Never let a crisis go to waste.

The dems know they are going to loose big time in Nov., so they are simply using a little trick called “Heightened Public Awareness” to make a claim of Repub voter fraud to explain their loss.

The dems pretty much had the same plan for 2006, only in 2006 it was supposed to be “VOTOR DISENFRANCHISMENT” with the Hispanic vote. The whole scam fell apart.

"it seems Rawl won 84 percent of the absentee ballots in Lancaster county, yet the unknown Alvin Greene carried the county 17 percentage points on election day. "

Uh, Greene had no campaign structure to get out the absentee vote. The other guy was a connected 'rat and could have easily targeted known party regulars to get "proper" absentee ballots.

Hey, maybe the voters thought they were voting for LOU Rawl(s).

Now’s the time to figure it out and get it corrected. I’m sure this is part of their secret plan to win and I’m sure it was a big part of 0’s win. They’re all frauds.

The most likely scenario is that absentee voters have to be highly motivated to obtain, fill out, and send back an absentee ballot. Highly motivated people are more likely to be knowledgeable about the issues on the ballot, and perhaps even be highly motivated to vote for a specific candidate. Thus it’s not surprising that there would be a decided preference against the unknown candidate.

The rest of the Rat voters simply have to drag themselves to the polls and press the button for the first Rat in the list, similar to the amount of effort and thinking they utilize in pressing the button for the big “D” in a general election. Minimum motivation and no knowledge required. What we witnessed here is the voting results of a drone population (or as Ayn Rand puts it, leeches and moochers).

Thus on one hand, we have a relatively motivated and educated population voting for someone they have heard of against someone they have never heard of, versus a population that simply votes for the first person in a list. The explanation for the differential results is really quite easy to explain without resorting to conspiracy theories. Always keep in mind Hanlon’s Razor: “Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.”

Now the Pubs should be able to take advantage of this by always finding someone named Aaron Aaronson to run in the primaries against Rat incumbents representing districts in which the bulk of the Rat voters are ignorant and uneducated (which as it turns out is the case in most Rat House districts).

The Dims were just practising their election fraud skills, leading up to the general election.

Seems ACORN might have gotten more sophisticated??

Written names of Minnie & Mickey Mouse on registration isn’t working this time around.

My my why are people so dense? Of course Rawl won the absentee ballot. Anybody taking the trouble to vote absentee likely knew the candidates and knew who they were voting for. They are hoping against hope that they find something, anything, but the truth that their voters vote for the first name on the ballot or whatever name they like better and that no thought whatsoever goes into the process. The only other choice is that the DNC set this guy up so they could call into question electronic voting.

And I agree with your disagreement! I would certainly back such a test to determine a person’s ability to understand the issues and vote based on something other than pure emotion. Sadly, I don’t see such a thing coming to happen in the America of today. There are several things that I would impose were I absolute ruler, the system we have makes it all but impossible to get them now.
