"I only wish that the ACTUAL election results for the past 100 years would be revealed by some Miracle. I'm not sure the Democrats would have even 80% of their current seats."

Good point. Voter fraud has been an effective mainstay in the dem campaign playbook for decades.

I've always said I'll vote Republican until the day I die, after that, I'll probably vote Democrat.

The media is unashamedly on their side. Recall the Jim Jeffords news conference where he announced his important defection. There was a spontaneous standing ovation... however, the public was not invited to the announcement, since the room was only large enough for the media... that was the impartial press corps showing their joy at the switch.

Throughout the state, there are massive voter registration drives being conducted by both political parties, tribal governments and national organizations. Nichols currently is the only person charged.

I agree both parties need to have voter registration drives. What I was trying to point out was that the way the story was written, the implication is that both voter registration drives were fraudulant but only the dems had been caught.

I don't accept this assumption that these drives are by definition fraudulant.
