Why do we NEVER see the persons who committ these voter frauds?

Good Question ... Where are these people?

[BigSkyFreeper]

Take your pissing match elsewhere.

[gopwinsin04]

'Mr. Chariman' he speaker says..of what, a Kangaroo court?

[dead]

I'm done.

[You Dirty Rats]

Nice work, catching Wexler like that. It looks like he doesn't know his positions on machines any better than his Buchanan Brigadiers know how to vote!

Personally, I always thought Wexler was right. The botched voting in PBC probably DID cost Gore the State. Too bad, losers.

[Mo1]

Here comes the the real dirt on what they think about Constitutional rights

[gopwinsin04]

Everyone voted with provisional ballots, this discussion is useless by their panel.

[Howlin]

I couldn't figure out what the beef was; I've seen that graphic before and nobody said a word.

[traderrob6]

Polls open 12 hours+ 1600 divided by 12 = 133. So each hour all they had to is get 133 voter thru with 2 machines. Not that difficult, jeeeez

[Howlin]

This guy admits that the NAACP hasn't been able to "teach" blacks how to vote.

I'm trying to remember who "taught" me.

[Peach]

My husband is a poll manager and anyone who has trouble voting receives help.

The electronic machines let you review your vote and if it says Bush and you meant it to say Kerry, you back out of it with arrows and change your vote.

There's no way this stuff is going on.

[finnman69]

Dunno about you, but I don't think it takes much more than a minute to vote.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

I am not complaining about that. If anybody can project their own racist biases onto a post, and misconstrue it as a negative, it's just easier to pull it from the forum than to be forced to defend it logically.

The problem is you can't defend this kind of bias logically and the other problem is you didn't pull it, the mods pulled your very offensive post.

[jamz]

You're giving college students too much credit...hehe.

Heck...I'd bet 1500 of the 1600 hadn't sobered up by 3pm. So, ending the vote at 3am seems about right to allow 12 hours of voting. Instead of 7am-7pm...they just did 3pm-3am. Extra hour after "last call" at the local bars to get back and vote as well.

[gopwinsin04]

As I understand everyone at Kenyon was given the option to wait and vote or cast a provisional ballot. (no matter how late it was)

Make Election Day a national holiday or move it to a weekend if lines are a problem.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Nobody should have to be taught how to vote. If they don't know how, or they can't read, they shouldn't be voting. Shades of Florida and the arrow on the butterfly ballot.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

I am not the one continuing this, I have been merely responding to comments made to me.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

LOL, my apologies. I think we are through.

[Chuck54]

Enough!
