Two former state representatives are competing for an open Minnesota Senate seat in the suburban southeast metro district. Residents there said its the most attention and spending they have ever seen in a local legislative race. It is one of two contentious and high-stakes special elections on Monday, both to replace lawmakers who resigned after sexual harassment scandals, and which stand to test whether the Minnesota DFL can capture the same political momentum that Democrats have been riding to win recent special elections in other states.

Two special elections are taking place in MN today. As has been typical of these, there has been hardly a mention in the news. These are being hidden by the media and pushed on the left blogosphere in hope of depressing GOP turnout and pushing Rat turnout.
Freepers in MN, vote TODAY! Get the word out to your friends and family. Dont let the Rats steal these seats then create a narrative in the news tonight.

One is a Democrat seat and one is a GOP seat. No polls, no word on the street. We need to get our people out to vote because turnout in these things has been averaging 10-15%.
A few hundred votes makes a huge difference.

You are 100% that individual votes mean more in these elections. So why would Paul Ryan, who is from this state, pass the demoralizing, back-stabbing, treasonous, budget-busting deal which will suppress GOP turnout everywhere.
I think that Republicans will get slaughtered in November now, BECAUSE THEY ARE SO STUPID AND DON’T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT MY KIDS AND GRANDKIDS. Everyone with half a brain knows that Democrats are evil, but our side is depressed, and motivation to vote will be low.
I hope I am wrong.

Paul Ryan is from Wisconsin, not Minnesota. Close but no cigar.

To win in Minnasotacommiestan WOULD BE A MASSIVE VICTORY. Everything I read about that state is that it is the MOST leftist, communist, socialist state in the union. Looking at their past history of governors, Jessie the Body Ventura, and senators, the piece of scum who was said to be a comedian, but I never heard a word out of his filthy mouth that was funny, which they need to replace now, shows just how WEIRD this state is when it comes to elected officials out of that commie state.

Watch the LIVE VOTE RETURNS.
IF THE LIVE VOTE COUNT TOTALS START GOING
DOWN, YOU KNOW
"FRACTION MAGIC" IS BEING USED !
DemocRATS will NEVER leave elections in the hands of the voters again, after Trump won !
STEALING ELECTIONS WITH COMPUTERS and
Technology Cybercrimes, watch Bloomberg's
Digital Defense November 3, 2016 (19:40).
To better understand
"THE MASTER KEY" to stealing elections with computers, watch:
I'LL
NEVER TRUST ANOTHER COMPUTER COUNTED ELECTION AGAIN !
Things have changed!
Bennie Smith, a Memphis computer programmer, discovered HOW this is done through a
" ... a GEMS tabulatorfor Global Election Management Systemwhich is a personal computer installed with Diebold software that sits in a windowless room in the countys election headquarters.
The tabulator is the brains of the system.
It monitors the voting machines, sorts out which machines have delivered data and which havent, and tallies the results.
As voting machines check in and their votes are included in the official count, each machines status turns green on the GEMS master panel.
A red light means the upload has failed.
At the end of Memphiss election night in October 2015, there was no indication from the technician running Shelby Countys GEMS tabulator that any voting machine hadnt checked in or that any votes had gone missing, according to election commission e-mails obtained by Bloomberg Businessweek.
Yet as county technicians followed up on the evidence from Smiths poll-tape photo, they discovered more votes that never made it into the election night count, all from precincts with large concentrations of black voters. ... "
Diebold Election Systems changed its name in 2006 to
Premier Election Solutions.
Bloomberg's article titled
How to Protect Against Election Day Hacking gives more proof of this by Memphis computer programmer Bennie Smith.
"... The method Smith used to catch the problem should be a playbook for any candidate, party or concerned citizen worried about the accurate tallying of their votes:Smith snapped some pictures of printed voting tallies (known as poll tapes) at a high-turnout polling location and then compared the results there to the electronic tabulations.
This is a very good, if labor-intensive, way to check to ensure that votes are being counted correctly.
Smith has created a proof-of-concept program called Fraction Magic, showing how corrupt officials could tamper with GEMS to manipulate election outcomes.

There is no excuse for this back-stabbing, sickening budget “deal”. Face it; most Republicans despise anyone who believes in stewardship of our economy.
Slogan: “$20T debt is just the beginning. You ain’t seen nuthin’ yet!”
Actually, what we may well see is a second Great Depression. This budget will serve as a morale killer for GOP voters, and I predict, sadly, that we will be Swamped in November.

Thanks. I know he’s from Janesville, with wife Janna and two daughters. I did not need to look that up! lol
My brain f*rt on Ryan does not negate the truth of what I stated.

Trump agreed to it and signed it. Considering that the budget is first proposed by the White House, shouldn’t Trump share the blame? After all, Trump did not campaign much on reducing the debt and certainly hasn’t mentioned it much while in office. He was predicted to be a big spender and he is.

Minn is not the most leftist, communist socialist state in the union. Not by any measure. Trump almost won the state and they have had a number of Republican senators. It is turning more conservative.

The articles I read said they were. You have your picks. I went with what I wrote. Explain the gov and senator they elected that I mentioned. At least my state did not elect Gomer Pile as a senator even tho he was born in this state!
