AP-NORC Poll: Half of Trump backers don't trust vote count
Associated Press ^ | Oct 1, 2016 2:02 AM EDT | Jonathan Lemire and Emily Swanson

Amid Donald Trump’s unprecedented assertion that the general election “is going to be rigged,” many Americans who are drawn to the Republican nominee’s campaign have major doubts about the accuracy of the vote count.

Only about a third of Republicans say they have a great deal or quite a bit of confidence that votes in this year’s election will be counted fairly, according to a new poll from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. Half the people who have a favorable opinion of the Republican nominee say they have little to no confidence in the integrity of the vote count, the poll finds. […]

Such fears of voter fraud are unfounded: There is no evidence it is a widespread a problem in the United States. A study conducted by a Loyola Law School professor found that out of 1 billion votes cast in all American elections between 2000 and 2014, there were only 31 known cases of impersonation fraud. …

Yes. Also yesterday there was a thread about "signing up dead people" in Virginia.

BTW, it looks like FR "hiccuped" again. You might ask the admin to pull two of your posts...
Just sayin'

31 cases? Is this guy on drugs? What about the Turkish guy who shot a bunch of people in Washington State a couple of weeks ago - he is 20 years old and not a citizen, yet he was registered to vote in the last three elections. That means that Not only was he not qualified to vote at all, but he voted when he was under age 18. If anyone thinks that this is anywhere near a unique case, I’ve got a large amount of beachfront property in Arizona that I’d like to sell to them.

What worries me is if Trump wins, then Hillary says , “Whoa, waitaminit...the voter rolls have been tampered with. I want a recount!”. And, as the Dems did in Washington state when Republican Dino Rossi won the governorship back in 2004 (IIRC), they challenged and recounted...three times...until Christine “Fraudoire” finally got enough “found” voted to make her the governor.

If they try that crap (and especially if they should succeed), what should the response of freedom-loving, patriotic Americans be?

Exactly. It’s gonna be a mess. We’ve got to win by Plus 10. What is Hugh Hewitt’s book title “If it’s not close they can’t cheat”. Fits here.

This is not an original thought, but it bears repeating:

If the lack of voter ID and other forms of fraud at the polls favored Republicans, the Democrats and media would be screaming their outrage until it was fixed.

Winning six coin tosses in a row isn't proof of fraud. Hillary's just lucky.

Just ask her about cattle futures...

There are several types of election fraud. One trick of the other side is to confuse them.

1. People register themselves to vote and are not qualified to do so. Excons are probably the biggest group here. Legal immigrants the second biggest. Cases of illegals doing so are very small.

2. People register others to vote. This is far bigger than #1. Patronage employees and contractors of local political organizations are under pressure to produce big votes in order to keep their government check coming. The common response is to register the dead, register non-citizens, register those who are not likely to speak for themselves.

3. Then, of course, the political patronage votes on behalf of others, those who did not register themselves, those who were badgered into registering and most importantly those who moved and no longer live at the address where they are registered.

When I registered in GA I wrote the Cruz conservative County Clerk in IL to take me off their vote role. Allegedly GA also sent them a list with my name and old address on it. But subsequently the super honest county clerk has sent me voter registration cards for several elections.

3. Vote count fraud at the precinct level.

4. Vote count fraud at the county or vote consolidation level.

5. HAVA - Help America Vote Act fraud. After the Bush-Gore hanging chads, Dem Sen Chris Dodd (Friend of Angelo) pushed through HAVA. Friends of Dodd grabbed control of the money pot and spending of the money on election hardware and software.

They consciously purchased hardware and software that would benefit the Democrats. They gave FREE MONEY to the Republican Secretaries of State and Republican County Clerks. The Republicans were only too happy to get FREE MONEY that they did not have to be accountable to the legislature or anyonelse. And the HAVA Friends of Dodd were so nice to steer everyone to the approved contractors.

6. Now that the Republicans have been snookered into paying Democrats to provide the election hardware and software the Republicans don’t want the facts to get out. I talked to a St Sen yesterday who was extremely protective of his corrupt Republican Sec of State whose greed allowed him to get suckered.
