Senate hopeful Ernst enters final stretch with edge over Dem in polls, fundraising

Joni Ernst is back to “hogging” Iowa airwaves, as she barrels into Election Day with another pig-themed ad, a slight edge over her Democratic rival in the polls and a significant fundraising advantage.

Whether that’s enough to carry the Republican nominee to victory in the hard-fought Iowa Senate race remains to be seen. But GOP operatives, some of whom have flocked to her campaign after she emerged from a crowded field to snag the nomination earlier this year, are touting her chances in the final days of the race.

The latest good omen for Republicans was in early voting and absentee ballots, where the party says more registered Republicans than Democrats are voting early for the first time in modern-Iowa election history.

“The Democrats can spin all they want but they are in trouble in a blue state,” Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said in a statement late Wednesday.

Poor Joni is at the mercy of the Democratic vote fraud meat grinder----b/c when Braley loses, the long knives will be out for lamebrain Michelle Obama.

The Princeton grad can't even read. Surrounded by Braley campaign posters at an Iowa campaign rally, she kept calling him "Bailey."

Now that she "likes" her country and has a bit of self-esteem, ensconced in the WH at the rate of $1.5 billion per year----plus her endless posh vacays----Obama wont allow her royal self to be tarnished.

Vote fraud is on bigtime.

FReeper Kenny Bunk showed us how vote fraud-tech works.

Some of it still takes place at the precinct level nowadays , especially in big cities with minority majorities, with the traditional church van visiting 10-12 precincts.

You report early to the church hall, get a hearty breakfast, $20-30 in street money, make sure your absentee ballots are in order, then you hit the polls. It's tradition. If the church is well organized, you'll get some lunch, too, and maybe another trip round the precincts. Sometimes the street money is paid for each voting receipt. 10-12 not unheard of.

But these days, the major chicanery is done with absentees and computers. Dead people are absent, are they not? Virtual people invented by your Sim City program are absent, too. Are they not? Virtual voters are often generated from the dead, who are presumed to have multi-generational families.

These techniques grew up with computers. The pioneers were the Congressional Sanchez Sisters in Orange county, CA. Loretta's team just plain invented about 7500 voters. They also worked hard to illegally register aliens, legal and illegal, felons.

The tech has matured to the point where CA is reputed to have half-a-million fraudulent votes available. It has also been reported that about 75 seats in the CA legislature were filled by fraudulent election tactics.

Judges of Elections know the tricks. 75 voters registered at a house that doesn't exist on a non-existent street; another 50 registered at an address that is a gas station ... or an empty lot. 6100 dead voted in one county ? ... that's more than enough to throw an election. In local elections where 15% turnout is considered good ... like schoolboard ... 10 fraudulent absentee votes can throw the results.

“...Joni Ernst will be a conservative star in the Senate.”

She will be if she stays true to constitutional conservative principles as Ted Cruz has done. If she stands fast to those principles she could become a GIANT in national politics. However, if she falls for the GOPe “romancing” (similar to the partially successful GOPe romancing of Kelly Ayotte) that will continue to come her way if she wins, then not so much.

There is no candidate in any race that I want to see win more than Joni Ernst. I know that the Entitlement bitches and the Welfare Queens will never vote for a Republican woman. But, I’m thinking that the Independent women and Republican women (even the moderates) would want to turn out enmasse and be part of history; i.e. helping to elect the first woman ever, to the U.S. Senate from Iowa.

How is the possibility of that happening, looking at this stage of the game?
