Ahh but there are scandalous actions already taking part on behalf of the GOP. Voter registrations of democrats are being destroyed.
According to CBSNews.com Chief Political Writer David Paul Kuhn
"Officials in Oregon have launched a criminal investigation after receiving numerous complaints that a Republican-affiliated group was destroying registration forms filed by Democratic voters statewide, Oregon Secretary of State Bill Bradbury told CBSNews.com"
"Meanwhile, CBS affiliate KLAS-TV is reporting accusations of similar malfeasance in Nevada."
"Both state's allegations are linked to a Phoenix political consulting firm called Sproul & Associates run by Nathan Sproul, former head of the Arizona Republican Party. Sproul & Associates has received nearly $500,000 from the Republican National Committee this election cycle, according to the Center for Responsive Politics."

And there are other scandals as well.
Pentagon-Bush military records destroyed (Seattle Times 07-09-04)
"Military payroll records that could more fully document President Bush's whereabouts during his service in the Texas Air National Guard were inadvertently destroyed, according to the Pentagon.
In a letter responding to a freedom of information request by The Associated Press, the Defense Department said that microfilm containing the pertinent National Guard payroll records was damaged and could not be salvaged. The damaged material included payroll records for the first quarter of 1969 and the third quarter of 1972.
President Bush's payroll records for those two quarters were among the records destroyed, wrote C.Y. Talbott, of the Pentagon's Freedom of Information and Security Review section. "Searches for back-up paper copies of the missing records were unsuccessful."

I guess we will be having another scandalous election like the Florida debacle all over again. Some people don't want 4 more years of the tyrant George Bush. Or more freedoms taken away like his infamous "Patriot Act" aimed at scaring people into submission.
The citizens of the United States of America need to know what the government is doing. To hold government accountable, the public must stay informed of the activities of their government. The Electronic Privacy Information Center effectively uses the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to inform the public of excessive government secrecy in using the USA PATRIOT Act, government surveillance of individuals, and more.
According to EPIC "Northwest Airlines handed over millions of passenger records to NASA; U.S. House of Representatives Majority Leader Tom DeLay used the Federal Aviation Administration to track Texas state legislators; the Department of Justice resisted disclosing basic, statistical information about its use of USA PATRIOT Act powers."
