The Democrat mantra that voting fraud is rare takes another blow today with the stunning story of a GOP candidate unable to vote for himself in Cook County Illinois. The Illinois Political Review reports:
Admitting his confidence in Cook County ballot integrity is shaken, State Representative Candidate Jim Moynihan (R-56), was shocked today when he tried to cast a vote for himself and the voting machine cast it for his opponent instead.
“While early voting at the Schaumburg Public Library today, I tried to cast a vote for myself and instead it cast the vote for my opponent,” said Moynihan. “You could imagine my surprise as the same thing happened with a number of races when I tried to vote for a Republican and the machine registered a vote for a Democrat."......

Cook County has controlled voting for decades. What could possibly change now?
LIKE I SAID IN A POST YESTERDAY ... the problem is NOT voter fraud. The problem is election fraud. Why on EARTH are we, about the only ones it seems with some common sense, NOT screaming about election fraud??? These voting machines have got to go!
This is insanity.
No surprise the books are Cooked!
It’s Cook County, I’m surprised his name even appears on the ballot.
This has been going on in Cook County since at least 1960 when the election was clearly stolen that year.
The Dem vote in this country is highly concentrated in dense urban areas, where often few or no Republicans live in these inner city precincts. Often there is little or no bipartisan oversight supervising inner city polling places thus affording the Dems unlimited opportunities for cheating, fraud, and vote padding.
Moreover the Dems have a PAID GOTV army of union members which get paid to get their vote out on election day. These unions work hand in glove with the big city Democrat political machines which dominate most of our nation’s big urban areas, whereas the GOP has to rely primarily on volunteers for its GOTV efforts.
Do you trust your voting machine? After 25 years employed in DoD technical security, I do not trust mine.
All elections are questionable especially when you cannot see how the vote you cast was actually recorded..
Updated and modernized, but democrats have done this since the beginning of their party. My FIL told me how he and his union buddies helped stuff the Illinois ballot boxes for JFK in 1960. All the more galling considering how few popular votes there were that year between victory and defeat. Democrats lie, cheat, and steal, everything including elections.
