is there no level to which these Dems won't sink????????

[Sthitch]

Ah, more supporting of the troops by the left.

Disgusting!

If the numbers of votes are even, does the incumbent keep the job?

Liberals believe illegal aliens should be able to vote, but not citizens in the military.

This really is a big story, and will therefore be published on page 43, if at all.

I think this sailor's constitutional rights were violated. What right does anyone have to know how he voted? It was the fact that they knew how he voted that enabled the Dems to get it thrown out. If they did not know how he voted, then there would have been no way they could have known that they could have altered the election by objecting to it.

Did you ping Hannity, Rush, etc?

Thanks for the post - I e-mailed Irene "I'm A Liberal Democratic Bitch" Stein of my extreme outrage!

THe argument seems to be that they "voted" after the polls had closed.

But in the past, judges have ruled to keep polls open AFTER closing, when they "determined" that circumstances were making it hard for the voters to get to the polls on time -- for example, in 2000 polls just in St Loius, Missouri were kept open long enough to get enough extra democrat votes for Ashcroft to lose the election.

If I were to use the ruling of the New Jersey Supreme Court in 2002, when they threw out legislatively-dictated deadlines to allow Lautenberg onto the ballot, I would say that the "spirit" of deadlines were not hard and fast requirements, but rather were simply meant to guarantee we could have an orderly election, and since the ballot was returned in time to be counted, the spirit of "letting every vote count" would override the pesky "voting date" written into the law.

But the democrats are always arguing both sides of the issues, based on politics. The Democrat party, and move-on et.al., ran a strong campaign to support "non-partisan" redistricting in Ohio, while at the very SAME time ran a strong campaign AGAINST "non-partisan" redistricting in California.

Outrageous! Judges like him/her should be impeached treason.

[A.A. Cunningham]

The judge based his ruling on precedent.

[Tzimisce]

More support for the troops I see. The Dems should be very proud.

Well, we have a situation here where the candidate took advantage of the late date for return of military absentees by sending the ballot out after the election had taken place and the results were known.

I would think the elections board, however, would not permit absentees to be distributed after a date a few days before the election anyway. In principle, I can't object to the ruling, although I can't speak to the letter of the law.

It is most interesting, though, that the Democratic party is at a point where it feels there are no negative reprecussions from acting this way.
