MSN Encouraging Voting Twice

Posted on 10/29/2004 12:28:03 PM PDT by madinmadtown

I just went to my MSN home page and there is a big link to a Slate article saying that it is highly unlikely that if you vote twice you will be prosecuted.

Ah, the socialist sense of fair play at work.

Give a link, please! Not because I'd do it, but because I want to see it.

I don't know how to provide a link. It is the MSN home page. I just wrote them.

This is a well established fact among Democrats since they have been doing it for so many years, and how often have you heard someone arrested for it?

They have gone WAY too far in this election. Something has to be done about our corrupt media.

Why not vote twice then? Michael Moore probably shouldn't do it. But you probably could.

Just don't tell any reporters.

"The republicans really need to do something about this crap.

Well, that's a start, but doesn't solve the problem. OK, let's say you lived in Minnesota part of this year, then moved to Wisconsin. You were registered to vote at your address in Minnesota, then registered when you moved to Wisconsin a month ago.

So, on Tuesday morning, you drive to Minnesota and vote in your old precinct, using your old MN driver's license, then drove back to Wisconsin and voted again, using your new WI driver's license. BTW, where I live in Minnesota, I can be in Wisconsin in less than half an hour.

I was blown away when I moved from CA to MN. When I got my MN drivers' license, they just handed my CA one back to me. So, I have both a CA and MN driver's license. The CA one doesn't expire until 2007.

So...you see, the id thing doesn't necessarily solve the problem, does it?

You are all invited to follow the example of the great state of Alabama, (often accused of being backwards and behind the times) where you have to vote at the polling place where you are registered, AND YOU HAVE TO SHOW AN ID.

I hate to say it, but a national id card and database would stop this stuff.

Hope you emailed Slate and MSN telling them this is very irresponsible and that you won't be doing any business with them in future.

How do you think the first JFK got elected president in 1960? Leftists in Chicago, supported by AFL-CIO thugs, got the job done for comrade Kennedy. Dead people in Chi-town love to vote for rats.

From the article:

After the Florida debacle of 2000, however, the good old days of getting away with voting twice (or even joking about it at dinner parties, as the film director John Waters has done) have ended. This year's double-voting investigations are already under way. In Galveston, Texas, the local district attorney is looking into six people who cast ballots twice in early voting. Right-wing bloggers, especially the bilious freerepublic.org, have been on fire since the Daily News story, since 68 percent of the News' double-registrants were Democrats, and Florida and New York officials—embarrassed by the newspapers' revelations—have been playing catch-up.

For all the new concern about double voting, though, the odds of getting caught remain minuscule. Comparing voter databases county by county and state by state is a needle-in-haystack undertaking, even with the aid of computers. Why not vote twice then? Michael Moore probably shouldn't do it. But you probably could.

Just don't tell any reporters.


At the end of the article.
