Which has nothing to do with the supposed Bradley Effect.
In my town dems working for the Supervisor Of Elections run computer lists of registered voters who do not usually vote and pass them to the local Dem party headquarters.
Then the dems submit bogus absentee ballots for those names and they do it as soon as extended voting opens up so that their vote is the one that is registered.
If the real voter tries to vote after that they are not allowed to place a real, binding vote, no matter what kind of ID or documentation they offer.
If they push the issue they are allowed to submit a Provisional vote and told it may or may not be accepted after an investigation on the double vote is conducted.
But the investigation rarely, if ever, seems to take place.
We stumbled on this scam in the 2000 election when I convinced my sister-in-law to vote after many years of sitting on the sidelines.
At the polling place she was not allowed to vote because an absentee ballot had already been submitted in her name.
She explained that she had not submitted a previous ballot but it did no good.
I called the county Republican party and they sent someone to the polling place to document the fraud.
Only then did the Supervisor of Elections permit a Provisional Ballot to be cast but they clerks were very surly and rude about it.
The woman more or less in charge was highly P.O.’d when they had to permit the Provisional vote and the challenge to the bogus ballot.
The person the Republican party sent to help us out clued me in on the scam.
My sister-in-law later asked to see the absentee ballot that had been submitted in her name but was told she had no authority to see the document!
She filed a complaint with the state but never heard from anyone.
Just think how many votes they steal nationwide in every election with scams like this.
more appropriate....
> GOP is already talking about postponing the convention because of that LITTLE RAIN
Won’t happen. They have too many payments committed to those dates, to say nothing of the delegates flight tickets for this week.
Now, I could believe that they could have so thematic revisions to the agenda, to tone down on the celbratory aspects.
