There are over 160,000 precincts in the US....each with over 1000 voters. (Ours has around 2000). 10 extra (or withdrawn) in every precinct equals 1.6 MILLION votes...FRAUD could be EASY.
exactly - i noticed that too - we need to wait and see what the final vote totals are and then dig deep.
That’s my problem with the whole thing. We heard on the radio Idaho turnout were record numbers, like 80%. I kept hearing that all day, record turnouts everywhere. What the heck?
BS - turnout everywhere was much higher than reported.
Anyone think that early voting and absentee ballots may have stuffed the ballot boxes for Dems and lost the Repub ballots? Or maybe Repub votes fraudently counted as Dem?
Nah, couldnt possibly happen, could it?
/S
Or it was voting machines changing Romney votes to Obama or being rigged to count a certain way? We saw it happening in swing states.
Also, the dems enthusiam for voter fraud was not as large this time as it was last time. You had plenty of voter fraud, but not like last time.
Why was my son in Belguim voting via the internet and the troops are not allowed to vote by internet? Some of the missing votes could be the troops who were systematically ommitted from what I read.
Romney was not all that inspiring. To us, because we read, he was a hope for better than Obama in foreign policy and the economy. But to low information voters, he did not stand out, except for being a rich globalist guy would would ban Big Bird and who mentioned nothing appealing about ideology of American freedom.
There is so much he could have done against Obama in addition to the usual rino economic and spending drab. Hello! Mindless sexual molestation at the airports is not popular with women.
Just saying McCain got more than Romney doesn’t mean anyone stayed home. We just have fewer conservative voters. 2.5 million have died each year since 2004, and well over half of those were age 75 and above (3/4ths were age 65 and above). These were depression era people that tended to vote and tended to vote conservatively. We’re talking about 18 million people. Figure a voting rate of 60% (10.8 million) and an R/D ratio of 54/46, and you have 5-6 million (4 million minimum) that probably voted for Bush in 2004 that didn’t vote for Romney. The younger voters replacing the older ones are voting in large part for D’s.
There’s no way conservatives stayed home in droves. I’m beginning to doubt that many stayed home in 2008. We have a different electorate and we’ve largely lost the ability to do anything about it. Immigration reform and voter id laws during the 2004-8 years would have helped tremendously, but that’s pretty much dead now.
Ping for final outcome.
There was not enough fraud to matter in this election. Freeper Jackmercer used science & data for several weeks leading up to this election right here on FR & NAILED the numbers & how the election would turn out. Look it up.
Here’s a video of a voting machine expert giving court testimony explaining in detail how large numbers of votes can be easily changed:

Romney/Ryan won 48% of the Catholic vote, and 79% of the Evangelical vote, get the cobwebs out of your head.
Better yet, make your statement, except get the denominations correct.
LOL, I really want to learn how a voting block that voted by an astounding 79% for the GOP ticket, is the butt of so many attacks, insults, and blame accusations from the romneybots today.
Liberal Republicans should be falling to their knees in praise of the Evangelical vote, instead they attack Evangelicals constantly.
Understood, but even in those blue states there would be Romney voters that would have added to his totals if not for Sandy. I guess that was my point ultimately, not so much that he would win, but that his totals would be higher.
If Mitt's Mormonism kept people from voting, isn't it true that he carried the Bible belt states?
Much like the pre election polling analysis, the post-election analysis by FReepers is about 5-10% out of touch with reality.
1. There are a significant number of evangelicals who will never under any circumstances vote for a Mormon. We saw them her on FR until they suddenly disappeared. They won't admit this to pollsters. This was a big problem in Southern swing states and Ohio.
2. We still have a lot of the "teach 'em a lesson" crowd from 2006. They think that deliberately losing elections somehow makes things better for us. They think that refusing to vote for any candidate who doesn't fit their views like a glove somehow increases the chances they get their way. They might want to re-think that now that they have given us four more years of Obama and have made Obamacare unrepealable.
Look, Romney wasn't any of our candidates. But does anyone here really think Obama will be better? Romney survived as the candidate out of a very weak bench. From what I see we will have a much stronger bench in 2016. Problem is, immeasurable damage will have been done to the country by then.
Evangelicals voted 79% for Mormon Romney.
Catholics gave him 48%.
