In Alabama, millions of voters and registration is still open

It seems that all states are preparing for or already dealing with huge crowds of voters for this election. In Alabama, it is no different. Registration levels have hit a record of nearly 3 million people, and people can continue to register until this Friday. Registration data shows a surge is registration by young (18-24 yrs old), Hispanic, and black people. Since December 2007, the registration of black voters jumped 12 percent and Hispanic voters 45 percent. Could this narrow the race for McCain? It might narrow the race, but McCain still holds a solid lead in conservative Alabama.
