I don't even think Al Gore whined this long!
BOSTON, April 10 (AP) - Many voters in last year's election were denied access to the polls through trickery and intimidation, Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts told a voters' group on Sunday.
'Last year, too many people were denied their right to vote; too many who tried to vote were intimidated,' Mr. Kerry said at an event sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts.
He cited examples of trickery. 'Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday,' Mr. Kerry said. 'People are told in telephone calls that if you've ever had a parking ticket, you're not allowed to vote."
