[#OH12]Democrats requesting more absentee ballots than Republicans for special election
The Columbus Dispatch ^ | 29-July-2018 | By Jack Torry

WASHINGTON — As next week’s 12th Congressional District special election draws near, Democrats continue to outperform Republicans in early voting — one indication that the “enthusiasm gap” between the parties is alive and well in central Ohio.

Article was published in late July. However, I have an update from this paper from this morning that 'Republican Richardson' is almost the certain winner.

Article has numbers on ABSENTEE ballots, which may be important until the election is finalized.

This newspaper is naming Republican Richardson as the 'almost certain winner' as of 9:47 AM this morning...

Well, those are used for cheating, what do you expect? R's don't have the balls to cheat.

The GOP turnout everywhere in these primaries has been lower overall than the Dem turnout for their primary candidates. We need to change this.

The RNC and Trump have got to start working on the GOTV (Get Out The Vote) aspect or we are going to lose.

Well, ya know, those old-school, Christian, WWII era old folk are certainly, overwhelmingly Democrats. At least their single mommie care givers say they are...

Stop the mail in vote, stop motor voter, no more E vote or E vote counting and require photo ID for ALL voters, no exceptions and require all votes be counted by three separate groups of people before releasing results. These are the only steps that can be taken to ensure our Constitutional Representative Republic will ever survive in tact. If the voting system remains as is, the USA will, without question, end up in the dust bins of history.

I think I've got it correct now with that special election for HOR in a district near Columbus, OH. The HOR rep in place resigned and left early, but too late for there to be a proper primary. It's a not unheard trick in OH so the voters don't get to choose a candidate; it's given to someone the leadership owns. Thus, the Kasick-led Republican leadership scum (which doesn't even pretend to represent Republican voters in OH) got to choose a candidate who is opposed to almost all Trump/Deplorable principles. A Kasick Party hack. Thus, there was NO early enthusiasm from true Republican voters to get early ballots. Yup, Kasick and his traitorous buddies would rather lose a sure Congressional seat than let Republican little folk choose a candidate.

So, President Trump showed up last week and turned it into quite a rally for someone Republican voters don't like. And maybe pulled out the election. At one point this fool Balderson (sp?) even contended (to appease Kasick) that he didn't invite President Trump to his rally!

Kasick is so obviously a lapdog for the Deep State that hates us. I have no doubt in spite his denials that he thought he'd be Jeb's VP running mate.

This is my interpretation of the situation. Kasick can't fade into oblivion soon enough. He's evil.

Of course they are. That’s how voter fraud works.

Absentee Ballots are a gateway to voter fraud. That is one reason blue states like California no longer have polling places in some/most areas. Absentee ballots can be manufactured/found post election day. This stuff has got to stop! (Maybe the coming civil strife will take care of that problem most effectively.)

...and no registering to vote on the day of the election.

When I was growing up in Illinois, IIRC, the requirement was you had to register three months before the election.

Russian collusion over elections? When there’s Democrats involved everyone, including the Dems themselves, knows it ain’t Russians stealing votes and manipulating ballots!

There's no chain of custody when they're mailed to the voter and mailed back. In the May election, there were three problems with them. (1) some people requested them, but didn't get them. Even if they hadn't yet been mailed in, those people had to vote provisional (2) some people thought they could walk in with the absentee ballot on election day or mail it in on election day. The only way they could get it counted would've been to turn it in "downtown" before polls close. (3)nothing to stop mischief such as getting grandma with dementia to request a ballot then fill it in for her.

In OH, they've added so many layers that it's impossible for anyone to follow the whole process. My favorite experience: I went downtown by bus to vote a few days early because I was a poll worker in a different town. I had to show a photo ID plus proof of age to get the Senior bus discount. I got to vote showing a utility bill with my name and address on it!

It is all the “Get out the vote” type groups the democrats have that are behind this. And they are involved in a ton of illegal activities. They have been even been caught filling out ballots, but the MSM does not report it. No legitimate entity actually looks for the fraud either. The system has been intentionally set up so that as a whole they will not get found out. In many states the records are legally destroyed a short time after the election. Just look up the videos on the Tarrant County Texas vote fraud from a few years back. It is hard to believe, but documented.

Early voting is the worst when it comes to fraud.

***************

That’s part of it but they also know that if they did they would be roasted by the media. Dems on the other hand, when caught cheating, get their usual pass from the press and therefore have no fear of getting caught. They know their allies in the media will look the other way.
