More than 600,000 on Massachusetts Voter Rolls Had Died or Moved, Nonpartisan Analysis Discovered Monday, January 18, 2010 By Fred Lucas, Staff Writer

(CNSNews.com) - Massachusetts had 116,483 dead people on its voter registration rolls and another 538,567 people who were no longer living at the addresses on their registrations, according to a study released Oct. 28, by Aristotle International Inc., a nonpartisan political technology and data firm.

On Tuesday, Massachusetts will hold a special U.S. Senate election between Democrat Martha Coakley and Republican Scott Brown. Polls show a close race.

Alicia Moran, spokeswoman for Aristotle, told CNSNews.com on Monday that people should be cautious about drawing any conclusions from the company’s late October analysis about the quality of the Massachusetts voter registration rolls going into Tuesday’s special U.S. Senate election. That is because states, including Massachusetts, typically do end-of-the-year purges of their voter-registration rolls. Some states, but not Massachusetts, have already provided Aristotle with updated voter registration rolls.

“Massachusetts hasn’t released numbers to us, but other states have,” Moran said Monday.

The office of the secretary of state of Massachusetts was closed on Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday.

Aristotle did its study by comparing government lists of people who have moved or died with state voter registration rolls. The company has done a similar study of what it calls voter-registration “deadwood” every year since 2000.

Awesome! That means ACORN can steal the race. I knew they’d find a way to pull it out. No worries.

Maybe if Brown wins the dems, who knew this already, will head straight to the courts to nullify the results based on their own corrupt practices.

That could tie things up for months.

Swell.

It will be interesting to see if the people of the state go “Iran” if Brown loses. His LOSS could prove to be the shot heard around the world.

Everything is falling into place.

The top pollsters are predicting a very close race, a toss-up as it were. And now we have the swing votes that will determine the final outcome, courtesy ACORN.

Get ready, Obama is already savoring his newly found healthcare mandate! How can it be a mandate, you ask?

Well, after us being fed these massive win predictions by *everyone* in media (even the left, for goodness sakes), and the MA electorate turns out and votes the Democrat anyway, then it will be that Massachussetts found its groundswell of support for Obama and his policies.

Having been accused of spin last Friday, I want to reiterate, this is my prediction of how the Brown defeat will be spun, post-loss.

One other point: this is almost word-for-word a rehash of NY, and we got obliterated there in 11/2009.

Suddenly the polls pulled close then the Dem had the edge going into the election.

Pray for Brown, but be prepared to suffer from legislative itis all the way to November.

This just in....600,000 ballots were found. It appears that these are breaking heavily in Coakley’s favor. /sarc

MA can’t purge this deadwood. The deadwood are the most consistent voters in MA. If they were purged, MA would likely turn purple or even, gasp!, blue.

Gotta be more than that. Massachusetts — or is that Massachusettes? whatever — has been around for centuries.

I last voted in Massachusetts while I was home on leave from the Navy in the late 1960’s. I wonder if my name is still on the rolls after fifty years.

I wonder if Acorn is using my name? Or those of my deceased parents. Yuck! Maybe I should get the voter's equivalent of FreeCreditReport.com working on this. Probably a good idea to call my home town tomorrow.
