This all along should have been the story of the day, and I can’t imagine how the MSM got away without reporting this.
What are we to think of a nation that fights tooth and nail for illegal aliens to vote but disenfranchises soldiers fighting on our behalf?
But what passes for "Republicans" in Congress won't issue a peep. They are the true enemies of our country. They ALLOW this to happen.
Indeed. Hugh Hewitt should address this issue on his radio show.
EVERY SINGLE military vote...Every single person in our military that wishes to vote...These votes should ALWAYS be counted, no matter what!!!!!!!
These people’s lives are on the line a lot of the time depending on how an election goes.....
If even ONE military vote is ignored, disenfranchised or not allowed to be counted at any time, is a travesty of the worst.....
Just advice....
Try HUGE next time....
HUGH is the name of the Playboy editor, Hefner....
The military knows well what the dork thinks of them.
When CW-II comes, they will also know well that they have vowed to protect the constitution, not the dork.
Hopefully, the crew of AF-1 will refuse to fly the dork out of the country when the mobs reach the White House.
And the Marines at the White House will have the pleasure of flipping the dork the bird he so soundly deserves.
This is an outrage of the most unforgivable sort. Fighting men should be the FIRST to vote! In an electronic age, there is no excuse.
But the Republicans won’t take a stand and fight for the people who fight (and die) for them. In fact, they won’t fight for anything that matters.
They’re not called the Wet Noodle Party for nothing. Good chance they’ve jumped the shark this time around.
We should bombard our congress person to pass a law that no election can be declared valid without our military votes being counted!!
All by design of the left...
Every election we hear the same old trope. Democrats complain about voters being disenfranchised and Republicans complain about military votes not being counted. If this is a serious issue, then the Republicans need to get off their duffs and actually propose and vote on a remedy. It should be fairly easy if done right- I can’t see how anyone could object out in the open. Otherwise, it’s just sour grapes.
I agree, it’s outrageous. If Congress wants to investigate something, put this at the top of the list.
It is outrageous and it should not stand. The electoral college should not be allowed to validate the election until all military personal have had the right to vote. How on earth can you justify this? The DOJ fights like a mad dog to make sure states can not require photo ids to vote for fear of disenfranchising some poor slob who can’t find his way to the county clerk who will give him his id. Yet they seem more than willing to disenfranchise those who risk their lives to keep us safe. Absolute evil.
Military Absentee Ballots Delivered One Day Late, Would Have Swung Election For Romney
by drew on November 7, 2012 · 97 comments
WASHINGTON, DC – Sources confirmed today that hundreds of thousands of military absentee ballots were delivered hours after the deadline for them to be counted, with preliminary counts showing that they would have overturned the vote in several states and brought a victory for Governor Mitt Romney.
Officials say the ballots were delivered late due to problems within the military mail system. Tracking invoices show the ballots sat in a warehouse for a month, then they were accidentally labeled as ammunition and shipped to Afghanistan. At Camp Dwyer, Marine Sergeant John Davis signed for them and was surprised at the contents.
“I told Gunny we got a bunch of ballots instead of ammo,” Davis told investigators earlier today. “He told me to file a report of improper delivery and that the chain of command would take care of it. We didn’t hear anything for three weeks. While we were waiting we came under fire so we dumped a bunch of them in the Hescoes. We didn’t dig those ones back out.”
After military officials realized the initial error, the ballots were then sent back to the U.S. but suffered a series of setbacks.
Twelve boxes of ballots were dropped overboard during delivery to the USS Kearsarge (LHD-3) in the Persian Gulf, then while the ship sailed to Bahrain, postal clerks allegedly pocketed whatever ballots they wanted.
The remaining absentee ballots were loaded onto a C-130, but the flight was delayed until November 1st so the crew could get tax free pay for the month. Once the ballots arrived stateside they were promptly mailed to each state’s counting facility, reaching their final destination on November 7th.
“It’s a shame,” Rear Admiral John Dawes said when asked for comment. “I expected a delay so I ordered that everyone cast their votes eight months ago. It’s really unfortunate that our mail system failed us and directly affected the course of history.”
Upon hearing the news, angry Republicans have begun a demand for a recount, but most military absentee voters have shrugged off the news, with many wondering whether the care packages their families sent six months ago were ever going to show up.

This should be another cause to have the certification of electoral voters challenged. That veterans away from home and who have actually voted on or before November 6 do not get their votes counted is a travesty of government. That many ballots were lost or intentionally delayed going or coming is even worse. As this situation appears to be just one of strange events including multiple possibilities of fraudulent votes/voting there should be a loud outcry for challenging, suspending and even voiding any certification of the electoral votes until such have been aired and cleared. In the past it has been tradition for the President of the Senate (VP Biden in this case) to ask for objections to the certification. Whether Biden would hold to tradition and honor is problematical. However, if there were to be one fervent patriot in the Senate and one fervent patriot in the House of Representatives who would stand up and declare their objection to certification my guess would be that there would be some action/discussion to resolve a dispute. Of course Biden could just gavel the approval as being unanimous without any discussion of all the concerns but approximately 50% of the people in the USA would understand how corrupt democracy can take away what the Founders intended.
