The reports are rolling in from all over the country. A Craven County, NC resident attempts to vote a straight Republican ticket but his choices come up straight Democrat four times, despite receiving assistance from poll workers. In NC's Lenoir County, registered Democrat Ervin Norville also tries to vote straight Republican but finds that his ballot has the names of several Democrat candidates selected. Boulder City, NV resident Joyce Ferrara says that when she and several others went to vote for Sharon Angle, they found that Senator Harry Reid's name was already checked off. In Dallas County, TX' congressional district 30, Democrat Eddie Bernice Johnson's name was the only one on the ballot in a few locations (no, she isn't running unopposed). And some states have been late in mailing out military absentee ballots, whose recipients, interestingly, are known for their Republican leanings.
These happenings are generally referred to as "mistakes" and "glitches," but if that's all they are, then we're witnessing a truly historic anomaly. Because either the mainstream media is now suppressing stories of mistakes and glitches benefitting Republicans, or the laws of probability have suddenly been rescinded and tossed coins are coming up donkey tails every time. Welcome to American elections, Venezuelan style.
OMFG!!! This is typical rightwing insanity! Typical close- to- election- day theatrics. They destroyed ACORN, they stole the Gore v Bush election, and now they want Americans to believe their losses this election will be the result of FRAUD! LMFAO!!
Remember this from the Bush /Gore election.......
an anonymous leaflet explaining to voters that because of heavy voter registration, the rules had been changed: Republicans would vote on Tuesday, Democrats and independents on Wednesday.
this is from an '07 Salon article.....
Republicans do cherish their little practical jokes -- the leaflets in African-American neighborhoods warning that voters must pay outstanding traffic tickets before voting; the calls in Virginia in 2006 from the mythical "Virginia Election Commission" warning voters they would be arrested if they showed up at the polls. The best way to steal an election is the old-fashioned way: control who shows up. It's widely known that Republicans do better when the turnout is lighter, whiter, older and richer; minorities, young people and the poor are easy game for hoaxes and intimidation.
The latest and most elaborate of these jokes is the urban legend that American elections are rife with voter fraud, particularly in the kinds of poor and minority neighborhoods inhabited by Democrats. In 2002, Attorney General John Ashcroft announced that fraudulent voting would be a major target of the Department of Justice. As the New York Times reported last month, the main result of this massive effort was such coups as the deportation of a legal immigrant who mistakenly filled out a voter-registration card while waiting in line at the department of motor vehicles.
Sickening isn't it? Get real wingnuts, we know your games....
The wingnuts are INSANE and it's getting worse, scary worse. People wise up, look around you. The latest arrest, a nasty, man-handled, knock-down drag out arrest by thug cops, of a democrat minding his own business in a public coffee house waiting for Eric Cantor to show up for a small town question /answer gathering, is proof of something very evil creeping into our society by the wingnutfucks. It is something I plan on calling attention to and begging, daring, any rightwinger to come here and defend their thug party! This man was accused of causing a disturbance, he was in a public coffee house, he was told to leave because he was a democrat and the righties FEAR democrats asking questions of their candidates!! THAT'S IT, That's why the man was knocked to the ground and jumped on by 3 or more thug cops!! Sorry guys this is not my America!
Sarah Palin thinks she can win the GOP nomination in 2012 based on her "common sense sensibilities"
Where's God when you need Him??
