The New York City Board of Elections is probing charges that hundreds of New Yorkers illegally double-voted in the city and Florida in the 2000 presidential race - and is vowing to prosecute, The Post has learned.

The bipartisan board voted unanimously to act after The Post reported that an ongoing Republican National Committee study found that hundreds of New Yorkers were recorded as illegal double-dippers. The number has now risen to at least 402.

I think this is just the tip of the iceberg. 100% of the cheats in 2000 were RATS. Gore's actual popular vote nationwide? . . . My guess is it was probably somewhere close to 80% of that commonly reported, and it could be as low as 50%.

My basis for such a claim? Nearly every RAT is a felon of one form or another; murderer, rapist, child molester, robber, burglar, doper, welfare cheat, illegal alien with terrorist connections, etc., etc. Given that, RATS would have NO qualms about cheating in an election. Dubya's victory was in reality a landslide.

Hahahaha....!
Yeah, sure.

Mark this down: NOBODY will spend a single minute in jail for voter fraud....nobody.
The corruption in the liberal parasite-controlled cities runs way, way too deep for anything serious to be done about fraud. It is a hopeless situation, and these promises to prosecute are downright insulting.

>>If registration is any guide, most New York double-dippers were Democrats

If common sense is any guide, ALL New York double-dippers were Democrats

They will all be classified as "not remembering anything" about voting twice. They cannot read directions.
Philadelphia had over 100 people vote from the same vacant lot. They do nothing.

New York never changes:

"While in Albany(1855 session),(N.Y.State Senator) Dan (Sickles) was equally, democratically, and splendidly eloquent in the matter of a bill to prevent illegal voting in the City of New York - the registry bill. He needed no prompting to attack this legislation and protect Tammany's strong hold on New York City elections, and he was appalled that the 'whole framework of this bill pre-supposes that election frauds in New York consist in illegal voting by electors.' It was electoral inspectors who were corrupt, he claimed, yet the bill sought to give electoral inspectors in New York even greater power! He argued that every voter of what he called the American Party, that is, the Know Nothings, would be duly registered without any inconvenience to himself, while other political parties 'would be obliged to depend wholly on the willingness of individuals to attend at the office of the inspectors and undergo the species of examination or trial which the inspectors are authorized by this Bill to institute.' A stranger sitting in the senate chamber in Albany and listening to the debates would have supposed that illegal voting was limited to New York, that Buffalo, Utica, Rochester, Albany contained no persons wicked enouth to violate the electoral law! They would be amazed, Dan said, that the City of Brooklyn, the second city in the state, 'has no occasion for the purifying provisions of this Bill!'

No offense, but where I live the Dems are rational, normal, decent, honest people who merely grew up worshipping FDR and such. They still vote that way out of habit. Like my Grandpa and uncle. They live their lives very conservatively, yet vote for the crooks thinking they are doing the right thing.

NY is another story, however.

I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for the NYTimes to report this.

Darn! I thought that maybe the NYT had come to its senses and done some accurate reporting.

Ahh yes. I agree with you on that.

Hearing your "not remembering anything" jolted another memory that I still retain. First of all, I know that not all "Senior Citizens" vote for Democrats. Many do, however, for various reasons. Some of the ones I have encountered personally when I have discussed this with members of my own family (or neighbors) were the following: Social Security fears, habit (as in "we all loved FDR"), and a very strange notion that they were "the little guy, and Republicans were all rich!"

While I am all for giving dignity and respect to elders, I reject out of hand the notion that some Senior Citizens wish to clothe themselves with, to wit: "We deserve it, so get out of my way."

At McDonalds, an elderly lady shoved my 6 year old daughter out of the way. Not nudged, not brushed against- S-H-O-V-E-D!

My wife was incredulous. She was met by the old woman's umbrella tip in her nose. She then shoved her way to the counter and shoved others. When the manager confronter her, she feigned memory loss.

Respect is earned, not taken.

So far, in partial checks of 11 states, the RNC has found that more than 140,000 people were registered to vote in two places - and 759 were recorded as casting two ballots.

I would like the RNC to take this statement one step further and indicate how party registration breaks down for those 140,000 people. I'm sure that the vast majority are democrats.
