When asked how Perry could have succeeded in not switching the books—since he and other Democrats refused to cooperate with his request on the grounds that they believed it was illegal—McInnis replied that he worked with Sen. Cochran’s sister-in-law—the election commissioner in Hinds County—to get the job done. “Connie Cochran is the election commissioner,” McInnis said.

To do this, they will need access to the Democrat books. How will they accomplish that?

OK I’ll remember to not mistake you for a mature adult
I like your 'big picture' train of thought,though not your conclusion. Some version of amnesty would pass the Senate in 2015 even with a Republican Senate majority. The House is the only hope.
Maybe they freaked after the Cantor rout. they know what it means better than even cantor does, better than Brat does, and they couldn’t risk the morale boost to the conservatives, plus they knew they could pull off a Mississippi win.
Compare the headlines:
McDaniel gets the big nod form the republican base/voters
VS:
Cochran ...well, you know
Let us not forget they are now defunding Brat out there.
I think they took this chance because Cantor lost and Yertl McConnell vowed the TEA party would not win even one (senate) race. If the TEA party could take down another RINO, they felt it would be open season on RINOs and McConnell would look like an idiot. The TEA party would build up so much momentum perhaps other incumbents would lose and the GOPe would never be able to get their treasured immigration reform passed.
Just got in the door. I gotta catch up before replying.
"But McDaniel faces a daunting road ahead. Several national groups who helped fund his challenge to Cochran have signaled the election is over, referring to the result in past tense, and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), an icon on the right who stayed neutral during the primary, said, “I look forward to working with Thad.”
The Democrats’ best shot in Mississippi

“McDaniel supporters are irate that Cochran won a GOP primary by reaching across the aisle. Now some of his backers are ambivalent about whether they’ll come out at all in November — and if they don’t, that could create a rare opening for a Democrat here.”
P.S., We're on the same side.
Ugh.
It’s from the article.
They are baiting conservative criticism for Cruz and people are falling into it.
It’s going to get a whole lot worse and some sophistication is going to be necessary.
These people fight dirty with everyone, except dems.
anyone criticizing him needs to point out exactly what they want him to do, including ending up standing next to Lorne Michaels being parodied by Tina Fey’s cohorts.
We love Sarah, but not everyone can get out of office and opine at will
How can it be proven that they didn’t vote for McDaniel? That’s my point. What happens if it is shown that a sufficient number of votes were illegal? I do have a serious question: what happens next?
Simple answer:
1. MS voters do not register by political party. Everyone is on the same list (voter roll).
2. Each political party gets a copy of the list in the form of a set of books (pollbooks). Each precinct has two sets of pollbooks: one for Democrats, one for Republicans.
3. The Dems recorded in their pollbooks that their voters voted in their primary on 6/3. The Republicans did the same for their voters in their pollbooks.
4. When there is a runoff election, the parties switch pollbooks (remember, it’s the exact same list of voters) so the poll workers verifying voter registrations for the runoff can see at a glance whether or not a voter is ineligible because he voted in the opposing party’s primary.
I can show you a pic if you like.
They had access when they switched pollbooks.
When the election was over, each precinct sent the ballots and both sets of pollbooks to the corresponding circuit clerk. The clerk has control over the books from then on. Perry and Cochran lose all say over the books when they ship/drive/fly them to the clerk.
“Cochran should concede and disqualify himself. The co-conspirators need to serve prison time. What did the Senator know and when did he know it?”
Bump that!
WHO is defunding Brat?
My memory is he ran his primary for @ $100K. I can’t imagine him needing a whole lot now to win the general.
His district GOP has taken their money meant for GOTV and gave it to the RNC or something.
I hate to say bombshell but this is pretty big news if this democrat election official is correct about the voting corruption.
