The map below is what Rachel showed on the air. The states in yellow are important swing states. The ones with the red X marks are the important swing states where the RNC had hired Nathan Sproul's firm exclusively to handle their registration drive. With the contract cancelled, and no back-up plan, the RNC misses out on the final push before registration closes in these crucial states.
From Michael Isikoff on NBCNews.com's Frst Read:
"Besides Florida, Strategic Allied Consulting was hired to register GOP voters in Nevada, North Carolina, Colorado and Virginia. Spicer said it was the only firm hired by the RNC to conduct voter registration."
Monday's coverage reported the story in greater detail.

They won both of baby Bush's elections at the box. The exit polls showed Gore was the winner and they are never wrong. They had bad voting machines in Democratic districts. The next election they did not have enough voting machines in Democratic districts in Ohio. People had to stand in line all day and then they were turned away without voting. It's the only way the Republicans can win - cheating.
Imagine the GOP tears and teeth gnashing if a bill was proposed for a national i d card. It would somehow be gov't overreach. Hypocrisy thy name will always be GOP.
Back to plan A...rig the machines.
Once they get laws into place that deny democrats the right to vote then maybe they can quit trying all this crap!
The firm will be back, renamed but offering the exact same services.
Another Blackwater type?
We are a much better organization now.We recieved funding for therapy and started a whole new life.
Why would you hire a group that changed it's name because it had engaged in deceitful practices in which they were sited? Where hasn't corruption, manipulation and lies not been engaged in the Republican Party since 2001, nowhere. I believe what we are witnessing is the fall of the Republican Party. They may want to still call themselves that, but they have been overtaken by greed and deceit in an attempt to rule instead of govern. And hasn't anyone ever told Ann Romney that it was rude and impolite to point at people. She does it all the time. I was taught not to point. They are living in the wrong Country, now World, if they think they can run our Nation under some kind of a Corporate dictatorship. Romneys' America Incorporated. Too bad for them that actual human beings will get to decide.
"STOP IT!!!! THIS IS GETTING EVEN HARDER!!!!!!" --- Ann Romney, fingers pointing everywhere.
So a friend of mine, a former Republican, forwarded me an email she received from the Mitt Romney campaign. Apparently, Mitt is looking for a few (hundred) volunteers to walk and talk to voters in Nevada. He'll pay for your ticket and hotel room for your volunteer services. :)
So I guess this is the new company/plan B for voter registration. Wonder what hotel he'll put people up in. Maybe the Pink Flamingo...So tempting. *wink*
Hey everybody, get out and BLOCK THE VOTE!
