Has it dawned on the liberal media that neither candidate appealed to everybody? I mean, if you don’t like either candidate, you are allowed to leave it blank.
“97% voter turnout”
******************************
I do believe you need to go back into the reports and reassess how you came up with your turnout figure.
thanks
Stein has targeted about 85,000 ‘blank votes’ or ‘no-votes’. These are votes that voted but did not mark or vote for president. In other words, some voters chose not to vote for either Clinton or Trump. Many people know of such voters so it’s not surprising or unexpected.
The 85,000 votes you mention may be the 85,000 that Stein mentioned.
Trump won by about 11,000 and Stein thinks there are at least that number in the 85,000 no-votes. She wants to create a ‘hanging chad’ situation where stray marks, smudges, etc. are indicating a vote for Clinton.
Of the most liberal cities, Detroit heads up the list with 93.96% of voters casting votes for liberal candidates in the 2004 presidential election, followed by Gary, Indiana with 93.08% of the voting going to liberal presidential candidates, and Berkeley, California in third with a 92.76% total for liberals.
Other cities in the top twenty five in descending order are the following: the District of Columbia; Oakland, CA; Inglewood, CA; Newark, NJ; Cambridge, MA; San Francisco, CA; Flint, MI; Cleveland, OH; Hartford, CT; Paterson, NJ; Baltimore, MD; New Haven, CT; Seattle, WA; Chicago, IL; Philadelphia, PA; Birmingham, AL; St. Louis, MO; New York, NY; Providence, RI; Minneapolis, MN; Boston, MA; and Buffalo, NY.

The precinct in Colorado that includes Aspen had Democrat turnout of 105% and Republican turnout of 105%. I think the Republican fake votes all went to hillary too ->.
Yep, if you add up all the straight party line votes and the presidential votes you get to 1,260,350 vs. 1,139,074, that might be due to people posting both straight party tickets and presidential votes I guess, but if you go into the Detroit only figures they have. 497,045 total ballots cast vs. 446,523 votes cast for President which doesnt match with that explanation. Also Detroit has 511,786 registered voters vs. 497,045 ballots cast. That’s a 97% turnout. That along with the Free Press story about not being able to match ballots to votes cast piqued by analytical nature.
I think you’re misreading the report. Straight party line votes are a subset of the total number of votes for president, not every vote for president was part of a straight party line vote.
Ok, that makes sense, then there are practically no undervotes in Detroit, and a few more in suburban Detroit. Now that I see the numbers that makes a hell of lot more sense. I was trying to balance to total ballots. Doh!, I should remember how small Detroit has gotten.
Exactly. Totally logical. No one can add in what was not there. Highly frowned upon by the watchers, lawyers and the other party.
If someone votes straight party line and also marks in for president separately the individual is counted. Once.
“if you don’t like either candidate, you are allowed to leave it blank.”
Precisely! When I voted, I left the governor area open as I thought they were both pukes.
By the lefts logic, maybe someone could just fill it in for me.
I was so paranoid of my machine possibly flipping the vote, after hearing stories of it happening other places, I voted for only Trump.
i always write my own name in if I’m not liking of either candidate. So far, Ive never gotten more than one vote. :)
Clint asks him, "What's your game, pardner?"
The guy replies, "I make my living as a bounty hunter."
Clint says, "Dyin' ain't much of a livin'..."
These recounts are very revealing (understatement).
I have to believe that Trump hammering home at every single rally about voter fraud that it made enough of an impact to scare some folks into not cheating as much.
I am convinced had he not been so vocal about it he would have lost.
I would love to see a recount of a few Hillary states.
They’re going to try to determine voter intent on ballots that undervoted for President. Just like Florida, 2000.
Oh and by intent, we mean, clearly they meant to vote for Hillary, and just forgot.
And 97% is down from 2008’s 110% turnout....
The media said that Hillary Clinton just wasn’t able to attract as many minorities in Detroit.
