What?!?
What does Rang Paul have to say now?
repeated and baseless allegations of fraud and misconduct
Oh yeah? Prove it!
See you in court.
Only Haley’s vote counts.
I am no fan of Cochran and disappointed he won the runoff. However, the theory by which McDaniel’s attorney is claiming a victory is absurd.
Find 6,000 bad votes and protest. If you can’t, just walk away and wait for next election.
That’s some fancy lawyering. Beats counting the votes I guess.
Conservatives should vote for the Democrat in the General when the GOPe candidate won with Democrat votes in the Primary.
Fraudsters should lose.
I must say, this is a strange approach to winning due to fraud.
I find it hard to believe that statistics and not outright identification of sham votes/voters will suffice.
Hopefully, the description provided is too abbreviated.
I’m 100% behind McDaniel, but I sure hope they’re not serious about that plan to declare him the winner based upon regression analysis of polling numbers!
That’s nuts.
Put a different way: if that concept bears fruit, get ready for the ‘rats to hire Nate Silver to do their own “regression analyses” in every damn race in the country in 2014.
I’m pretty sure it’s just legal bluster. Sure hope so. Hope McDaniel prevails and gets a new election and wins that one by a landslide.
From the linked article....
....The evidence, presented to the public in the form of affidavits that will be used in McDaniel’s forthcoming official challenge of election results, is hundreds of pages long and encompasses nearly every one of Mississippi’s 82 counties.
At the press conference, McDaniel announced he will be using such evidence to file a formal challenge of the runoff results with the state GOP executive committee. Ten days after he files the challenge with that body—which, given its extensive ties to the GOP establishment in the state, is expected to rule against the Tea Party-backed McDaniel or just simply ignore the challenge—McDaniel can take the challenge into state court.
“It’s been an interesting six weeks since the 24th. We’ve been very, very busy. We’ve covered the state as well as we could with hundreds of volunteers, but justice has no time table, and yet here we stand. They asked us to put up or shut up—well, here we are. Here we are with the evidence,” McDaniel said.
I can hear hard-drives crashing from my front porch!
What, if anything, has been decided in Federal Court regarding the McDaniel campaign’s application that was heard two weeks ago?
The Constitution needs to be amended to make the MAXIMUM age for a US Congressman or Senator 65 years old. That will get rid of the often seen legislator who probably doesn’t have the mental capability to scratch their asses; from voting on legislation that affects US ALL.
By that time, their staff and lobbyists tell them how to vote anyway, and they probably do well to not piss themselves, or remember what state or district they’re from.
I suppose term limits would fix most of this.
But Thad had the “Walking Dead” vote...
YES! McDaniel sound very confident!
Figures lie,
Liars figure.
Polls, even statistically valid ones will never be accepted for election results.
He’s asking for honor from the GOPe but the GOPe has no honor.
You can’t win an election by polls. They need actual vote counts not projections based on polls.
You can only disallow votes that are illegal. Apparently, crossovers in Mississippi are legal.
