I await your explanation of the incidents described herein, particularly the bribery and the 10,000 duplicate registrations in one county alone, as benign discrepancies. While not necesarily fraudulent on their own, willful submission of massed duplicates is clearly intended to tie up the people charged with the responsibility of keeping the election clean, thereby allowing obvious frauds to slip through.

asnd again you are blowing a case far out of proportion.
Discrepancies such as an initial on the drivers license versus the entire middle name on the voter registration and such as that -- name and address changes since getting drivers license -- there is absolutely no fraud there.
you aren't involved in the case so I don't see how you have any right to make a statement regarding it whenyou really don't know any of the details
all we have are newspaper reports and the exact nature of the discrepancies isn't included in the stories.
the Republicans would seem to taking illegitimate actions -- this is another case of keeping legitimate voters from the polls through setting up straw men of issues.
common people might get too much power

Registering and Voting
According to all the reports so far, there is no evidence of any actual voter fraud in Ohio. There are discrepancies in many registration forms, but most are thought to be benign, and as much the fault of faulty database information as citizen error. The safeguards in place are working, which is why we know about all the registration problems to begin with.
