  • Funny how so many people are worried about aking if he got permission from this women, instead of on the content of the ABUSE/FRAUD/DISEPTION.....you liberals are always moving the conversation away from the topic. STOP IT!

  • You know that it is illegal to post videos of people without their consent right? I hope you asked permission to the lady before posting her info here.

  • Ya, ask Sasha Cohan about that "law" ... as I recall he filmed many folks in his Borat movie who in turn tried to sue him ... they all failed.

  • Yeah, the bottom half of her face said it was OK.

  • @comments247 Wrong!

    If they state specifically they do not want to be filmed then the law applies.

  • I was driving to Las Vegas with my ex and gave him road head, so much fun!

  • this is sad. and no i'm not talking about voter fraud, as this case has been investigated and there was no evidence of voter fraud. do a search of isabel melendez and you'll find a news story in the eagle tribune explaining exactly what is happening here. this is just pathetic. to whomever posted this video, as "proof" of fraud, i say this, your guy won. be happy. there's no sense in resorting to crap like this.

  • Who cares?

  • That figures, bush did it and you fucks re-elected him.

  • mistake....

    hey,watch 'adly speak malay' on my channel..thanks

  • lol commando your crazy, but probably right? personally i have no desire to get into politics any more than is absolutely necessary, mainly because people are innately going to fuck each other over some way or another. Anyway I digress, my point was going to be to let you know you need to calm down because you actually CANT change anything, but you can focus on typing and spelling.

  • haha i love your name..

  • people please comment on me singing carrie underwood inside your heaven

  • calm down girl....I say what I mean. Obama and dems are raping this nation behind closed doors.

  • the fuck is up with her nail?

  • Even acorn couldn't pull off this scam.

    Too little too late. We sent a message loud and clear to Washington but they are "ears wide shut"... Buh-Bye Dems!

  • YES BECAUSE OF THAT - IT IS PROOF POSITIVE THAT ALL ELECTIONS ARE RIGGED:

    Case in point: GW - RIGGED! Obama -oh nonononono FAIR AND SQUARE! WHEN OUR GUY WINS - FAIR AND SWAURE

    WHEN WE LOSe- IT IS RIGGED! Bitches- BOTH PARTIES ARE FUCKING RIGGING ELECTIONS- you stupid mother fuckers - fucking idiots.

  • haha! its so true

  • @dewittra2 Sadly true. So many want to tell us, who oppose this president, that we are racist because we oppose him. I appose the President, not the color. Well anyway, we live and learn, and hopefully aren't destroyed in the process.

  • @dewittra2 Wow...too much Glenn Beck for you buddy.

  • isdd thedm asks rrjs wmsd wamms rfhdd dsjd ekdkdj 4ffjf sjjdk rmfkd edkd

    what's your name?

    Elizavel

  • I cant understand a word this woman said

  • @dewittra2 I didn't vote for Obama, but I had hopes that he'd try his best to be a President of the People and not of the special interests. I hoped that being the first Black President, he'd set an example for all Presidents of color that would follow. Well there's a dream dashed. He may have set back the chances of another Man or Woman of Color ever getting into office again, as President. At least for as long as I have time left.. Very sad. Sad for America. Sad sad sad.

  • that fun

  • I lovw being a 100% pure Irish female.

  • Nice. More leftist immigrants trying to turn America into a failed state like cuba so they feel more at home.

  • obama won by cheap tricks and lies, pulling troops out first day in office? not as simple as he thought

  • whats an absentee ballot

  • when you cannot be present to vote you request an absentee ballot, ususally months before the election

  • Shut up stavross, religion is just an excuse  For arguing and being prejudiced.

  • Acorn must been there.

  • Now I see how Obama won.

  • Time to put politicians on trial for subversion.

  • Now that this video is up, it wont be long before it will be seen by election officials in Mass. They'll find the woman in the video and question her and no doubt they be questioning the poster as well. If it's fake he'll be in mucho trouble. If it's real she'll be in trouble either way I'm good !

  • They investigate this yesterday after two Republican poll watchers called the City Clerk about the video. No one, not even the person who shot this has come forth to say it was on election day.

