[SE Mom]

Post what you're seeing, hearing in your district, county or state during the day and evening- anecdotal or otherwise!

GOTV!!!!!

That is the leaflet that was handed out to Allied Forces on D-Day before they launched the attack. It brings chills just reading it. Our very survival depended then on victory and it does so today. We must defeat these Marxist bastards. There is no substitute for Victory.

I was assigned to our Mission in West Berlin 1983-87 as a diplomat. I served a year in Vietnam at NSA Danang 1967-68 as a naval officer.

Just returned from voting. Overheard whispers from poll workers regarding heavy turn out. “Shows that people are aware of the issues.”

[Lazamataz]

For motivation I suggest Freepers remember Capt Evans of the USS Johnston of task force Taffy 3 during the battle of Samar.

Never knew this story. Thanks.

I am told by close relatives outside of Las Vegas in Clark County that the casino-Reid collusion is literally stealing the NV election as I type this, and that Freepers had better prepare for Reid stealing this election. God forbid.

Haven’t had a chance to go through the thread,
but hopefully this scheduling hasn’t been posted.
If it has, and someone will let me know, I’ll have it removed .. ;)

Midterm Election 2010: All Day Blogging

Excerpt:

Extensive polling leading up to election day 2010 has indicated a massive wave for the GOP in the House to take control and modest wins in the Senate where only about of a third of the seat are even part of the election, making it unlikely the GOP will take control of the Senate.

Polls are fine indicators, but the final poll, the only poll that matters or is counted, is today’s vote, the election itself.

Story on Cleveland.com says Cuyahoga County experiencing low turnout. That is good news.

Best news of the day. Thanks.

Arkansas Update [not much info yet]

As of noon, about 280,000 absentee, early, and current eligibles have cast votes.

That represents about 17.5% of the total eligible votership of 1.6 million.

Go Delaware!

Ad far as I am concerned, if John Thune can’t get Noem over the finish line, his presidential aspirations are over before they are started.

You have to deliver your electorate to be taken seriously.

There is an article at NRO about Harrahs working to pressure employees to vote for the indecent POS Reid. I just called the corporate headquarters and posted at the FR link to the story

Story link http://www.nationalreview.com/battle10/251906/collusion-harrahs-bosses-put-squeeze-employees-vote-reid-elizabeth-crum

I just called the Corporate offices in Vegas to tell then I would not be staying at any of their properties when I next go to Vegas. I mentioned the article at NRO and the emails from Reids staffers to Marybel Batjer, Harrah’s vice president of public policy and communications. The women who answered said she heard nothing about it and wasn’t pressured by anyone to vote for Reid. I asked her to see if she’s on the list they are keeping of who voted and who didn’t.

She told me people post all kinds of things on the internet that are not true. I said this was a journalist at NRO and they wouldn’t post such a charge without proof. I suggested she ask the executives at her office. Naturally she didn’t like that suggestion.

If you really want to make your objections known, call these people and give them hell.
