Twin Cities ^

What Maplewood giveth, Minneapolis taketh away. Elections officials in Minnesota's largest city today discovered that one precinct came up 133 ballots short of election day totals, resulting in a net loss for Democratic challenger Al Franken of 44 votes.

** Franken in - a delightful source of embarrassment for the Dems **

I hear ya.

Problem is ... the best I can tell, the ‘RATS know NO
embarrassment whatsoever!!

We need to do something so that issues like registering voters on the same day as they vote, lost ballots, Acorn related issues, noncitizens voting, noncitizens giving money to candidates, ending loopholes so that candidates can’t literally buy an election, ending the ability of people to drive from state to state to vote, taking the dead off of voter rolls ends. It is like a lost issue that no one wants to deal with.

LOL... nice!

Now that Chambliss won, the RATS have zero motivation to put up with the embarrassment of having Franklin on the National scene in Washington. Good bye you clown

I have to apologize for that mistake.

I called in to Jesse’s show one morning on my way to work.

We were talking, and I said “You should run for governor.” The next 50-100 calls were all “YEAH!!! You should run.” And then the rest was history.

It had been discussed before, but the day I did it, it seemed to pick up with folks.

(I’m not taking credit, as it wasn’t an original idea, and someone else would have started the tipping point, eventually, but I should have probably kept my mouth shut.)

first thing to do is if anyone wants to vote then they have to go in person and register not have some idiot from ACORN do it for them.

if they are not responsible in the fiorst place to go and register in person with the correct ID how can they be responsible to vote .

Also no more early voting, it’s election day and that is it.
here in Florida we have snowbirds from the north east who get an absentee in NY or MA and then drive down here to FL to vote again.
Also early voting means that one can vote in say MA and then drive down to their getaway vacation home and vote in that state too.

no more park benches either as homes

picture ID drivers license, plus a form of a bill saying the name and address and checked with the DMV on the election day

Not like NH where they just need a bill to register to vote

[manc]

agreed that happens in my state all the time,

north easterners voting in their state and then coming down here to vote again

it’s time that ended

plus if you register in person , what kind of lazy arse would let someone register for them

Thanks for the ping!

This election has become a comedy.

While true, actually, the Democrat Party has become a tragi-comedy in its own right (the Democrat[ick] Party to some).
