Sharron Angle's political team has accused Harry Reid of "stealing" the Nevada senatorial election, according to a blog on Babble.com. Even a popular trend on Google during the day Nov. 3 spoke of how popular Angle's argument was becoming.

On election night, Angle's team filed a complaint with the Justice Department saying casino owners were told to make sure their union members got out to vote on election night, as reported by Yahoo! News. Free Republic even posted pre-election polling data versus actual returns and made the revelation that Reid's son, Rory, is the county election commissioner for Las Vegas...

It is suspicious that the machines ONLY voted for Reid on their own.

[DJ MacWoW]

Do you find it suspicious that the “little” fish were voted out but the heavy hitters kept their seats?

[Jim Robinson]

Thank you very much, Allegra!!

[Jim Robinson]

I think Harry’s mob rigged the machines. Hell, they were blatantly caught with his name preselected on several machines. He deserves a term in the federal pen!

"I have listened to some of the newbees today and you are way off the mark.IMO

Newbie?

Hmmmmm.

Holder will prosecute Reid's Fraud, you're saying, then?

[Cacique]

btt

[DJ MacWoW]

I agree with that. But I don’t think he’s the only one.

Read this as one of the comments on The New Yorker article:

In the Congressional races 316,584 Democrats voted and 356,302 Republican voted Yet 361,172 voted for Harry Reid...... that is 44,588 more people than voted for Democrats for the House... And Sharon Angle received 320,622 and 356,302 voted for Republicans for the House, which makes 35680 less. I cannot imagine that many people voting for a Republican person for the House, and then turn around vote for a Democrat for the Senate... and that leaves thousands that apparently only voted for the Senate race. The math simply does not add up.

I’m saying that if they pull a NBPP stunt (if Angle can prove this), there is a House that is itching to hold hearings and send people to prison. I think the American people have spoken on this kind of activity by the Dums.

And just as an aside. Holder has cause Zero all kinds of trouble, who says he isn’t going to be part of the shake-up?

“I’ve little doubt that Reid stole the election but proving it will be difficult. This is why the majority of voter fraud cases go nowhere.”

Unless those committing voter fraud are held accountable this will continue with dire results. I can’t believe the republican hierarchy are not pursuing this. It has become almost an accepted practice of our electoral process.

Not telling them to vote, making sure that they have every opportunity to vote. The Army does this too. It is a right that servicemembers cannot be denied because they are stationed away from their home states. It is like the mail in one sense, the military is required to make this available to the servicemembers. If I remember correctly, this is one of the reasons the military has Chaplains. A servicemember cannot be denied the opportunity to practice their religion, if you are stationed BFE and there are no Pastors, Priests or Rabbis there, the military makes sure you can get access to one. To do otherwise would deny the servicemembers a basic right.

I vote on the same type of machines as in Vegas and the rest of Nevada. When you check in at the polling place the poll worker takes your ID(typically your sample ballot which has a bar code or your voter registration card or your state issued ID. They cannot demand your specific ID.) they then enter your info into a notebook computer which confirms you are at the right polling place and that you are a registered voter. it also tells the rest of the voting system that you have (or will) voted. They then issue you a credit card size card and in my County a double end eraser pencil. You then proceed to the touchscreen voting machine and put your card in. The screen comes up and asks you if you want Engrish or Spanish. Side bar - I have voted on these machine at least 6 times. The first thing I noticed about voting this time is that the screen change rate on the machine had increased dramatically from the last time I voted in the Spring. When you select Engrish if you double tap like your would in Windows to open a program the machine steps to the next screen very fast - guess which candidate is directly under the word “English” - that is right Harry Reid. So in one split second you have opened the screen to the first candidate page and selected Reid. AFTER your are done voting of which there were about 6 pages in my County you then hit a CONFIRM button and review your selections on about three screens. THEN you can hit print and a paper print out on a tape comes up on the right side of the machine. You can REVIEW there before you cast your vote. The machine retains the printout. You then have to select "cast my ballot" before the machine records the vote. You then remove the card and return it to the poll worker. The machine cancels the card when you cast your vote. I tried it in another machine about three years ago and it would not take it. One item of note all of the video I saw from Vegas showed people using their fingers on the touchscreen. I suspect it is even easier to accidentally select Reid.

I am not saying there was not tampering but it would be very difficult to do the rest of the system is very secure with many checks and balances. It was initially set up by Dean Heller a Rep and a very good guy.

Wow, he just pulled those votes out of his azzzz.

[TigersEye]

We won’t miss you in CO.

Historically vote fraud involves extra time in order to get the fix in. They extended vote time because of this and a shortage of ballots

[The Comedian]

I sense the approach of a "no standing" proclamation by a black-robed tyrant.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

"And just as an aside. Holder has cause Zero all kinds of trouble, who says he isn’t going to be part of the shake-up?"

Yeah; he's to The Messiah, what Janet Rino was to Clinton.....and we know how THAT went.

There's no way Holder will prosecute HIGH LEVEL Democrat vote fraud, period.

Holder MAY move on The Messiah WHEN he's told to do so, by the Progressives who don't want "Obama" on the top of the ticket in 2012 (and THAT may happen).

[Fundamentally Fair]

The military is big on having people vote.

The military is big on people having the opportunity to vote. I never had to followup and confirm that I did vote. I never had to justify not voting.

[Nateman]

Interesting take. How does the math work out in other states?

[Nateman]

It would be pretty bizarre to say Angle has no standing!
