Barack Obama was very skillful in creating several supporting organizations which helped him to register voters. One of the best known groups that registered voters in 2008 was called OFA (Obama for America); at its peak, it had as many as eight million volunteers throughout the United States. Mr. Obama also received help from liberal and progressive groups like MoveOn.org, and several labor unions. Perhaps the most controversial group that helped register voters was ACORN, a community organizing group with expertise in registering poor voters. Republicans would soon accuse the group of perpetrating voter fraud, but fact-checkers and government investigators did not find any credible evidence of it. I enclose a link about ACORN's actual role in the 2008 election.
