ACORN did it in order to steal the elections!!!!!!!!!!

... *ahem*... now that we've gotten the obligatory rituals out of the way...

Anyone know what the level of disparity between recount/chain of custody regulations and the actual implementations thereof are in Maine?

Right now the "No on #1" group looks like they're in the only real squeaker of the day.

Theocrats just screaming their heads off deliberately lying about imaginary sexual threats to children and then just waltzing away smugly as if they'd done something wonderful...

I believe the proper term for that electronic tripe is FUBAR...

You know, that "beyond all repair" part, all the reason anyone should need to scrap all the electronics (melt 'em down and build another whoreship to join that 9/11 sacrilege) and go back to what we wisely imposed on the Japanese and the Germans after WWII, all in the name of honest, transparent elections, as are the custom in true democracies. Too bad the foxes have not only emptied the henhouse, they've somehow learned to burn it to the ground. I weep for what was once my country...

Guess I have to move back to my hometown, where you freeze your ass off but democracy still prevails.

Good story.

"Vote fraud" case that should draw some attention since the mother of the kid came to TPM and chewed everyone out asking who stole her sons vote, lol.

This appears to be another case of voting for the registered non-voter, by hack, only this dude showed up to vote. This is a huge problem, not a clerical error.

Lets say you were a certain candidate, from a certain party, and you were 5 percentage points behind. You would only need to jigger (add) 6+ votes per every 100 legit votes to recover your deficit.

Hopefully they will recover his vote and find out where it went...ha!

wow flo,i read those articles and thought,well it can't be that hard to check if the kid did request an absentee ballot....then i read nj's home page,this time it will be easy to check but after this election anyone that has ever requested an ab ballot will recieve one w/o asking?? unreal and ripe for fraud

i agree with your premis that the "mysterious they"(by hack or design we don't know) voted for the kid and then he had the audacity to show up

here is the copy and paste from nj's home page

Secretary Wells announced that New Jersey has registered 5,224,880 voters for the general election. Of this number, 1,766,669 are registered Democrats; 1,061,899 are registered Republicans; 2,393679 choose unaffiliated as their party preference, and the remaining 2,633 registered under other parties.

Secretary Wells also noted that New Jersey's County Clerks have issued 179,142 Vote by Mail ballots as of Thursday, October 29. More than 100,770 of those ballots have been returned by voters to the County Boards of Election.

Under the new Vote by Mail law signed in June, registered voters may request a mail-in ballot for an upcoming election, and receive mail-in ballots automatically for additional future elections with one application, as an alternative to voting at a polling place on a given election day. Previously, the option to vote by mail required voters to request an absentee ballot for each election.

unreal

I only have a link to incisive political punditry on the Daily Show....

Saw that one 99...funny.

Karen, if they use electronic poll books, whose to say they can't alter his registration that says he came in or requested an absentee ballot? IMO they could just say he voted. Do they use electronic signatures? Who goes back and checks that?

flo, yea silly me thinking somewhere there would be a paper trail
