This is the day we've been waiting for! Go vote and take a friend.

[ScottinVA]

Go vote and take a friend.

Because you KNOW the dark side is doing exactly that... and their friends include "voters" from out of state.

Wisconsin: Absentee ballots and early voting ready

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.

[tflabo]

Interest level is so high that even dead Chicago Dems have applied for absentee ballots.
In fact they vote ‘absentee’ in every election.

[bjc]

So what is the process for checking the legitimacy of these absentee ballots?

[Red Badger]

I wonder how many of the absentee ballots requested online are all going to the same e-mail address?.................

[Forty-Niner]

I wonder if Eric Holder got his absentee ballot yet.....I heard he sent James O’keffe for his ....no ID required!

[Vaduz]

Why not the Government Accountability Board is useless anyway.

So what is the process for checking the legitimacy of these absentee ballots?

They have to be previously registered and on the rolls of the municipality where they are issued. Obviously (by court order) no photo ID is required, but they must be witnessed & signed.

[Thommas]

Other clerks, too, said their offices have received numerous absentee ballot requests from campaigns or political activists on behalf of voters.

This is precisely how the Democratic operatives get their dead voters to vote. Having been previously registered, these patriotic Democrats get to vote in perpetuity, thankfully, because racist ID verification is so very illegal. /sarc

5,000 Democrat votes....that will be duplicated by in-person votes, again, and again, and again....

Not including several trunkloads of D votes in reserve, if necessary, AFTER the count.

[dainbramaged]

Are the vote counters union members?

[PapaBear3625]

The ballot requests in Madison already overshot the 5,223 absentee ballots issued for this month’s recall primaries, and nearly half of the 12,121 absentee ballots received in the 2010 November election.

Lots of Madison college students who don't plan on being in Madison after classes end. They will likely vote absentee from Madison, vote again from their off-campus residence, and vote a third time from home.

[Wizdum]

I wonder how many of those ballots belong to legitimate WI voters, or are the thugs going to steal the election by proxy?

[afraidfortherepublic]

The vote counters are machines. The municipal representives who man and woman the polls are paid, per diem, temp workers.

Could someone tamper with the machines? I suppose it is possible.

This is precisely how the Democratic operatives get their dead voters to vote

The Scott Walker campaign and/or the Republican Party of Wisconsin have sent me at least 3 mailings of a form that allows me to reequest an absentee ballot to be mailed to my house. If that ballot does not come today, I'm going down to vote in person, since I'll be out of town for the election.

[afraidfortherepublic]

They will likely vote absentee from Madison, vote again from their off-campus residence, and vote a third time from home.

I'm afraid that that is possible. But we are watching...

[mimaw]

I was the first to vote absentee at the clerks office in my village this am.

[afraidfortherepublic]

Hoping to vote this PM. Congratulations.

[Yulee]

If they came in person to request an absentee ballot, why didn’t they vote when they came in? Sound really suspicious. Vote absentee, and then vote in person. Vote early...vote twice.
