Haley Barber and Karl Rove are smiling this morning.
It is my understanding that MS law prohibits those who voted in the Democratic primary to also vote in the Republican run off. I hope there is a review of those that voted to see if there are any overlapping names between the two. If there are more than 6,000 such overlapping names, I would say that would be very solid grounds for a lawsuit.
Reminds me of how Murkowski won her write-in campaign in Alaska. Republicans didn’t want her, so ‘Rats voted for her to stop Miller. I would not vote for this scumbag if I lived in MS. When people decide to burn bridges, they should pay the price for that decision.
Look. I am upset by this result as much as anyone. However, it’s an idiotic open Primary. There is nothing to contest. The nitwits in the GOP let this happen. They could have set up a closed Primary system but didn’t.
Further, the sore loser law probably even prevents a write in. Now I’d write him in in a heartbeat if I could vote in MS. But, sadly, we were gamed by the GOPe. It’s old political “dirty tricks” but that doesn’t make them illegal. I’m open to any facts that say that it was, but I don’t see any. What I see is a bunch of Libtard blacks saving a RINOs a**.
I thought McDaniel was protesting the results, and looking into whether or not the Dems in the run off voted in the first?
I want to repeat an idea I had:
When GOP or a RINO send envelopes for donations, return them empty except a piece of paper with “Remember Mississippi” printed in big letters.
That way they get the message and have to pay someone to open the envelope.
Everyone who thinks this stuff needs to stop should vote for the Democrat in the general election. Mark you calendars, I just said to vote for a Democrat.
Cochran’s actions were DESPICABLE.
But I agree, run as a write-in so TEA Party Types do not have to vote for a RINO or RAT.
Anybody interested in letting the Republican National Committee know what they think: http://www.gop.com/contact-us/
Only takes a minute and a little better than doing nothing.
A protest wont help anything. If Mc Daniel wants to be viable in the future, he should accept his defeat and be graceful towards Cochran. The reason Cochran won is because he had the Barbour Political Machine Behind him and they knew how to game the system. They followed all the rules and McDaniel as a “roookie” got caught by surprise. If the Republicans want to change the rules to a closed primary, they should do just that. In the meantime, the rules are what they are.
Well, it was probably 5,000 Democratic voters each voting in 7 different districts...
Let’s play What If Republicans Did This To A Democrat? Do you think there would be calls for a DoJ investigations?
In hope that McDaniel runs as an independent write in candidate.
It's time for an opposition party.
More than any other election outcome coming up in November, my number-one hope and desire is that disgusting bastard Cochran loses.
For a GOP-er to actually court and scare up black Dem votes by saying Thad will “protect Obama” and “protect welfare” from “racist” tea-partiers, is as low as it gets. This, from a bloomin’ Republican! Damn these scumbags to the darkest and hottest corners of hell. These people are every bit an enemy as the marxist Dems.
Agenda-driven socialists unite! (they’re getting nervous ALERT!)
Ballot box BUMP! (more ballot boxes ahead)
BIG GOVERNMENT IS CRONY SOCIALISM
“We don’t leave our people on the field.”
(1) The republican party did that to republican voters.
(2) I don’t like this clown comparing thad Cochran to one of our military personnel being left in the battle field. Thad is not worthy.
Shouldn’t this be a rather simple matter to investigate? Couldn’t the McDaniel people request a list of all Democrats who voted in the Primary, and compare it with a list of all Democrats who voted in the runoff? With a team of volunteers, the 25,000 to 35,000 Democrat voters who voted in the runoff could be checked in just a couple of days.
