BREAKING: McDaniel Supporters Barred From Reviewing Voter Rolls in Three Mississippi Counties
Gateway Pundit ^ | 6/27/14 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 06/27/2014 8:46:23 AM PDT by blueyon

Breaking– The Chris McDaniel campaign identified multiple Mississippi counties in which enough improper ballots were cast that a legal challenge to the outcome of the election is warranted. This comes after 25,000-35,000 Democrat votes helped push Thad Cochran to victory over Chris McDaniel (by 6,880 votes) in the June 24 runoff.

The McDaniel campaign has already found 1,000 examples in one county of Democrats who voted in the June 3rd primary as Democrats and then crossed over into the Republican primary this week. This is illegal and their votes should not be counted.

Update—– Lindsay Krout, an independent contractor working in Mississippi, was barred from reviewing voter rolls in Lafayette County Mississippi Friday morning.

I think Thad and the good ol’ boys he associates with should pay the fine for ignorant people whom his campaign induced to vote illegally.

I said all along the democrat and rino election commissioners will NOT allow anyone to get near a voter roll. By the time it gets through a court with a democrat or rino judge, it’ll be too late.

The good citizens of Mississippi should realize that this is a situation that was contemplated by the second amendment. Get 50-100+ armed citizens showing up demanding access to the voter records and the law enforcement agencies will stand down and allow access.

I’d first give a judge to right this wrong, and then I would use force to get the records. The corrupt public officials will continue with their acts right up to the time they understand their lives are threatened.

There is a precedent.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Athens_%281946%29

Polls for the county election opened August 1, 1946. About 200 armed deputies turned out to patrol the precincts—the normal complement of 15 deputies significantly augmented by reinforcements from other counties. A number of conflicts arose before the polls closed, the most serious of which was when a black man, Tom Gillespie, was assaulted by officers after casting his vote. Deputy C.M. Wise shot and wounded him in the back while he was trying escape from the officers. C.M. Wise was later sentenced to 1–3 years in prison, being the only person to face charges from the events of August 1–2, 1946.[7]

As the polls closed, deputies seized ballot boxes and took them to the jail. Opposition veterans responded by arming themselves and marching there. Some of them had raided the National Guard Armory, obtaining arms and ammunition.[9] Estimates of the number of veterans besieging the jail vary from several hundred[9] to as high as 2,000.[7]

When the men reached the jail, it was barricaded and manned by 55 deputies. The veterans demanded the ballot boxes but were refused. They then opened fire on the jail, initiating a battle that lasted several hours by some accounts,[7][9] considerably less by others.[10] In the end, the door of the jail was dynamited and breached. The barricaded deputies—some with injuries—surrendered, and the ballot boxes were recovered.

This statement is an admission that UNLESS A VOLUNTEER POLL WATCHER OBJECTS they let illegal voters vote.

Certainly there are odd mistakes. But the PRACTICE of letting people through unless there is an objection me ands THERE IS NO PRESUMPTION that votes are legal.

So, it’s a straight up issue: do the records show the number of illegal votes exceeded the margin? If so, the election should be void. Then, the PRACTICE should be changed so that the PAID WORKERS FOLLOW THE LAW. They don’t get to decided the law. Not even the President can decide what laws he will enforce and what laws he won’t enforce. The legislature decides the law and the executive faithfully executes the laws.

Furthermore, Thad should spare everybody a lot of heartburn on this. He should himself be anxious to see if he won the run-off by reason of illegal votes. If that was the case, he should withdraw. If margin of victory is found to be higher than the number of illegal votes, then he could say “no harm no foul.”

For the sake of unanimity in the Republican Party, he should contact McDaniel and make the offer to do the right thing and see if McDaniel will reciprocate.

-- So he can just claim a mistake and that ends it... --

No. The records tell a story, and as he says, I'm sure there are some honest mistakes in there. Crossed out "Voted" in June 3 column, and "Voted" in June 24, in the same hand, shows what I think is an honest mistake. I don't buy his story about the colonoscopy patient, but that's only one vote.

McDaniel has plenty of time to review the poll books.

On reflection, she might have voted absentee, too. That also gets a “voted” notation in the June 3 column. The mistake of making a “voted” in exactly that space is weird. Was the poll worker intending to mark the name above, or below? What, exactly, was the mistake?

So, the Secretary of State and AG put out a joint statement on June 23. It explains why poll watchers are not required, welcome or allowed.

Important Election Information (plain text)

Crossover voting prohibited

Crossover voting is prohibited in the State of Mississippi. Crossover voting is defined as participation in the first primary of one political party and participation in the runoff primary of another party. Thus, a voter who cast his/her ballot in the Democratic Primary Election on June 3 is prohibited from casting his/her ballot in the Republican Primary Runoff Election on June 24, and vice versa. See MS AG Op., Brown (April 7, 1988).

Here is a link to MS AG Op., Brown (April 7, 1988), 1988 WL 250048, if you want to read the specific rationale relating to "crossover voting" in Mississippi. Anyway, the workers were claimed, then, to know and follow the law, including the law about crossover voting.

I do agree with your sentiment. Cochran and the GOP have a vested interest in proving the election isn't tainted, and should not be throwing up any roadblocks.

Hinds had a huge increase in total votes for the runoff. Cochran won the runoff
by 10,981 votes in Hinds county which is substantially over his statewide win
total. That is truly where the race was won, imo.

I’m using the following Politico numbers as the SOS isn’t posted yet.

There should be an apparatus in place whereby the campaign can designate those it wants to review the rolls. Whenever our area has had a recount, or canvas, the respective parties and campaigns call for volunteers, and generally pair up teams from opposing sides. There’s no big mystery when something like this has to take place.

Until the results are certified to the Secretary of State, the ballots, rolls, etc., are supposed to be secured and off-limits to those who don’t have proper credentials.

If a felony, he should serve a felony term, and lose ALL voting rights for at least 10 years.

May be up already on FR, but DRUDGE has a newsmax story up above in the headlines that about 50 militia have formed a human chain blockade at Laredo. If not up, needs to be. I can’t post articles. Thx, Rita

I wasn’t aware that having a Colonoscopy would prevent you from going to the Polls.

The entire process of getting a Colonoscopy takes about four Hours, including Prep at the Medical Facility, Procedure and Recovery.

The Polls are open 12 Hours. Not quite the Alibi that Lieutenant Columbo would consider an open and shut case.

Civilians are involved with the blockade also.
I think we knew in the gut that something was going to crack in Texas. FED UP!

Perry has failed his obligations to the state. Civilians noticed and are taking things into their own hands.
