Absentee ballots tainted?

[machman]

Just how Blue is Michigan? It will be blue for as long at the rats are in charge of the big cities/counties.

"Craziest thing I've ever seen," said one poll watcher. "They had 100 tables and just five poll watchers trying to monitor them. Every table had a pile of empty ballots. If the machine rejected a ballot, the workers would just take a fresh ballot, fill it in the way they thought the voter wanted (Detroit voted heavily for Kerry), and then put THAT ballot through the machine." The poll watcher also reported unsigned ballots being counted in the machines, a violation of absentee procedures.

everybody knows detroit waits to register votes last to see how many votes the dems need to swing michigan.

sheesh. whaddya think. of course they'll always be blue.

The face of Demoratic FRAUD.

With a looooong history....

Currie's problems with absentee voting go back decades. She and her late husband, Charmie Currie Jr., were charged in 1964 with conspiring to solicit 21 people to sign applications for absentee ballots and later advising them on how to mark their ballots. Currie's husband pleaded guilty to a reduced misdemeanor charge, and the prosecutor dismissed charges against Currie on grounds that "she acted out of love for her husband."

How quaint, justifying her illegal activities because she loves her husband.....

When John CONyers waved his hand, declared Detroit fraud free, then started screaming about Ohio being stolen, the republicans should have embarrassed him into silence.

Would this article ever have been written if not for the Shabazz protest?

Sadly Michigan conservatives are begining to give up on voting because it's become pointless. Nationally the republican party won't fight for us. I belive Detroit has been court ordered to register their vote count on time but simply ignored the order.

MICHIGAN - AND - PENNSYLVANIA! It will continue to be blue for as long at the rats are in charge of the big cities/counties.

Both Michigan & Pa will continue to appear to be BLUE until wimpy Republicans find the nerve to do something about it. Just hope Michael Moore isn't Secretary of State before that happens!

But then again - to question the vote in big cities would be politically incorrect (ie. racist) wouldn't it!?!

Have no fear Geoffery Figer is planning to run for Attorney General here in Michigan. I'm sure he'll help us out. LOL

Let's not forget WISCONSIN! We're BINO's as well (Blue in Name Only)

Bush - 19343 - 5.93%

Yeah. The problem is that the GOP is just too damned nice. They are also very afraid of the Sixty Minutes/MSM crowd charging them with racism. Let's face it, there's not a white city administration in America that can get away with what some Democrat blacks do.

Where's the FBI?

Grebner has studied Detroit's election results for 30 years and compiles a list of voters that he sells to political candidates. "The big thing is, these people are incompetent. They do things that don't make sense. We find things all the time that are appalling."

The Democratic party in a nutshell.

Anyone who believes incompetence is why the fraud is going on, would buy the Brooklyn Bridge.

Michigan used to go Republican most of the time...Willkie carried it in 1940 and Dewey in 1948. Kennedy won narrowly in 1960 and LBJ by a 2-1 margin in 1964, but as late as 1988 Bush carried the state easily. In 1912 it was one of only two states where Woodrow Wilson came in third (after Teddy Roosevelt and Taft).

I wonder about 1960. Was the Democratic machine in Detroit already in place, and could they have swung the state to Kennedy by dubious means? (The state then had 20 electoral votes, compared to 17 now. Kennedy's margin was less than 67,000 votes out of more than 3 million cast.)

Wonder how many union workers help with these elections.

From those numbers, Michigan went for Kerry by about 1/2 of the Detroit vote (165,707 votes). Hmm.
