LIBERALS IDENTIFY LIST OF FELON VOTERS PARTICIPATING IN ELECTION... CLAIM VICTORY

For months, state Republicans have insisted that hundreds of votes cast illegally by felons put Democrat Christine Gregoire in the governor's mansion.
But a Seattle Times analysis finds that even if those votes were disqualified, Gregoire would still prevail over GOP challenger Dino Rossi.
That finding undercuts what has been the most prominent element of the Republicans' case to overturn the election. The case moves to trial in Wenatchee tomorrow.
Gregoire won the election by a scant 129 votes and only after Rossi finished ahead in the first two of three vote counts. ...

The other day they were talking hundreds of illegal votes and I'm sure those votes would go at least 20 to 1 for the Rat.

The party submitted a list of 946 people it says were felons who voted illegally in the election. Assuming those felons voted proportionately the same as others in their precincts, the GOP argued that removing their votes from the tally would hand the election back to Rossi. Either the GOP lawyer is an idiot, or he's a Democrat.
Come to think of it, that might be redundant.

So the claim is that felons would vote just like anyone else in a precinct. So if a precinct is 55/45 Dem, 45% of the felons would vote Republican - right.
That is a joke and we all know it. Felons have a really good reason to vote Dem - it's called a get out of jail card.
So what should be done - easy, do a scientific poll of felons and compare their voting habits to those of the general public - see if they are 50/50, or, as we all know, more like 95/5.
P.S., my favorite trick of the Dems is when they call radio shows, claiming to be felons, and then say that they would (or do, depending on the state) vote Republican. Yea right.

But the Democrats followed with a list of their own, citing 794 illegal felon voters. And they concluded the opposite: Gregoire still wins. Using the "proportional deduction" method proposed by the Republicans, The Times' initially analyzed both lists, presuming they were entirely accurate. That approach showed Gregoire ahead by 112 votes.
Quick thought. The liberals wanted all the votes to count after elections (recounts) whereas they have no interest in counting votes for nominees. In this case they assert no advantage in the felon vote yet a major party goal is to legislate felon voting. Which way is up?

Don't tell me you don't believe a Dem when he or she claims to be a felon?

"That Poll has been done. 75% of felons vote Rat."
Thanks. A bit lower than I would have thought - but easily enough to turn the election.
Can anyone really say that Georgie won with a straight face, any more?

"Don't tell me you don't believe a Dem when he or she claims to be a felon?"
Hmmm - considering that their entire political philosophy consists of forcibly taking the hard-earned money of others, to spend as they wish - that certainly fits my definition of felon.
Let me correct myself, I have trouble believing a Dem when he claims NOT to be a felon - it's not possible.

I believe it's a PROVEN fact that felons who vote - vote democrat. Guess you didn't know that. And .. if the GOP had a specific number - they would probably have their registration records which would have shown they were registered as "democrats". Republicans don't register felons - because IT'S ILLEGAL.
So .. I think your characterization of the GOP lawyer is way off the mark.

It's not surprising that the Seattle Times would come out with this BS. It is as liberal a paper as the NY and LA Times.
Western Washington has become a Matriarchy. It is full of girly men and other assorted pantywaists that consistently vote for stronger women like P.(for pee) Murray, *I love my vagina* Cantwell and C.(for crusty) Gregoire.
Eastern Washingtonians feel like orphan children made to live in the pit under an outhouse.
