Democrats show that once again they are sore losers, and are suing to invalidate the 2002 Georgia Democratic Primary in which Cynthia McKinney was defeated. The voter lawsuit contends that McKinney was defeated largely due to Republican crossover voting, which 'disenfranchised' the Democratic voters.
The major problem with the lawsuit is that Georgia doesn't have party registration. That means that there is no such thing as a Democratic or Republican voter. Under Georgia law, all voters are the same, and instead must choose which ballot they want when they walk in the door.
Ironically, the suit wants to deny voters the right to choose the ballot on which they want to vote, which is truly disenfrachisement.
