Last elections had 1,5 million dead people eligible to vote and over 3 million were able to vote in several states.

As usual, the right has to distort what the left thinks. No one is in favor of fraud. We are saying that picture IDs would not prevent the kinds of fraud that actually can influence elections.

I watched the video. Besides showing that the Republican Party is incredibly incompetent and can't even run small primaries properly, could you point out anything that picture IDs would have prevented?

What the video taught me is that Republicans shouldn't be in charge of anything. I've also read that,, in the Nevada contest, it took several recounts to get 14 votes counted properly? laugh

Yes, because the liberals believe that minorities are incapable of getting an ID card. It is either the worse form of racism or the lames excuse for blocking fair and honest elections I have ever heard. It is likely both.

So; do you really believe that minorities are incapable of getting an ID card Groucho48? That they are so weak they must depend on you for everything? This racism from the libreals is getting old. The way to stop racism is to stop being racist. Let's start with you Groucho48. Stop being a racist.

Convince me ID cards are needed and I'll be inn favor of them. 5 years of intensive investigations by the Bush DOJ, actual election records for the last few decades, and common sense says that getting hundreds and thousands and hundreds of thousands of voters to vote as someone else is an incredibly stupid and non-existent way of trying to steal an election.

Meanwhile, yes, it DOES make it more difficult to vote. Especially for older folks, poorer folks or folks without a car.


Thirty-six percent of Georgians over 75 do not have a driver’s license. Fewer than 3 percent of Wisconsin students have driver’s licenses listing their current address. The same study found that African Americans have driver’s licenses at half the rate of whites, and the disparity increases among younger voters; only 22% of black men aged 18-24 had a valid driver’s license.
.
.
.
In Ohio, a statewide survey found four instances of ineligible persons voting or attempting to vote in 2002 and 20042C out of 9,078,728 votes cast - a rate of 0.00004%. Despite the invocation of fraud as support for the new Georgia law, Georgia Secretary of State Cathy Cox has stated that she could not recall one documented case of voter fraud relating to the impersonation of a registered voter at the polls during her ten-year tenure as an election official. Nationwide, since October 2002, 86 individuals have been convicted of federal crimes relating to election fraud (including several offenses not remedied by ID requirements), while 196,139,871 ballots have been cast in federal general elections.

If you are referring to Republican Party attempts to destroy Ron Paul, I agree with you.

In primaries, it isn't that difficult for a party to manipulate the vote. There aren't any poll watchers from the other party to keep things honest. Much of the legendary fraud in Chicago, in the bad, old days, wasn't to cheat Republicans; it was to cheat independent Democrats trying to fight the Democratic machine.

But, we are talking about Republicans, so, incompetence is always an option. If you always assume Republicans are incompetent and Democrats are cowards, you will seldom be disappointed.

That's a really horrible mix of metaphors, Aerlin. Part of the criticism against Nero "playing the lyre while Rome burned" was that he and his camp actually started the fires.

I'm against any tax on voting. Period. Anything that makes this system more complicated, difficult, or expensive to cast a vote is simply wrong. We want more participation, not less.

Mandating more government, while asking for less government is kinda dumb.

Actually, I have said several times that this is a potential problem. Requiring county clerks to send updated death lists to the board of elections shortly before election day would fix it fairly easily and cheaply.

But, just because dead folks are still on the rolls doesn't mean that people use this to commit fraud. That felon's attempt in Maine to have his minions pretend to be dead people and vote wasn't completely successful. At least one guy, out of maybe 10, was caught.

Yes, there are a lot of invalid voter registrations out there. And ACORN got in trouble for having registrations for "Mickey Mouse" and "Dallas Cowboys" (legally they had to turn them in, they aren't supposed to preemptively judge if someone is lying when filling out their voter registration forms). But despite all those potentially fraudulent votes, you end up being able to count the number of fraudulently votes cast in one of those two manners on your fingers.

