Buck Wood, an Austin election-law attorney who mainly represents Democrats, estimates-based on interviews he and his staff did with about 100 Escapees-that roughly half the members have never been to Rainbow's End. "That is deadly," he says. "You cannot register [to vote] in a place you've never been." Only about 10 percent, he contends, are even full-time RVers, people so committed to the RV lifestyle that they no longer rent or own a home. (A cross-check of Polk County voter rolls and out-of-state property records confirms that at least several Escapees members own homes or RV lots in other states.) [Cathie Carr], who calls Sharon Teal "vicious" and "irritating," insists that most Escapees are plugged into Polk County, serving on juries, volunteering in the community, and attending ch...

As a former Utahn and now a proud civilian living in Texas, I was surprised at the lack of correct information in a letter to the editor published May 2. Michael Huff incorrectly assumes that because Texas is a state rich in electoral votes that the 20,000- plus soldiers of the 4th Infantry Division at Fort Hood somehow returned early while those soldiers serving from Utah are being picked on by having their tours extended by three months. Soldiers stationed at Fort Hood do not have much say in the state or local governments, unless they choose to do so. This is because thousands of soldiers register to vote in their home state and vote by absentee ballot for their home state, not Texas. Thousands, not hundreds of the 4th Infantry Division soldiers had their tours extended from what was...

The great American heroine, Susan B. Anthony once said, "Suffrage is the pivotal right." Today, voting is still one of the most significant rights extended to United States citizens. This presidential election year provides an excellent opportunity to exercise this right. Under British rule, the American colonists were forced to pay taxes to Great Britain, yet they had no one to represent their interests in Parliament. The colonists rebelled against this policy of, "taxation without representation," fought a major war to win independence, and then founded the United States of America as a "Republic." This form of government would allow the citizens to elect people who would then represent their interests in Congress. Less than a century ago, women could not legally vote. The Women's Suf...
