The Dems have been out since 2008 registering voters, legally or illegally. Also, during the early voting here in Florida, streams of buses full of grannies from black churches pulled up to all the early voting sites. Did we do anything even remotely similar?
There was definitely fraud - I live in a Florida county where GOP voters received letters from some place in Washington State telling them they were illegal and couldn’t vote. And our county election data base had a mysterious burp (and it was definitely not the fault of the Registrar of Voters, who is very honest) and this interfered with assigning GOP poll watchers. Did the GOP have a plan for that? No.
On the day of the election, they gave us the number of an attorney we could call. Meanwhile, the Dems had attorneys as poll watchers, busy intimidating the poll workers and GOP poll watchers.
But the major thing is simply that our candidate was the wrong one and didn’t believe the message himself, except in a limited economic sphere. Even there, I read that he refused to let Ryan go out and address urban voter segments (including blacks) with a message of economic empowerment.
We need a better message and a heck of a lot better candidate next time. And we also need to get started NOW on 2016.
We need to get started NOW on the voter fraud and making sure the military overseas get their ballots in time. Not the week before the election.
