Unless they’re absentees, then they’re trash. period.
Oh, you’re absolutely correct. The thing is, they’ve already discarded the rules. They’re just selectively applying them and - surprise, surprise - they seem to be doing so in a way that helps Franken.
Yup, I sat and watched them on the webcast determine that no. 1 was a vote for Franken and decided that this is the end of the Republic.
Its time to take the gloves off and sue to get entire Minneapolis precincts taken out because of rampant fraud. This will require a microscopic look at the voter rolls and verifying their addresses.
I’ve been meaning to download all of them for a potential statistical analysis of the “questionable” votes to see if they do indeed make the difference. (I believe they will.)
I predict fecAl Franken by at least 200 “votes”. It doesn’t take much intellect to see this is in the bag for him. Republicans will whine about it, but will in the end do nothing. But, shame on those who voted for him.
God bless you and welcome home.
What can we do? I don’t live in Minnesota. I can’t force them to follow the laws. All I can do is sit here and take the data that’s made available to me (at great presonal inconvenience) and try to show it to anybody who will look.
We’re not powerless, but we’re close.
Thank you. There are still thousands of people without power in southern NH. I live north of where all the trouble is.
Of course they will count until Franken wins. After all, he is the most qualified. A has been commedien who never was funny......perfect Democratic candidate
Well one thing I can conclude from looking at those two samples of disputed ballots: some people are really just too STOOOPID to vote!!
Both ballots show a serious lack of the kind of simply blackened oval that the instruction at the top indicates is the way to indicate one’s vote for each chosen candidate.
But I agree that the one “for” Coleman is more obviously for Coleman than the one claimed for Franken.
Disgraceful.
The problem is that they are going through the Franken challenges right now, which are mostly a sham to take Coleman votes out. Coleman had to do essentially the same thing and has many sham challenges to legit Franken votes.
The fact that they are counting no. 1 as a Franken vote is definitely a new vote for Franken since nobody in their right mind would ever count that as anything but an over-vote previously. Coleman is going to have run up a huge lead to survive the review of his challenges
“Currently, Coleman is up by 358.”
From what I have heard, Coleman gains votes with each day’s count.
who designed these ballots? what a lousy design..
My 5 year old can fill in an oval better than that. These voters are barely functional idiots.
However, if they vote for a Democrat in any state, including Minnesota, then their vote counts.
This is the big city Democrat machine politics approach to voting. At this level it is very difficult to defeat these people because we are playing their game on their court.
The only way we can win is if we post a sufficiently high ballot total on the machines on election day so that they cannot manipulate the recount or absentee/emergency ballots.
This travesty is an excellent example of the results of why the lefties attacked Diebold and the computerized voting machines. They wanted a paper trail that they could manipulate for their own purposes. In the automated process they cannot fix the process as they have on many manual voting machines (Shoup, etc) by either front end loading them or blocking off the lever of the opposition.
Fortunately for our side there may be additional elections, and there most certainly will be a census taken in 2010 which will show great growth in Red states than Blue states and thus will lead to a Congressional District/Electoral vote alignment toward those states. This I suspect, and hope, will result in a restoration of control of the House to GOP hands, and the election of a conservative Republican president in 2012 provided only registered Republicans are allowed to vote in the primaries and caucuses.
