Michelle Obama Predicts ‘Election Could Come Down to Those Last Few Thousand Votes’
CNS News ^ | May 2, 2012 | Fred Lucas

(CNSNews.com) – First lady Michelle Obama told supporters in the key battleground state of New Mexico on Tuesday that the 2012 presidential election could go down to the wire.

Polls have shown a tight race between President Barack Obama and his presumptive Republican opponent Mitt Romney, a former Massachusetts governor. A Gallup poll taken April 26-30 found the race tied at 46 percent, while a Rasmussen poll from April 29-May 1 found Obama had a three-point lead, 47 percent to 44 percent.

On Tuesday, Michelle Obama was speaking at a campaign event at the Los Poblanos Ranch in Albuquerque, N.M.. She encouraged supporters to make phone calls, knock on doors and register new voters.

“If you have any doubt about the difference that you will definitely make, I just want you to remember that, in the end, this election could come down to those last few thousand votes,” the first lady said. “It's happened before. It could come down to those last few people we register. It could all come down to those last few people that we help get to the polls on November the 6th.”

More likely that it will not be that close either way.

They are showing how worried they are by saying how close it will be!

Fortunately for Obama, those last few thousand votes will both be counted by SEIU and cast by the same people - on behalf of the Democrat Party's most loyal voters:

Uh, huh. Those absentee ballots you pull out of your fat a$$, MO? That’s usually how it works.

NM is very good at finding late ballot boxes “under the last row of pews” - and LOOK at THAT! EVERY vote in there is for the Democrat!

NM is very good at finding late ballot boxes “under the last row of pews” - and LOOK at THAT! EVERY vote in there is for the Democrat, which means the Democrat wins by 10 votes!

in the end, this election could come down to those last few thousand votes,” the first lady said.

And that's why Holder's Voting Rights Section has standing orders to make sure -- by any means necessary -- those "few thousand votes" are for Obama!

TRANSLATION: “The only way we can lose is if we underestimate how many fraudulent votes we need to manufacture, like we did in 2000.”

That’s code for saying “we already have the false ballots ready to go for whatever states need them.”

Mark my words, this will make Florida 2000 look like two 6 year old boys having an argument.

Essentially, she’s signalling the dems will have the final say on what the vote tallies will be. Cities will continue to report last.

This is why there is a push for same-day voter registration.

Meeewwchell is counting on a lot of dead people voting and all the other dastardly fraudulent antics the Dems will do, regardless of legality. To the Progressives and Liberals, the ends do truly justify the means! One has to question and look back on history to see if the hate level was this great prior to the Civil War.

"Michelle Obama Predicts: ‘Election Could Come Down to Those Last Few Thousand Votes’"

Which, of course, will be found in the trunk of a Democratic election worker's car (Washington Governor's race, 2008) or in a closet in a heavily union and Democratic county (Minnesota Senate race, Franken versus Coleman, 2008) a couple days after the election.
