GOP claims bag of uncounted ballots found in Conn.
By Susan Haigh, Associated Press – 2 hrs 39 mins ago

HARTFORD, Conn. – The Republican candidate for governor in Connecticut says a bag of uncounted photocopied ballots has been found, further throwing into question the outcome of the race.

Tom Foley says the bag was found during the counting of ballots in Bridgeport, where a shortage Tuesday night forced officials to photocopy ballots. Foley says it's unclear where the ballots originated and whether they are valid. He wants them impounded.

Foley and Democrat Dan Malloy have claimed victory in Tuesday's election.

The secretary of the state said Wednesday that Malloy was the winner by more than 3,000 votes. But the tallies from Bridgeport still have not been submitted.

Bridgeport officials haven't commented on Foley's claim a bag of ballots was found.

Yeah, well, bottom line, we need to cheat too.

Yeah, well, the real bottom line is your attitude is not needed in the conservative camp.

Statements like yours are not made by true conservatives.

I have read a number of your postings leading up to the elections and what I first suspected about you and your smarmy character has become crystal clear with this posting of yours.

The answer is NEVER to cheat, and to make corruption-free elections a top priority for the Republican dominated statehouses.

No one needs the likes of you and your substantial lack of character around here.

Get lost.

Hmmm. I can't recall reading any of your comments at all. After a cursory glance at your posting history I can see that I hadn't missed anything of value.

Statements like yours are not made by true conservatives.

Oh get over yourself. You are in no position to judge who is or isn't a true conservative.

[Agamemnon]

True Conservatives don't cheat.

By your own telling, you are as inclined to cheat as any liberal Democrat or RINO is.

Get lost.

Politics is war. The other side will do whatever it takes to win, at some point we will have to do the same. When/if vote fraud finally starts costing Democrats elections, perhaps they will be more willing to work to address the problem. Get lost.

Just go away. Your posts are not interesting or entertaining in the least, and a review of your past commentary reveals you bring very little insight to the table.

As I said in my post- "IMHO they purposely did this so blank ballots could be photocopied.. So what you have is basically a formula for manufacturing votes"

Ever wonder why the Dems are always the ones calling for paper ballots? A lot easier to stuff the ballot box.

When Dems are in charge of elections......fraud is rampant!

That’s what I feared if Dem Sink beat GOP Scott.....in the FL Governor’s race.....Thanks be to God Scott beat her by 68,000 votes & no recount was required!
