I’m part of it - it’s real. Going to be a long day tomorrow!
Yes, I do. Thanks, you’re a scholar and a gentleman.
Why would we? This article basically says Obama has a system as sophisticated as Romney’s.
Its a little frightening that each campaign knows when their supporters cast their vote. (Or not). Sounds a little too big brotherish.
I’m kind of with Paul, 2DV. Can you ‘splain why I need to feel better? :)
What still worries me is that while Romney will be corralling live people to vote Obama’s people might be calling dead ones. The stinch of the Franken fraud in MN still looms large in my head. If this race is close in OH it’s stealable.
Could it be that some of these pollsters overweighting the Dem vote maybe knew about the Obama strategy to get out votes but not this one, thus they factored that into their over representation of Obama voters in the belief that Romney had old fashioned methods only?
Obama’s vote targeting system is named after the Narwhal, aka the unicorn of the ocean.
I’m participating here. It is a great system and I was very impressed as I learned more about it and how it functions. All precincts here are covered from open to closing of the polls.
Good to know that WE know who we need to get out to the polls and whether they are showing up and hopefully tracking down the stragglers, although at this point I don’t know who those people would be. On the internals of the Gallup poll today (R-50 O-49) Romney still leads on the economy 52-46. That’s what I see as the key stat in this election and probably close to the final result.
Yea, right.......Your vote is secret and your appearance at the poll is merely checked off the registered voting list.
Now, if it was actually the GOP that abducted me and inserted that probe thing then I would believe this story.........
I came to this thread expecting to read about Chris Christie.
That sounds so much better “Orca Project” than something like “The War Room”...killer whale action....but enviro friendly.
Well, I know this much. The ground game for Florida is HUGE this year. You are going to see a huge explosion for Romney on the Space Coast all the way up to Jacksonville and then way West to Pensacola is going big Romney...I am talking huge. People I know working the ground game in Melbourne, Daytona, Jacksonville, and in the panhandle are saying an uptick of around 20% over 2008 for the GOP.
In Texas it will be a total slaughter with Romney winning by 20% or more.
With all the wonderful technology they should do a better job running the country.
The app will already have the early and absentee voters recorded on it to allow the Romney legal team to contest votes from those early and often voters. The information will be relayed directly to Gov. Romney at the war room in Boston, which he will use to make tactical decisions based on the data that is sent back.

I don’t see this as all that invasive. They read your name aloud and someone else punches it into a computer and they cross you off their list. Personally I wish we would just do away with the secret balllot and save the silliness. You could vote at anytime and it would end most fraud...but result in more outright vote buying.
Hmmm, don't Orcas eat Narwhals? Just sayin'.
