These people are also largely idiots. Not even one mistake?
And they managed to get 90%+ turnout?
And this just happens to be in precincts where they expelled the Republican poll watchers?
Smells bad to me.
If the whole reason you show up to go vote is to vote for Obama I'm not sure how you'd screw that up. And folks who are illiterate can receive assistance. I've not heard the "no poll observer" argument but if Romney didn't have any, he was an idiot - that said I'm not sure why these results are strange. Lilly white John Kerry got 88% of the black vote nationally in 2004 - and since that's an average that suggests that in a lot of areas he got well over 90% and possibly 100% of the black vote. Obama is obviously more popular among blacks than Kerry was. So not only does this not seem strange to me, but it seems kind of obvious.
If true, that is suspicious.
I heard all kinds of crazy allegations about Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, I went to the Board of Elections website and found almost all of the crazy stuff to be false.
Now I am not defending Philly. I just wonder if anyone has looked.
