“Looks like a whole lot of voters stayed home.”

I don’t buy that. I think “we” came out in droves. It wasn’t enough to counter massive fraud. We’re aware of so much cheating. I figure that’s about 1% of the cheating that actually occurred.

The GOP governors in place for the last 2-4 years bear some responsibility for not amending states’ Election Codes. The GOP governers in place as of today could get pro-active and clean up the mess, but it’s doubtful that they will. Wouldn’t matter; it’s over for America.

What? Is that real? That is incomprehensible to me. If someone had told me two days ago that turnout for Obama would be 15 million less than last time, i would have predicted a landslide up and down the ticket for Republicans.

And with all the opportunity to vote early? Why would turnout be so low? I don’t get it.

What was the difference if you stayed home and did not vote verses going all out for “the team” and voting. Apparently a win.

The question will be whom stayed home and why. Whatever the answer, the result is not going to change. The good guys lost and we are not coming back from this.

As far as the GOP goes, I am leaving. Don’t call, don’t write. Don’t worry, I am not going over to the dark side. I will just become an indy. We had it your way two cycles in a row and got beat. I am taking my marbles and going home.

So the numbers can indicate that turnout for 2012 was much better for the GOP, but perhaps many of those votes were switched to the DNC (electronically, email, other fraud)?

The numbers don’t make sense....I’d say that a lot of Repub votes went the way of the dumpster.

There are estimates that 40,000 military voters were unable to vote due to deliberate failure to provide them with absentee ballots in time. Failure attributable directly to the Obama Administration.

Polling numbers are dependent on the number of votes counted; not on the number of people who came to vote.
How many ballots were “tossed” some how?
Was there anyone actually counting the number of people who came to vote to compare with the number of votes counted? No.
