Why is this called a victory for the Democrats?

In a victory for the Democrats, a federal judge ruled Thursday that Ohio voters who show up at the wrong polling place on Election Day can still cast ballots as long as they are in the county where they are registered.

U.S. District Judge James Carr blocked a directive from Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell, a Republican, who recently announced that poll workers must send voters to their correct precinct.

The judge said voters who show up at the wrong polling place after moving without notifying the elections board, and those whose names cannot be found on the registration rolls, should be able to cast provisional ballots there.

Denying any voter the right to a provisional vote will erode confidence in the election and lessen the incentive to vote, the judge said. (Emphasis added)

It sounds to me like a defeat for all of us; at least those of us who exercise our civic duty to register and then cast our single ballot per the established voting regulations. Does anyone else understand that this makes it possible for one person to hit every polling station in their county and vote there? Even if they are later caught (unlikely), it would not be possible to remove their anonymous votes from ballot box. I repeat my question: Why are the Republicans insisting on minimal checks and balances while the Democrats are hellbent on removing them?

If I were King of Ohio, the decision would be the opposite and the newspaper quote would read like this:

Allowing any individual the right to a provisional vote without any basic registration checking will erode confidence in the election and increase the incentive to cheat.

The potential mess is really starting to get under my skin and I am not the only one.

UPDATE: Bill Hobbs more signs of voter fraud in Ohio.
