Call from Trump Campaign: Ballot Hanky Panky
self---from Trump caller | 3/12/2016 | LS

Posted on 03/12/2016 5:25:22 PM PST by LS

Just got a call from a Trump phone bank volunteer to remind us about voting Tuesday. He said that it was very important that Trump's name is on the ballot twice, and if it's not marked in both places, this would go as a vote for Kasich.

This was a "Trump for President" official campaign caller, as based on all the disclaimers and asking if we supported Trump.

Does anyone know anything about this? How can it go for Kasich if you don't check The Mailman's name?

They all are. The idiot Ohio GOP printed the ballots as if they still had proportional delegates even after changing to winner take all, so you have to mark both places even though only one will count. It’s a ridiculous example of the kind of incompetence Trump talks about and it very well might end up in court.

“The Ohio GOP dropped the ball”

How can this even happen? Does no one in the state of Ohio check these things? Where is the Governor? Oh..wait....

There’s a liberal Republican machine here that’s rigged a state that votes Democrat for President so that the GOPe controls 13 of the 18 congressional districts with the Dems being kept to 5.

A century ago when there were some 36 congressional districts here in the PA, the GOP drew lines that kept the Democrats down to 6 of them.

They know how to fix things.

They should tell every single voter before they go in the booth.

Why would they tell every voter in a primary run by the party? The Kasich voters are more likely to have voted in previous primaries, so they already know. Trump supporters are the ones who are new to this - he is bringing in new people who otherwise would not vote. They want Trump voters to mess up, so the delegates are determined only by those who knew the system well.

No matter WHO you vote for, the issue is the same. Trump, Kasich, Rubio, no matter, you have to check their names twice. ONLY one of them counts, but folks can’t be sure which one, so you need to mark both.

It’s only Trump paranoia that has this down to some sort of plot to trick Trump voters - unless they REALLY ARE that much more stupid than all the other voters. Then they ought to register and vote Democrat, that’s where the stupid vote is usually concentrated.

I meant it was a devious scheme to catch those who are unaware to be casting votes for Kasich instead of the candidate of their choice. There are lots of issues as to why this could happen. In my case it is poor eyesight. So you see it extends beyond just the stupid, and could even affect your man Cruz.

Thank you! As suspected the high mucky mucks FU royally in order to keep persons from voting the candidate they endorsed. The entire primary system is rigged by these scumbags and it makes blood come out of my eyes and where ever. We shall see how Trump’s security team come’s out of the inquiry and how much crow will be eaten and by whom.

GO TRUMP This is the Express!
