UPDATE: VOTES 'FOUND ON MACHINES' IN PHILLY BEFORE POLLS OPEN
Before voting even began in Philadelphia -- Republican poll watchers believed they found nearly 2000 votes already planted on machines scattered in heavy-minority locations throughout the city.
Republican poll watchers claim:
One incident occurred at the SALVATION ARMY, 2601 N. 11th St., Philadelphia, Pa: Ward 37, division 8.
Pollwatchers uncovered 4 machines with planted votes; one with over 200 and one with nearly 500...
A second location, 1901 W. Girard Ave., Berean Institute, Philadelphia, Pa, had 300+ votes already on 2 machines at start of day.
ANOTHER INCIDENT: 292 votes on machine at start of day; WARD/DIVISION: 7/7: ADDRESS: 122 W. Erie Ave., Roberto Clemente School, Philadelphia, Pa..
ANOTHER: 456 votes on machine at start of day; WARD/DIVISION: 12/3; ADDRESS: 5657 Chew Ave., storefront, Philadelphia, Pa...
MORE...
The Kerry Campaign says reports of votes already on machines are 'false.'
"Serious news will not appear first on the DRUDGE gossip website," senior Kerry adviser Joe Lockhart told reporters.
Officially, election officials explain the discrepancy is being caused by a number showing how many times various machines have been used.
But officials could not explain why used machines in other locations were reportedly 'clean.'
Elsewhere, a gun was purposely made visible to scare poll watchers at Ward 30, division 11, at 905 S. 20th St., Grand Court. Police were called and quickly surrounded the location...
Developing...
Has anybody....SEEN EDWARDS???
Votes from when? If they are left over from 2000 this can only be good for us :-)
Well, at least it was caught. It seems the old DEM tricks are being anticipated.
i am more embarrassed by my city every day. this is such a bunch of crap. WE WILL NOT LET THEM STEAL THIS ELECTION.
Now is the time for the Bush administration to show us if they really want to win.
The EFF BEE EYE should be at the polling place IMMEDIATELY!!!
I reported to the DOJ
"Did Philly purchase some used voting machines from Chicago?"
No, they purchased some used gravestones from Chicago....
Must have been some of the dead people that always vote there.
Troll incoming....go to DEFCON 1
Well...the election workers did vote before the rest of us at my polling place...
Did the officials delete the votes?
Yeah, the dead must have been allowed to vote on Halloween. The Rendell machine is as corrupt as ever! No ballot box they can't stuff?
Kerry's tradition on election day is to is "Chowder"
My house will be a polling place (in fact they are setting up in my garage right now -CA) and there have been five polling machines sitting in my garage for two weeks.
Not sealed shut, just sitting there and anyone could open them up and tamper with them. I'm honest and would never do anything with them, but i'm if someone wanted to mess around with them they could.
Hmmm, what time do the polls open in the afterlife so the dead Dems can vote?? Is Afterlife standard time ahead or behind Eastern Standard Time?
All Rats, I'd wager...
I agree. Fraud stories are bound to pop up all day as the Republicans expose the trickery of the past.
Predicition: We will hear from Jesse Jackson before noon if they are being successful in halting much of the fraud.
