There were no places where anybody got more than 100% of the registered vote.

In the one instance cited here, every fact was wrong. The reality — Obama got 51% of the vote in a location where 57% of the “registered voters” voted, or 65% of the “eligible” voters.

There are many places where they have done a lousy job of cleaning up the voter registration roles, so you will find registrations exceeding the number of eligible voters.

This happens especially in college towns, because kids will register to vote, then they will graduate and move away, but nobody bothers to remove them.

Theoretically, these college students could come back to the college, and vote, because their names would be on the roles. But having that possibility is a far cry from showing it has happened.

I checked out one precinct in Richmond that was called out in one of these many “fraud” lists; I found that the precinct has historically never voted republican; in fact, it is in an area so democrat that there was no republican running for a state house seat in that precinct for one election. And as far as statewide, the total republicans voting in that precinct was never more than 6; in 2012, 3 voted for Romney.

The real question is why anybody is surprised that there are inner-city tenement house precincts, 100% black, where there would be nobody voting for Romney. We get hardly any black votes to begin with, and these are the poor, government-dependent people that are most likely to vote democrat anyway.

And there aren’t any republicans looking to live in these hell-holes. It’s not like nice neighborhoods which are mostly republican, but which are attractive enough that idiot liberals WANT to move in. None of us are looking to try to integrate a slum.

It would statistically improbable that a candidate would get no votes. That would imply error-free voting and mean that not one person made a decision to the contrary. You would have zombies voting if that was the case.
