Possible electoral fraud in Austrian presidential election
American Thinker ^ | May 26, 2016 | Sierra Rayne

As the days go by, the results of the Austrian presidential election get more suspicious. According to the official results, the far-left candidate Alexander Van der Bellen defeated Norbert Hofer from the Freedom Party of Austria by just 31,000 votes, 50.35% to 49.65%.

The lights were already blinking red on the day the results were being released. Writing for Breitbart soon thereafter, James Delingpole didn't mince words and called the election a sham:

We were continually assured by the left-liberal media how awful it would be if the (supposed) "far-right" candidate Norbert Hofer won. But actually the victory of Green candidate Alexander Van der Bellen – on, likely, a rigged ballot – is far, far worse. It's bad for democracy: Hofer lost by just 31,000 of the 4.64 million votes cast. Suspicions are bound to fall on the 700,000 votes cast in the postal ballot, which appears to be what swung it for Van der Bellen. But postal votes as we know – especially from the experience of Muslim-dominated constituencies in the UK – are prone to rampant fraud. Austrians who voted for Hofer are talking about "betrug" – fraud – and this may well be more than sour grapes. In some areas there was a remarkable 146.9 percent voter turnout. This stinks of a stitch up by the bien-pensant elite in unholy alliance with the immigrant bloc vote.

Austrians should be concerned. There are red flags all over these results.

"The Dielbold machines are primed and ready to go if its close."

The last election in Maryland the Deibold machines were voted out and now paper ballots are used again. It will be a little bit more difficult to cheat in Maryland come November but I'm sure some enterprising Democrat will figure out a new vote scam for Hillary.

Any time the voter turnout exceeds 125% of those eligible, there is reason to be suspicious.

I remember reading about an election in the Soviet Union when Stalin was running things. He won 125% of the vote in his district and it was explained as voters from neighboring districts loving him so much they came to vote in his district.

In 1861 when Tennessee voted on whether to join the Confederacy, in one county the vote was unanimous, 1000 to zero, in favor. There were only 200 eligible voters.

Sounds like the voting in Chicago and Philadelphia.

In Virginia, they always hold Norfolk, Newport News and other urban areas to the very end in a close election and there are always “just enough” votes in those cities to put the Dems over. Earlier this year, a Dem commentator on Fox admitted this happened in Fairfax County where the Dems would hold the minority precincts to the very end of the evening to see how many votes they needed to add to the totals. I was quite amazed at his open and shameless honesty about their dishonesty.

The EU was,until very recently,led by Manuel Barosso...a guy who was a *Maoist* in his youth.The current President of the European Parliament is a German Marxist named Martin Schultz.Might the movers and shakers of the EU want to scam the election results? You betcha! Would they have the ability to scam 31,000 votes? You betcha!

And it is funny that the Right—from its leaders, all the way down to the grass roots, lets it happen. Time after time after time...

This election was won by the Austrian Greens, who are full-on Marxists who make our Democrats look conservative in comparison.

have you ever heard of stuffing the ballot box? in close elections where the democrat is losing, suddenly an uncounted ballot box is found and voila, the democrat is suddenly the victor. it has happened over and over again.
