state’s voter rolls will be delayed again – this time due to changes to the DHS Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database, used to help identify potential ineligible non-citizens, that won’t be done before the 2014 election. The state wanted to match potential ineligible voters found on the voter rolls with the names maintained by the federal government. Detzner said the changes proposed for the database should “enhance and improve the credibility” of the system, but that the work would not be complete until 2015… Detzner did remind election supervisors that they remain responsible for removing any ineligible voters if they receive any information questioning a person’s voter registration status.
