Proposal For Purple States.Blue Districts Need To Call In Votes First,Then Red.

Posted on 10/20/2014 5:11:46 AM PDT by Cruz_West_Paul2016

This has to be one of the primary reasons Republicans lose in purple swing states by a very narrow margin. Take the latest Virginia Governor's race as an example, all looked well until the end, then a few blue districts reported at the last minute and we lost! Same with November 2012. We were winning in most crucial states right till the end, meanwhile still waiting for a few "Last Minute Deep Blue" districts to call in their votes. Is this going to happen again in those few close senate races in Georgia and North Carolina? It would seem like who ever is calling in the final votes in deep blue districts is just waiting to see how many votes he/she needs to supersede the GOP's lead. If this were the case in Illinois, Pennsylvania and Nevada, do you think the GOP candidate would lose?

Colors are backwards. RED is Communist-Democrat.

Exactly. Or... EVERYBODY completes their counting THEN reports en masse. No more of this crap of “with 90% of precincts counted and awaiting returns from Hellhole City...”)

We need real anti-fraud laws and mechanisms. And long, long prison terms for cheaters. For generations, people have winked at voter fraud and treated it like a game, the way the law used to wink at drunk driving.

It should be treated as something just short of treason. And any politician who wins an election in which fraud is proven should go to prison also—even without evidence of his involvement. That would give the politicians an incentive to hire honest flunkies.

That’s exactly why Democrats get pissed off when red districts turn in their results late... they can’t gauge how many fraudulent votes to inject from the inner-city districts where Eric Holder’s people live.

this would be like Harry Reid calling in his state as he sees the GOP ahead by 20,000 votes awaiting his final district’s tally with a population of 19,000. right?

******************************************************************************************************
Yes, the colors used to be “reversed”. But then the Mainstream Media realized that RED was becoming too accurate of a depiction of the DemocRAT’s very left direction.

They want to control the language as well as the “colors”.

They won’t be doing that stunt in Texas, not this year at least.

Red is the color of fire, civilization, progress. Blue is the color of detachment, stasis, pointless mental contemplation. I’ll take Red every time.

How about the results all get posted at the same time? So everyone waits until the counting is done, and then there is a standard time for the announcement.

I believed this happened in the union recall of Walker. The last place to call in was a deep Republican state and they called in a huge number, ultimately making the number for the Democrats to make up unreachable. The Democrats were fit to be tied over it.

The left is going to pull this crap one day, and it will be so obvious and infuriating that it will spark a violent, bloody revolution.

They are too stupid to just know when to take their stolen winnings and leave the table.

I like the idea of county voting better. Those urban outdoorsmen and feral youts can over-vote as much as they like; it won’t impact the rest of the counties/State.

It was actually the Supreme court race. Waukesha country reported the results properly, but there was an error/oversight/strategery, where they failed to report their totals to the AP, which then had lower numbers for the Republicans. The holdout Dem precincts then reported, putting Justice Prosser behind. Once the Waukesha results were corrected it was too late for the Dems to steal it and Prosser won.

So you’re proud to be a “RED” ?

Yes, red is the color of creativity, invention, passion, energy, life.

Red is the historical color of leftism/fascism/totalitarianism. Red China. Nazi Germany. Soviet Union. The blood-stains of the millions tortured and murdered, and, indeed, billions of those oppressed, is reflected in that color.

That the media on election night 2000 willfully and shamelessly decided to foist an Orwellian newspeak switcheroo to cover up their own support for that evil ideology and foist it on their enemies, the Republicans, should’ve drawn howls of outrage from here to Mars. The color blue has always been the color of international Conservatism, the calm, rational and sane color that opposes the murderous insanity of the left.

To call yourself a proud Red shows utter ignorance and cognitive dissonance of reality on your part, sir. I find it viscerally and utterly offensive to the core of my being, and I reject it wholeheartedly. As the old refrain goes: Better dead than RED.

All that needs to happen, is the Poll Captains in the Red Districts be informed: “HOLD ONTO THE ELECTION RETURNS/RESULTS UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE!”
