Operation Snowbird - How the Donkeys tend to steal election

Lawyer urges snowbirds to cast their votes in Florida By Mary McLachlin

Palm Beach Post Staff Writer

Sunday, September 19, 2004

BOCA RATON— In the muddled aftermath of Election 2000, Lawrence Caplan lost a legal fight and learned an important political lesson at the hands of none other than Vice President Dick Cheney:

You can live in one state and vote in another.

Caplan, a tax and corporate lawyer, has turned that lesson into Operation: Snowbird, an Internet tool designed to make a difference in the election of 2004 — if Democratic voters in New York and New Jersey respond to it.

All they have to do, according to Caplan's Web site, www.operationsnowbird.com, is switch their registrations to Florida, where their votes are more likely to be needed by the Kerry-Edwards ticket than in the deep "blue" states up north. (The last day to register for the Nov. 2 election is Oct. 4.)

New York went for Gore-Lieberman by more than 1.7 million votes, while the official margin for Bush-Cheney in Florida was 537. If only 600 of the 2.2 million votes cast for the Democratic ticket in New York had been cast in Florida, according to the Snowbird site, the state's electoral votes and the presidency would have gone to Al Gore.

There already was one New Yorker being prosecuted for voting twice isn't there?

I think that they got a couple in the last 2002 election.

Since posting my earlier reply, I have come up with a plan.

The conservatives in Floriduh need to come up with a pool of money and pay a bounty to anyone who can document a snowbirder who votes twice and is convicted of voter fraud.

Several thousand $'s of such reward money potential in each key Snowbird area might scare these old rats away.

The RATS are a bunch of criminals. This isn't the only way they're trying to steal the election. My biggest fear is that President Bush will win legally, but the RATS will have all the 'extra' votes come in from illegal voters and Kerry will win in the end. I don't know if President Bush would fight him on it.

The biggest ace in the hole for us is that Hillary will do something to sink Kerry for us. She wants to run in 08 and as long as Kerry is there, she can't.

This requires a federal investigation.

The MUST prosecute those who vote in both places.

FL has a consent decree giving the feds total authority to investigate FL elections.

See my reply #24 on this thread.

Maybe a bounty on double dipping snowbirds might make some of them to back off.

Also, letters to editors that such double voting is an act of treason against those who legally vote once might stir up enough sentiment.

This really concerns me. Just when you think this party is corrupt, they prove themselves to be even more corrupt.

They'd better watch out. Those Republicans running Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties will prosecute two-time voters!

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Democrats John Kerry and John Edwards, on their first trip together to the state that narrowly put President Bush in the White House after a disputed recount in 2000, promised on Thursday that "every vote is going to be counted" this year.

The presidential candidate told thousands of screaming supporters gathered in an airport hanger in Broward County, a region critical to the recount, that he's discovered that Edwards' two young children, ages 6 and 4, were "good at math."

"Those kids really know how to count," Kerry said. "I've given them a special duty in this election. We're sending Jack and Emma Claire down there to help those Republicans in West Palm Beach count those votes." As the crowd erupted, Kerry boomed: "I've got news for you. In 2004, not only does every vote in Florida count but every vote is going to be counted." AP Story June 8, 2004

The OperationSnowbird.com website should be thoroughly reviewed by all in this forum.

It's a real stinker.

New Yorkers who have dual residency in Florida are voting twice - once via absentee ballot in NY State, while actually voting in the voting booth in Florida! This has been going on for years!!

My Little Letter to him at both addresses....

Enjoy,

To the lawyer......

I just went to your site, and what a joke....

In case you don't realize it, there is a poll today that says kerry is ahead by only 5 points in New york....

What are you going to tell the snowbirds now.....to switch back again? I wonder how many will vote twice, like the democratic crooks they may be.

Kerry will lose in Florida, in my opinion, and there is nothing you or your lawyer pathetic john john's can do about that. People are a lot smarter than the morons at the dnc think they are.

And people know slimeball lawyers when they come across them... And that is what kerry and edwards are, slimeball lawyers that don't arise to the level of being called an Attorney at Law

Sounds like more michael mooron stuff to me....

I also took great pleasure in posting your information elsewhere, you know like Freerepublic, that bastion of conservative NEWS that PROVED beyond a reasonable doubt that rather had forged documents.

SO go get your UN observers ready for FloriDUHHHHH!!!, and ready the lawsuits that you may have written already.... And see you in four years because this one is over, and that fat lady is about to sing.....

By the way, everything in this email is only my opinion or meant as satire, so go sue the Vice President or something again.... You really need a life pal....

Have a day,

The RNC needs to put up a couple of billboards and run some radio reminding people that it is a felony to vote in tow places in the same election.

I read on another thread sometime back that the election officials in FL don't have access to voter rolls in NY or any other state so they have no way to know if a voter is registered to vote in two states.

BTTT this needs to be on everyone's radar. American soldiers and sailors, and the right wing, can do this too. And SHOULD. PLEASE WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE--they're trying to steal Florida AGAIN!
