What percentage of the absentee’s are “D” or “R” ???

Wrong question.

How many are named Micky Mouse, Donald Duck, John Smith I, II, II, VI, and the V all living communally in what appears to be a vacant lot in Downtown Columbus?

Good question. I think any ballot can be challenged.

They also state they will give you a provisional ballot if you get an absentee ballot, then decide instead to go to the polls. They will cross check ( I hope)

If the party id favored the Dems, it would have been in the article.

I just got my notice that I’m to appear for jury duty today. I wonder how many of these people who registered multiple times used their own names, multiple times. I also wonder how often they will be called for jury duty.

I wonder about cross-checking, too. All we can do is hope.

I’m traveling next week for work so I have my ballot right here on my desk to be mailed tomorrow. No chads here - we get to fill in the oval with a number 2 pencil ;)

I understand lots of voter fraud is done by corrupt precinct workers. At the end of the day, they vote for the no shows.

More voters registered in Cuyahoga County than there are eligible voters. Announced on the radio two weeks ago.

Cuyahoga county, and particularly Cleveland, East Cleveland, and possibly Shaker Heights, is full of hard-left democrats. It is borderline mafia the way the party controls that county. I can believe that there are more registered voters than there are actual people eligable.

I know a few of the old-time democrats there - I would think that they're disgusted as to what the party has become, but I'm not sure that it bothers them. They seem more concerned with who brings home the bacon than anything else.

hope the system works the way it is supposed to - and that the attempt to illegally vote is recorded and possible prosecution pursued!!

That's a possibility, but I would hope there's some sort of "two-person" rule when it comes to accessing the machines or the ballots.

Absentee ballots are sold like a commodity.

How much will you pay for 200 ballots from a homeless shelter?

In 2004, over 5.6 people voted in Ohio. My understanding is that in 2004 about 8 million people (give or take) were registered to vote in Ohio.

Even for a high interest battleground state like Ohio, I am skeptical that turnout will reach 80% of registered voters.

A VERY TERRIFYING POINT!!:

Look at the Tremendous Amount of Power Bugeyes Piglousy
has amassed where she, with her Propaganda Media, has brought Our Government to a Bitter, Raucous Stalemate with a 6% Approval Rating and she was elected with ONLY 149,000 Moronic, Insane, Immoral Voters from San Francisco!
Imagine what the B*t*h will be able to do, if Saddam Obama HUSSEIN is by some atrocity, elected to be President!:-(
HELL will look like a better place to live than Here!
MAY GOD ANSWER OUR PRAYERS AND SAVE AMERICA!!

Remember that if Obama is Elected, William Ayers will be His Chief of Staff!
