It just had to happen! Barking for the ballot in 2008

Dan from Dog Reflections tells us that a Washington woman registered her dog as a voter ahead of the forthcoming US presidential election, as a protest against lax voter registration rules.

Australian Shepherd
-terrier mix had a utility bill in “his name” - “Duncan M. MacDonald” as the identification needed to register......
When Duncan did receive his absentee ballots Balogh returned them with his paw print on the signature line, and the word “void” written through the ballot.

Meanwhile canine supporters of Obama in all their finery are coming out of the woodwork at Dog Reflections and Obama Dog.
