Rush showed where the dimpled chads come from.
When you make a stack of punch cards, you run a wire through as deep as possible in the hole for your candidate.
If someone uses a prepunched card and votes for another candidate, the card will have two holes and be rejected as an overvoting voter. The dimple is the last card the wire did not penetrate but did "push".
In FL the core of vote fraud is the absentee ballots, which are sent to either the dead or elderly. We also have a growing homeless shelter fraud system.
ID's would help reduce lines at the polls!!!!
bttt
ID's and having to re-register to vote ever 10 years.
Dead and moved voters would automatically be migrated off the rolls.
This is how Hillary can win in 2008. We must do something about it.
BTTT
Thanks, hr....a good collection of stuff. See WA for the simple approach of just continuing to count until you win.
Here'a another Wisconsin favorite:
Alzheimer's patients. The "Social Worker" from the nursing home "assists" the Alzheimer's patient in "voting."
This is a bit more challenging, because the patient actually does exist, and lives at a verifiable address. Further, the Alzheimer's patient is not likely to have any idea whatsoever about the issues. (My mother had it--trust me...)
ftlpdx, Possible troll?
I agree. We were screwed into being a blue state.
Wow, I bet there was no left leaning bias on the part of any of these groups. NOT!
Racine County went to Bush. Look at the red/blue map and you'll see Racine is red.
Nothing will be done as long as Doyle is governor. All attempts in the past to get a handle on things have either been stymied by the democrats, either when they had a majority in the state senate or assembly or by a veto from a democratic governor.
Saving bump.
you are right. i remember being suprised by that at the time.
arbage attracts RATS.
If you don't call that tax on rental property taxation without representation, what do you call it?
I call it taxing the person who owns the business (the landlord . The students were not taxed). The person being taxed was most certainly represented. He owned the buildings and presumably lived in the area. I also call it good neighborhood defense. Rental housing nearby brings down property values.
Why do you have a problem with this?
An excellent cause.
The homeowners were the true leaders and agitators; the politicians were merely following the homeowners' lead.
About time a politician did what he was supposed to do, listen to his constituents and do their will
