Hey Freepers,

How about a thread of 2010 Election Voter Guides and Score Cards for some quick facts on incumbent voting records?

Score Cards are a great way to learn how incumbents have voted in the past on issues. Politicians will say anything to get re-elected, but they can't deny their voting records, if you have the facts in hand.

Don't forget to pass this along to your friends and family before Tuesday!

Here are a few to start with:

AFA is conservative, christian & pro-family. The SBE appears to be pro-business and pro-entreprenuerial organization. I've been familiar with the AFA for more than 20 years and I trust and respect them. I just discovered the SBE about a week ago, so I'm a little hesitant to vouch for them. Sorry, don't know anything else about them. Anybody else have any info on them?

American Family Association (AFA) - U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate - http://www.afaaction.net/ChooseState.aspx

The Small Business and Entrepreneurship Council (SBE Council) - Small Business Scorecard of the 111th Congress - http://www.sbecouncil.org/scorecard/


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Constitution/Conservatism; Government
KEYWORDS: 2010elections; 2010midterms; afa; alaska; business; california; colorado; delaware; economy; georgia; massachusetts; nevada; newyork; northcarolina; nra; scorecards; southcarolina; texas; vanity; virginia; voterguides
Sorry, can't reply tonight. It's way best bed time.

when you are asking for a scorecard, you mean any insight on our local elections? for example,I am on the Florida Southwest Coast, a dominant red landscape. No need for voter fraud worry here! {thank god for the massive over 55 crowd}!

No, actually I was hoping everyone would help out with scorecards and voter guides prepared by organizations that rate candidates based on their voting records.

Actually, I also have been looking for printable “score” sheets for Governor, House, and Senate elections. Would really like to mark things as they happen...

Anyone know of the availability of these?

Even the evil Daily Kossacks admit the fort may be lost.

Not looking for a voting location...(been there, done that). Was wanting to keep score on election night - Governors, House, and Senate. Really was wanting to laugh and enjoy the crying and pissing down the leg of the liberals.

Thanks though, good information.

A tracking chart for Hurricane KaTEAna would be helpful. Looks like the eye of the storm is taking a direct course for the White House and is due to make landfall tomorrow afternoon and remain stationary for the next two years. A high pressure area over the House of Representatives is building. The northeastern eyewall is predicted to gain strength over the Potomic River and cause flooding at the Department of Education. The President and most other communist operatives are evacuating to India in a fleet of 40 aircraft.

Heh...love you for that! Great comparison. Maybe I should look for TEA storms instead of voting patterns...heh.

Really great statement...thank you, looking forward to Tuesday!

Astrology also spells trouble for Obama. Jupiter is opposite a Black Hole in the Utopian Galaxy. Also a rare alignment of the Constellation Unicorn in conjunction with Uranus portends great losses for the Gay Rights activists. Orions belt seems to be dropping below his knees and his pants are on the ground. This can be interpreted as leading to cuts in welfare. These omens all point to Republican victory.

Heh, you spend way too much of you life making up stories about Obama... Heck, maybe you should start an internet site and continue your forecasts... I would read them...ha.

At any rate, at least your stating the obvious... which would never enter the minds of the liberals.

Thanks, Texas Alliance for Life is a great pro-life organization from what I’ve always heard.

By the way, here’s the NRA’s site and their list of “Grades and Endorsements” for the 2010 elections: NRA Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) - http://www.nrapvf.org/ Just click on your state.

(I won’t even begin to discuss how they support some many ‘rats who are so liberal on every other issue but are endorsed over far more conservative candidates.)

I was wanting a scorecard to track the elections as well. I guess we have to make our own.
