Quick! Who was the company that admitted valid voters were purged?

[bbernardini]

I read it in "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy", but I forget now. They were one of the firms hired by Florida to purge the voter rolls, and admitted that thousand of valid voters were removed. Just trying to give somebody a spanking. :)

1. Database Technologies

6. Correct.

And its parent company is ChoicePoint, another company ran by Republicans and under investigation for shady dealings with data.

2. And how did Palast know most were African-American and Hispanic?

I don't doubt it, I just want to have my facts.

9. He said about half were.

Didn't he see the actual purged list? Go to www.gregpalast.com and do a search.

7. I think it was ChoicePoint

But they may have merged into Acceture since then.

Choice Point also nearly prevented me from renewing my car insurance due to their incompetence.

8. IIRC, ChoicePoint got the contract for Bush's T.I.A. too
