More evidence of Republican voter suppression.

 

Already preparing to lose. Are they able to call the complaints in or are they recorded on the spot somewhere...in person?

For like ten years, every time I went in to vote they had no record of me, even though I hadn't moved, gotten married or divorced and had everything in order. I pointed it out every time, on the spot, and they straightened it out. Then the same thing the next election. It never failed...local or national...no record. But I had my voter registration card.

what is a write in?

A write in is when you don't like either person running and you write in the person you prefer.

If anybody is interested in meaningless figures the NYT has some fancy  calculations currently giving a 52 % chance Jones wins - ohh just dropped to 51% - oh no back to toss up.

Now back to 51% with a margin of 0.4% points. Based on 2% of votes counted.

Sadly while I won't bet a penny on these figures - I am one of those sad individuals who will sit here for hours watching meaningless changes in these numbers.

I really need to get a life

Unfortunately the same doesn't seem to be applied to minorities. This has been well-documented.

So, we automatically blame their problems on racists. Makes all the sense in the world to me. It's the same logic as all Mexicans are illegal and all Muslims are terrorists.

I don't expect you to see the similarities...

For a time in Northern Ireland if you turned up to vote and you couildn't - sometimes because you had already voted earlier that day, or someone else letting on to be you had voted on your card - the clerks gave you a polling sheet anyway - I was never convinced this 'replacement sheet' actually counted.

In Northern Ireland at that stage the saying "Vote Early Vote Often' was a common refrain.

BTW numbers turned to 51% chance Moore going to win. at 7% of count.

Over the years I became very familiar with the people who worked the election in our precinct. It happened to a disabled friend of mine and was thoroughly checked out...the earlier vote was made null and void. I guess they didn't think he would make the effort to show up in person and vote. The replacement sheet, with his verifiable information, was used.

Rural votes (Moore's strength) will come in quicker.

I just saw that, their "dials" are jumping up and down. I just saw where Jones has a 90% chance! WTH is going on here?
