The "bread and butter" 'rat vote rigging takes place in ghetto precints where the "opposite party" (Repubican) watcher is actually a 'rat stooge, registered Republican for the specific purpose of filling the role. This is a hard nut to crack. How many actual Republicans will volunteer to spend 12+ hours at a hostile ghetto precinct, where all players are dedicated 100% to turning out a 100% rat vote?
Good point.
I retreated [shame on me] from the ghetto years ago, when the indians out numbered the calvery.
Once we have all the enemy inside the big cities we can lay siege and starve them to death. ;)
That still doesn't explain the lack of a concerted nationwide response to the problem. I'm no political strategist, but it would seem that for the cost of a few major market TV ad buys, the GOP could train and fly in GOP lawyers, activists, truck drivers, ranchers... to hot spots. That's what the Dems did in the SD race on the Indian reservations last time around in the Senate.
My point, as always, is that the anger we all feel about voter fraud is futilely pointed in the wrong direction. We already know that the Dems will cheat without any sense of compunction, so griping at and about them won't do any good. Any solution is going to have to come from within the GOP leadership.
Good point. Let's send the international vote checkers to the obvious Dem precincts.
