An Iraqi absentee voting booth in Tennessee?

How does that work?

There are a lot of Iraqi citizens in the United States. Wasn't a very pleasent place under Saddam.

I didn't say "Iraqi absentee voting botths in the US?"

I said "Iraqi absentee voting boths in Tennessee?"

Really, that's a pretty bad place to place an IRAQI ABSENTEE VOTING BOOTH.

I heard on the news that 15,000 Iraqis have registered to vote over here. They expect about 4,000 of them to really turn up.

Yeah, same thing is happening over here. Our family actually knows a few refugees from Iraq, before the war. Phil's right, certainly wasn't pleasent.

^ Despite that seeming like a low percentage, the people over there are, according to pre-polls, supposed to turn out with 60-80% voter turnout. That beats our most recent election.

Reason: They've got a stake in it...
