What Al Franken's Election Tells Us

Fox News ^ | July 14, 2010 | John R. Lott Jr.

For those who claim that vote fraud isn't a problem, Al Franken's election to the Senate demonstrates not only that vote fraud exists but also that it can alter elections and indeed the laws of the country.

Murderers, rapists, and robbers may not be the people we want providing the crucial votes that determine what America's laws should be.

[RC2]

It tells me that elections can and do get fixed and the law of the land will do nothing about it.

[MileHi]

Thanks for the post, and for your body of work!

[Tzimisce]

Unless they’re going to throw Franken out of office, this is just an interesting story.

My guess - nothing will come of this fraud.

Crime pays if you have big rich liberal friends.

[clamper1797]

That a large percentage of Minnesota voters are imbeciles

[umgud]

A small percentage of fraud is tolerable(?) until the vote is close.

[ozzymandus]

Is there anybody who did not know this was another stolen election??

[bikerman]

Nothing to see here,move along just another Democrat business as usual.

[NormsRevenge]

As a Native Minnesotan, now living in occupied California, it is indeed a sad day when elections are stolen in front of all and no one seems to care.

It leaves a sour taste in people’s mouths and brings into serious question the integrity of the state that governs and effectively condones the theft.

[a fool in paradise]

It shows us that the courts are corrupt.

Al Franken was “selected not elected”. He never did have a majority.

Stolen election. The media yawned.

Rats stole the Senate fillibuster proof majority HOW many times?

Bought off Jumpin Jim.

Changed the laws regarding Ted Kennedy’s seat.

Courts handed Franken a seat.

[TMSuchman]

This tells me that the democr@ps will lie,cheat,even break the law in order to achieve their ends!

Where is my torch & pitch fork, somebody heating up the tar, who has the feathers!

Absolutely! Haven't you learned anything yet?
The left learned that lesson many, many years ago.

What Al Franken's Election Tells Us

That a majority of Minnesotans are stupid...........

[cherry]

its NOT the murderers and rapists.....

does anybody bother to look at election charts???

it was the stupid third party voters that elected Freakin....they also elected Ventura and Clintoon too....

they are just so damn smarter than anybody and boy are they going to show that Republican party and elect some unknown with little chance at winning and whalaaaa....they get the rat leftist elected....

IIRC...there were some such 450,000 such voters in Minn that elected Freakin....so look in the mirror Minn.....

I live here in eastern Washington and the county Pub party got taken over by Paulists and they wouldn't fund mccain/PALIN campaign posters, etc.....

arrogant idiots all......

ONLY the "Chickens" have the feathers.
We'll just have to use lots of Tar.

Some are brain dead, some are dead men walking and some are dead, dead.

Don't blame the voters. Blame the voting system. Simple plurality voting is idiotic -- and we use it everywhere.

[Red Badger]

They elected pro-wrestler, Jesse “The Body” Ventura as Governor and a second rate comic as a Senator. What more evidence is needed?............

[mojitojoe]

Exactly and until there are term limits and they don’t get that big fat 100% salary retirement, there will never be honest men and women representing us. It has become a joke. Face it.
