This GOP-led voter suppression effort should produce in investigation on the order of those conducted for the JFK and MLK assassinations, Watergate, the Challenger disaster and the 9-11 cockup. This geezer has voted for 50-plus years and I know about LBJ and Box 13. No contest. This is criminal perversion of our democracy. Chances are we would invade another country that pulled this crap.

Little problem with your rant - if a person is not an eligible voter, there by definition can't be voter 'suppression' of that voter. 45046. concerned - 11/7/2012 12:19:34 AM And most countries most certainly 'pull that crap'. Didn't you see my link about the UN observers? 45047. concerned - 11/7/2012 12:21:05 AM I'll wager Democrats suppressed far more votes of military personnel than anything rjb and jah can accuse Republicans of. Since it doesn't fit their partisan narrative though, they don't want to hear about it. 45048. alistairconnor - 11/7/2012 12:24:25 AM My two cents worth : I heard this from a friend :
"Numerous reports from Austin TX friends who voted, then went to the "final review page" and saw that the straight Democratic ticket they had voted had switched the vote for Obama to Romney without disturbing any of the other votes. This is being looked into, hopefully, as it was reported." 45049. concerned - 11/7/2012 12:49:26 AM Drudge is calling it about 190 electoral votes for each right now. 45050. concerned - 11/7/2012 12:53:56 AM Re. 45048 -
Regardless of the source of the allegation, it should be meticulously checked out, and if there is any intent found to defraud, suspend or rig, indict, convict and sentence. 45051. concerned - 11/7/2012 12:54:35 AM Re. 45048 -

45052. robertjayb - 11/7/2012 12:55:51 AM That is a hazard of straight-ticket voting. The ballot can be fiddled. If this was deliberate there should be prosecution. But it seems foolish to me to think that any possible amount of ballot tampering would alter the outcme of Obama v. Romney in Texas. Sad to say but my state is red, red, red. No way Romney loses Texas. 45053. concerned - 11/7/2012 1:00:47 AM Bob Dylan predicts an 0bama landslide. Play that harmonica, Bob. 45054. concerned - 11/7/2012 1:02:28 AM rjb -
My state is at least as blue as yours is red. I might just as well have voted for 0bama, for all the difference it makes. But I did *Not* vote straight ticket, IAC. 45055. concerned - 11/7/2012 1:04:55 AM I think a number of Democrats are good candidates for their various offices. The pernicious effect of Democrat Party armtwisting of Democrat politicians who step out of line actually is suppressing the number of Democrats I vote for. 45056. concerned - 11/7/2012 1:08:11 AM Drudge just moved Ohio from '0bama' to 'toss up'. 45057. judithathome - 11/7/2012 1:39:07 AM Drudge? Are you kidding me?

Nobody else is posting much of anything that I've found so far online.
Anyhoo, I'm about to sign off for a while. It appears that early 0bama voters put in a big surge between the debates and today, but that Romney voters will be playing catch up for the rest of the evening in most states as they leave work, etc. 45059. concerned - 11/7/2012 1:56:37 AM Letterman made a joke about the Supreme Court 'deciding' this election for Romney a la 2000. There may be something to that since if the USSC has to intervene, Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy and Alito probably will find some way to coerce Roberts to vote with them to shut down 0bama to make up for his healthcare decision. Jes' funnin'! 45060. iiibbb - 11/7/2012 2:29:50 AM

45061. judithathome - 11/7/2012 2:30:49 AM OMG.... 45062. robertjayb - 11/7/2012 2:58:07 AM WTF... 45063. judithathome - 11/7/2012 3:10:11 AM Ya got me.....
