National Review Online's Jim Geraghty chimed in on the attempt by Milwaukee City Mayor Tom Barrett to obtain an abhorrent number of additional ballots.
------- THE MOTHER OF ALL VOTE FRAUDS
Via the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:
Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker, citing vote-fraud concerns, is publicly balking at a City of Milwaukee request for almost 260,000 additional ballots in anticipation of high turnout for the Nov. 2 presidential election.
Mayor Tom Barrett blasted Walker's stance, and Common Council President Willie Hines Jr. immediately joined in, saying it was an attempt to suppress the central-city vote.
"I'm going to lay this at the footsteps of the county if there aren't enough ballots in the city," said Barrett.
Barrett said that the 679,000 ballots the county had agreed to print were less than the amount prepared for the presidential election in 2000 as well as for the the gubernatorial race in 2002. He and the city's top election official said that the city requested 938,000 ballots from the county, which, by law, pays for and prints ballots.
In a letter sent to City Elections chief Lisa Artison, Walker said that he had "serious questions" about the need for that many ballots when the city reported having 382,000 registered voters in September.
Wisconsin radio show host Charlie Sykes observes:
The total population in Milwaukee: 596,974 in 2000 and 593,920 in 2004 The total number of people who are of legal voting age in Milwaukee in 2004: 423,811
Total votes cast in 2000 fall election: 245,670 Total votes cast in 2002 fall election: 141,351 (pre-registration of 335,889)
Okay, Team Bush. When does the President himself make a public statement about this? This appears to be a coordinated effort on the part of local officials to stuff the ballot box and make sure the votes of law-abiding Americans get cancelled out.
bttt
Breaking news? This has been posted several times in the last few days.
The political term for what the DIMS do EVERY election is:
"opening the graveyards."
Mayor Daley and Sam Giancana did it for JFK's election and Daley bragged that Chicago's corrupt vote is what got JFK elected! Of course, they pulled a Klintoon and had Giancana killed in prison to shut him up. (Vince Foster anyone?)
Not going to happen.
I was at an RCC meeting last night and informed that the Dems have 26,000 lawyers with a strategy to file lawsuits in nearly every county in the US, and tie-up the vote counting as much as they possibly can. We're talking near civil war proportions stuff here folks.
The use of provisional ballots will be a key component to create an "every vote counts" strategy to basically destroy the integrity of the voting process.
Vote. Make sure your friends and family vote. And be on guard. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
And don't forget LBJ's famous one-liner, "Who am I to deny a dead man his right to vote?"
new sign going up today:
YOU STOLE OUR BUSH SIGNS
DON'T STEAL OUR VOTE
will be 30x96. should get some attention.
please use if appropriate.
Darn, that's good! I like it well.
please use it and pass it along.
many thanks for your fraud posts. thought you might find it handy.
Will do- it's both terse, and clever.
Are there any freepers in the area who can serve as poll watchers? Take a camera and a note pad!
It has be come apparent that te motor voter registration is at the heart of all this fraud (SURPRISE!!!).
Maybe we should push this as an issue for corrective legislative action next term.
How Democrats Steal Elections - Top 10 Methods of Liberal Vote Fraud
1. Over-Voting. In Democrat strongholds like St. Louis, Philadelphia and Detroit, some precincts had 100% of their registered voters voting, with 99% of the ballots going to Gore. Clearly, multiple voting resulted in extra tallies for Gore in the 2000 election. (New York Post, 12/09/00).
2. Dead Voters. This classic Democratic method of vote fraud goes all the way back to 1960 in Chicago and Dallas. The 2000 election was no exception. In Miami-Dade County, for example, some of the 144 ineligible votes (those which officials actually admitted to) were cast by dead people, including a Haitian-American who's been deceased since 1977 (Miami-Herald, 12/24/00).
3. Mystery Voters. These "voters" cast votes anyway but are not even registered to vote. In heavily Democratic Broward County, for example, more than 400 ballots were cast by non-registered voters. (Miami-Herald 1/09/01)
4. Military ballots. Many of these votes were disqualified for the most mundane and trivial reasons. At least 1,527 valid military ballots were discarded in Florida by Democratic vote counters (Drudge Report, 11/19/00).
5. Criminals. Felons are a natural Democratic voter and they're protected on voter rolls across the country. In Florida at least 445 ex-convicts - including rapists and murderers -- voted illegally on November 7th. Nearly all of them were registered Democrats. (Miami-Herald 12/01/00)
6. Illegal aliens. These voters have long been a core liberal constituency, especially in California. In Orange County in 1996, Rep. Bob Dornan had his congressional seat stolen from him when thousands of illegal aliens voted for Loretta Sanchez (Christian Science Monitor, 9/2/97).
7. Vote-buying. Purchasing votes has long been a traditional scheme by Democrats, and not just with money. In the 2000 election in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Democratic workers initiate a "smokes-for-votes" campaign in which they paid dozens of homeless men with cigarettes if they cast ballots for Al Gore (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, 11/14/00).
8. Phantom Voters. These voters don't really exist, but their ballots do. In the 1996 Lousiana Senate race, GOP candidate Woody Jenkins had the election stolen from him when he discovered that 7,454 actual votes were cast but had no paper trail to authenticate them (Behind the Headlines, F.R. Duplantier, 4/27/97).
9. Dimpled chads. Those infamous punch-cards were a ballot bonanza for Al Gore. Democratic poll workers in Palm Beach, Dade and Broward counties tampered and manipulated thousands of ineligible ballots and counted them for Gore, even though no clear vote could be discerned. (NewsMax.com 11/27, 12/22, 11/18, 11/19/00).
10. Absentee ballots. Normally it's assumed that Republicans benefit from absentee ballots. But in the case of Miami's 1997 mayoral election, hundreds of absentee ballots were made for sale or sent out to non-Miami residents. Fraud was so extensive in the race that the final results were overturned in court (FL Dept. of Law Enforcement Report, 1/5/98)."

WE MUST FIGHT VOTE FRAUD!
Dimpled and hanging chads are often a result of situations where the LWV took and broke off the tips of the little punches, or, the dulled them or blunted them by rubbing on something abrasive or stiking them against a hard surface. Imagine how easy it it, grabbing many of them in a bundle and ruining several at a time. Then place them in the booths. No one would notice the systemic nature of the problem until its too late. Some of the voters with dimpled / hanging chads will fix them, and some who do not inspect their ballot card won't even notice it.
