[deadrekon10]

[deadrekon10]

there trying to side skirt the issue,the issue is people can go and vote a 1,000 dead people if they want

this is a big fucking joke america

elections are full of fraud and people are EXPOSING IT and we are changging it

[deadrekon10]

this is completley missing the fucking point!!!!!!!! dead people can vote that is voting fraud and you dont hear al saying we should be stopping dead people voting

[cunaeus22]

Doesn't Sharpton think people will actually watch the whole video and see that he doesn't take the ballots? That the guy doesn't take the ballot, says he has to go get his id (although he is told repeatedly that they won't need any identification)

[concretefuzzynuts]

Sharpton is an idiot and a joke.

[nailo1]

i agree with al but

KEEFE ISN'T GOING TO BE PROSECUTED

he never is

[ParrhesiaJoe]

HOW ABOUT... have dead people taken off the list... Oh, WAIT... that's supposed to be happening.

But Vote Fraud is NOT a problem in America... except when he was bitching that Bush got the 2000 election because of vote fraud.

[VRAdmin]

@ParrhesiaJoe - In Florida in 2000 there WERE people removed from the polls, even though they shouldn't have been, there is proof that this happened. In Ohio 2004, there are facts to show more voting machines in Republican districts than Democratic ones. This is all empirical data proving both elections were fraudulent. You have no proof, just a hunch and a stunt with a man, a camera, and a YouTube account. That is not proof that this happens, it just proves it can happen, HUUUUUUGE difference.

[ParrhesiaJoe]

@VRAdmin I worked on collaboration software for years. If there is a bug in the system, it will be exploited.

If I had designed the New Hampshire system, and this bug had been uncovered, I would have lost my job. The simplicity of the fix would really suggest a criminal level of negligence if I failed to catch it.

After all, this IS the most important election in the world.

[ParrhesiaJoe]

@VRAdmin I'm not saying I'm certain that vote fraud occurred... but we cannot leave any doubt, and this sloppyness engenders doubt. We need to be sure, and we need to be able to show the detractors the meticulous effort we applied to making sure we got it right. In the video, the coordinator said that they go through obituaries and get death records from the state. That's appropriate. Why, then, were there dead people still on the list... from over a year back in some cases.

[theultimaterockr]

Sharpton's poor people bit is more or less invalid because most states would provide them and they would be fairly cheap if not. The DNC want illegals and everyone else to vote for them because their candidate has such a piss poor record.

[stupidamericanz]

I can see why no one watches Obama's news network. Just look at their numbers Ha Ha

[Copperfoilhat]

The MSM does not like competition.

[crwlarry3356]

Spitfireof fatj has to be the dumbest person to ever comment. My God what a fool.

[liodileon1]

Its simple; arrest those who fraudulently take a ballot. This will deter fraud.

[VRAdmin]

Showing something is possible does not prove it happens.

Taking away the right to vote of millions of people because of the fear that 1 person may "fraudulently vote" is ludicrous. We need to make it EASIER to vote, NOT HARDER. The problem with our elections is not enough people are voting, NOT that some unicorn/Sasquatch mythical "fraudulent" voter is out there.

[InvestigatorDave]

Al says there is no problem with voter fraud. He presents no evidence to support this, but claims it. O'Keefe shows how easily he obtained over 12 ballots in NH, but Al still makes his claim. Seem incongruous?

Al says that photo ID laws would keep 21 million from voting (nationwide? in NH? Not clear.). He presents no evidence for that, and ignores the logical: voters can get photo ID and then vote.

[SpitfireOFatj]

@InvestigatorDave Listen up, the whole issue of "voter fraud" is a fake issue. Republicans and FOX "News" are trying to claim the only reason Obama won was because of ACORN and people voting who "shouldn't" to freak out their STUPID White Male Base who puff their chests out with pride over believing they are Kings of their Castles and all others are inferior.

It just bugs the HELL out of that type that some "loser" gets their vote counted equally.

[InvestigatorDave]

@SpitfireOFatj Did you watch the clip? In the NH primary, O'Keefe got 12 ballots. That proves there is potential for voter fraud. Does it happen? Yes. How much? Don't know. Still, why not work to prevent it?

Can you direct me to the clip from FNC where in the claim "the only reason Obama won was bcs of ACORN ..."?

Preventing voter fraud should be in the interest of everyone. Why would you, personally, be against preventing voter fraud?

[SpitfireOFatj]

@InvestigatorDave "Why would you, personally, be against preventing voter fraud?"

Preventing something that doesn't happen?

I know you idiots feel threatened outside of your FOX "News" bubble but the fact is that Obama won the last election by over 10,000,000 votes and it wasn't from "election fraud" or ACORN. It's because Republicans had just lied us into a war and then crashed the economy.

[InvestigatorDave]

@SpitfireOFatj Again I ask, "Did you watch the clip?" O'Keefe got 12 ballots proving the potential for fraud. There are instances of voter fraud each election, and Al's guest spoke of one in particular. Still claiming it doesn't happen? Against the evidence it does?

As for the ad homs: not needed. Name calling, and insults don't advance the debate.

Who says I watch FNC? Your evidence?

Who is challenging Obama's victory? Not me.

And this has nothing to do with GOP. Voter fraud effects all

[SpitfireOFatj]

@InvestigatorDave "Again I ask, "Did you watch the clip?""

Of course. It shows a jackass who looked up recently deceased people and showed up to vote using their names.

If you HONESTLY BELIEVE this is a widespread problem than you are out of your mind.

Let's face it, Republicans want FEWER people to vote because if people vote in large numbers, they LOSE.

The whole "voter fraud" issue is to scare legitimate voters away.

[InvestigatorDave]

@SpitfireOFatj So you saw one guy get 12 ballots in short order, and you don't think that could be replicated? You've declared him a "jackass", so it must not be difficult to do what he did. Right?

Since no one knows how widespread the problem is, saying it isn't widespread would be making a claim without supporting evidence, and therefore just an opinion.

Election integrity is not a party-based concern, or shouldn't be.

Explain how legit voters get scared away, please.
