I wish I could have gotten a second shot at this one – slightly more DoF and framed it differently, but this earned me 6 mosquito bites, so I didn’t feel like going back for more.

Powell Endorses Obama
Posted by miri On 19 October, 2008
Former Secretary of State Colin L. Powell endorsed Senator Barack Obama for president on Sunday morning as a candidate who was reaching out in a “more diverse and inclusive way across our society†and offering a “calm, patient, intellectual, steady approach†to the nation’s problems.
The endorsement, on the NBC public affairs program “Meet the Press,†was a major blow to Senator John McCain, who has been a good friend of Mr. Powell for decades. Mr. Powell, a Republican, has advised Mr. McCain in the past on foreign policy.

Justices Rule Against Ohio G.O.P. in Voting Case
Posted by miri On 17 October, 2008
The Supreme Court on Friday overturned a lower court’s order requiring state officials in Ohio to supply information that would have made it easier to challenge prospective voters. The decision was a setback for Ohio Republicans, who had sued to force the Ohio secretary of state, a Democrat, to provide information about database mismatches to county officials.
The decision has the potential to affect as many as 200,000 of the 660,000 new voters who have been registered in Ohio since Jan. 1, according Social Security Administration and state election officials.
