Coakley campaign casts doubt on election 'integrity'.
Politico ^ | January 19, 2010 | Ben Smith

The Coakley campaign just advised an urgent press conference with campaign lawyer Mark Elias to "discuss integrity of election."

The campaign is complaining of "multiple independent reports of ballots being given to voters pre-marked for Republican Scott Brown."

Greg Sargent has two of those reports, and isn't making all that much of them; in general, it's worth being extremely wary of these election-day claims from both sides.

This is tantamount to 'Coakley admits defeat'.

This is the Dems' fallback strategy of legally contesting the election long enough to pass Obamacare with Kirk still in place.

Yes, it was right here where we found the extra million votes for me.
An election official forgot that he left them there...

This is right out of the DemocRAT playbook. Accuse the other candidate of doing something you are doing. Despicable!

Let me guess... this is happening in DNC-controlled polling places, correct? Yeah, that seems plausible. /s

Holy cats, have the polls even closed yet? If they’re already shrieking that the election was “stolen” they must be losing big.

Yes indeed - has the stench of a setup job. They're playing with fire for even thinking about such a stunt.

The Dems only do this to prepare us for what they’re already doing themselves. BTT.

Let me guess...next comes “disinfranchised minorities” that were afraid to vote because they saw a cop car on the way to the polls.

The old broad thought she was entitled to the job, and she was too incompetent and lazy to work for it.
