Voter Laws Scrutinized For Impact On Midterms 18 Nov 2014 In North Carolina, early voting was cut by seven days. In Kansas, 22,000 people were stopped from registering to vote because they lacked proof of citizenship. And in Texas, Democrats say the country's toughest voter ID law contributed to a one-term congressman losing a tight race to his Republican rival. After an Election Day that featured a wave of new voting restrictions across the country, data and details about who cast a ballot are being picked over to see if tighter rules swayed the outcomes of any races or contributed to the lowest voter turnout in 72 years.

Are Flu Vaccines Risking Senior Citizens' Lives? Some Say Yes 16 Nov 2014 ...In her blog, Sharyl Attkisson cites a buried JAMA study from almost a decade ago which showed that there was no improvement in mortality rates among senior citizens with a flu vaccine, even after greatly increased vaccination rates...Johns Hopkins scientist, Peter Doshi, Ph.D., issued a report in the prestigious British Medical Journal, according to NewsLI, asserting that the CDC policy of routinely recommending the flu vaccine is being based on "low quality studies that do not substantiate claims." Interestingly, Doshi cites an Australian study which found significant risks for children as well, stating that "one in every 110 children under the age of five had convulsions following vaccinations in 2009 for H1N1 influenza." During the dr-g trials for the Fluzone flu vaccine, 23 seniors out of 3,833 died after receiving the shot, according to the dr-g's package insert, reported by Health Impact News. Another 226 experienced "serious adverse effects."

Paul LePage's administration [of lunatics] cannot remove thousands of low-income young people from Maine's Medicaid rolls, a federal appeals court judge ruled Monday. Chief Judge Sandra Lynch of the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston ruled that the federal government was correct in rejecting the Republican governor's plan to eliminate coverage for about 6,000 19- and 20-year-olds...Maine has covered that population for more than 20 years, the judge said.