The manpower requirements are too much and the penalties too harsh to try to alter an election in this manner. The fraudulent votes always end up being one-offs and not organized voter fraud. grin

Some states have a free ID provision. Of course, you have to prove you are poor and then try to get to the DMV, which the right wing always uses as a poster child for incompetent government, but, which is now, suddenly, a beacon of efficiency, and get the ID card. Figure half a day, during work hours. No big deal. And, if you are 75 and disabled and don't have a birth certificate? Piece of cake!

Gotta stop those dozen or so scattered folks from fake voting each election!

Another in depth follow up on the Maine situation by Maddow. I'm sure from her vantage point she wants to bring down the Republicans, but she has overwhelming ammo and justification here. From my POV I despise the entire establishment because it is glaringly obvious that the vast majority of them are career criminals whose only difference between petty criminals in jail and them is that they were smart enough to get politically connected.

As far as I am concerned you can start building the gallows for the establishment criminals now. plain

Quite frankly, as someone who supports Ron Paul's tactic of completely ignoring popular vote and hyjacking delegates, you really don't have much room to speak about election fraud because that's essentially what it amounts to. Watch your own vid from 8:56 forward. In Wead's own words, the popular vote "doesn't matter" and is just a "beauty contest" which he repeats over and over again.. He then goes on to justify his wrong doing by pointing the finger at Romney and his money.

Just when I'm convinced that our elections couldn't be any more of a joke, some self-serving candidate or party head uses some trick I've never heard of rolling_eyes


Maddow: Everybody's treating this like a big secret but if you and I keep talking about it people are going to end up figuring it out..
Wead: Eventually they will! [laughter]

Yes SoI, I hope people focus on that last five minutes so that they will realize that you're shilling for the corp establishment as per our last exchange.

30% do not Vote. 30% are RWNs and 30% are LWNs. 10% are Bi.


So the correct answer to me is:

Is this about Maine?

Iowa has already had to change it's winner's results as well...



And of course Ron Paul is still winning but nobody is saying anything....

Is there actual fraud going on? The stories I saw used the word "fraud" but what they described seemed more like "dumb and confusing rules". If they say votes after the 11th don't count, and then they don't count them, that doesn't seem like fraud to me.

No, the news clip said when these counties reported in (on time) they were told the numbers were already in. This is from the guy whose job is to report the numbers to the commission or whatever it is. He's told, "ok we'll correct it." And the numbers are then reported as 0. This is from a county that voted Ron Paul, and was originally tallied (erroneously) as a Romney win. The difference between a Romney win and a Romney loss in this state is something like 108 votes, so that's huge.

Yes, as noted whole areas were willfully arbitrarily changed. You can't even count this as clerical error unless you are willing to use grossly incompetent accounting practices.

Last elections had 1,5 million dead people eligible to vote and over 3 million were able to vote in several states.





That sounds more like evidence of sloppy election practices not evidence of voter fraud.I'd be interested how many votes were cast in those peoples names if you have a link?

Also a question to those who want a voters ID card...What kinda ID do you think would be sufficient to have to show to get a voters ID?

Republicans use them all the time. Remember back few years, the guy in charge of the Party's finances was convicted of stealing massive amounts from the Party? he was largely able to do so because the party had rejected all sorts of standard accounting procedures.

Same thing when the Republican official blew all that money at strip clubs. No one was keeping track.

It could be just general stupidity on the part of Republicans, but, my feeling is that that like to keep things loose and with no oversite because they ALL steal and go to strip clubs on the donor's dime.

That's why we have grifters like Gingrich and Palin doing so well with Republicans. Grifting is the whole culture. And, why not? When you have dozens of billionaires throwing money at you? I'd probably be grabbing it with both fists, too.

Creationism in the schools? Sure, sure. I'll need another couple million for my institute to get some studies and press releases going. Oh, and I could use another mill to throw into the anti-gay campaign. We need to lease a private jet to get to all the venues.

Given that culture, it doesn't surprise me at all that Republicans don't have anyone who can do an honest count.
