Vote no on ballot question 1

Published October 12, 2008 4:00am ET



We haven’t learned. Seven years after the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon some people still want to make it easy for terrorists and others who seek to break our laws to vote. That’s just what will happen if state Ballot Question 1 passes. Vote No.

Ballot Question 1 would pave the way to expand early voting and to allow voters to cast their votes at polling places anywhere in the state.

Those reforms may seem harmless. But in a state where illegal immigrants can still obtain driver’s licenses and state identity cards – key documents for voter registration – they only make it easier to commit fraud. Remember, Hani Hanjour, a 9/11 terrorist, fraudulently obtained an identity card at a Motor Vehicle Administration branch in Beltsville.
