All the organizations that collect voter registrations ARE REQUIRED to turn in every application, whether someone wrote Mickey Mouse on it or whether it is a serious and truthful application. Acorn separated the applications into the obviously not legitimate aps, the questionable aps, and the legitimate aps. They turned them in to election offices with those separations. That's normal procedure. This has become a big issue only because the Republicans have to distract voters from the real campaign issue of the economy.
