More Maryland Republican Dirty Campaign Tricks

"Inaccurate sample ballots describing Republican Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. and Senate candidate Michael S. Steele as Democrats were handed out to voters in at least four polling sites in Prince George's County this morning.

The ballots were distributed by people who said they arrived by buses this morning from Pennsylvania and Delaware.

Erik Markle, one of the people handing out literature for Ehrlich, who is seeking reelection, and Steele, the current lieutenant governor who is campaigning to replace retiring Sen. Paul Sarbanes (D), said he was recruited at a homeless shelter in Philadelphia."

You have to ask yourself why a political party would need to hand out phony sample ballots where they say they are from the opposition party in order to try and trick people into voting for them.

How awful and low is that?

How great is our political ideology that we are going to trick you into voting for us!