  • She will probably be deemed as a hero and become a Senator herself. lol j/k

  • should of asked her for her green card

  • Ballots for illegals?

  • At least the prostitute handing out the absentee ballots was of legal age.

  • Scott Brown wins! Scott Brown wins! Free atlast, Free Atlast! Thank God this country is free from Liberalism atlast!

  • This is unions in action.

  • Okay, so I watched the video at least four or five times. I can only see one ballot. I don't know for sure what this is, however she did say her candidate is martha, and this is how you fill out the form. I don't see how this is a smoking gun for anything. I guess if you tell enough people this is voter fraud, enough mindless people will believe. What a sad day it is in America when people can't even believe their own lying eyes!

  • Stop slapping the paper. Geez.

  • Did anyone else vote in MA today? When I went to vote, they didn't ask me for ID or anything, just asked for my name and street address... I could have come back later and pretended to be my neighbor or something...

    Also when I put the ballot into the machine, they said it didn't matter which way we put it in, face-up or face-down... Is it true that the machines can read votes regardless of how they are entered into the machines?

    The system seems kinda easy to exploit... I'm not very confident

  • Comment removed

  • You seen surprised. Don't you vote regularly?

  • Ask your local ACORN representative, they'll fill you in on all the details, ROFL!!! ;-D

  • For years, voting in Mass I've put my ballot in up and down. Doesn't make a difference. I'm not sure why you are now questioning it. It's the same thing with IDs.

  • Nope this is my second time voting... it was the same during the obama/mccain election (my first time voting) just there was nowhere for me to complain... it just doesn't seem like this is a very secure system.

    Anyway Brown won!!!

  • Taurus, if this is true you should have reported it to authorities. Why didn't you? Oh, I would guess you're full of shit.

  • who am i supposed to report it to? what authorities? there was a cop standing right by the machine who said it didn't matter which way you put the ballot in. is there an agency that deals with this stuff?

  • nice nails.

  • The democratic (communist) party is the party of malevolent envy. An amalgam of nation wrecking misfits (jews, blacks, homos, baby killers, transgenders). Low lives with no respect for property or natural law.

    Prepare you and your family for a righteous Civil War 2.

    It's coming.

  • get into asylum

  • She explains how shes telling people to mark Martha Coakleys name. The woman handing out the ballots identifies herself as Isabel Melendez and says she has a talk show in which she promoted Coakleys candidacy.

    Today, she takes her community work onto the airwaves on her show, "La Voz del Pueblo" -Spanish for "The voice of the people"- on WHAV-AM from 10 a.m. to noon, Monday through Friday.

  • So was she really handing these out? And what is this "little copies" thing that she says? Very odd.....

  • I think she was giving them out to people who were voting for Coakly.

  • Just like a filthy sleezer greazer. Ought to shoot that pig in the head. Hope someone gets her nasty spic ass arrested.

  • Bitch is busted.

  • Sample ballots 9just like the one shown here) are distributed at every polling place so people can look at it before they go in. The "absentee ballots" come after request via US post & are closed days ago.

    This is not "evidence" of fraud or anything else. Snap out of it!

  • Sample ballots have a big gray "SAMPLE BALLOT" printed across the whole face of the ballot. These are not sample ballots, but appear to be copies of real ballots.

  • I don't know if anyone listened to Rush Limbaugh today, but there was a story in The Boston Globe about the breakdown of each areas voting so far.

    It was stated by TBG that Coakley was leading in the polls and she was the winner. Now, since Rush spoke about this, this morning TBG took the map breakdown off their site.

    Corruption is going to be the only way they cheat here, if Brown loses. Progressive way of doing things, lie, steal and cheat seems to be fine with these practices.

  • Now I know if the Dems win it will be a fraud just like the Obama win. Time for working Americans to stop carrying the lazy fucks water and fight back.

  • Unreal, They don't even try to hide it anymore. Since they let the black panthers go they fear nothing. Maybe they will change tune when the guns come out?

  • I heard her say, after she said she had a talk show, "I dedicated the program yesterday.....on the election tomorrow." That would imply this was filmed Yesterday, on MLK day.

    There is no reason she should be giving out, or copying ballots on any day though.  WHat you expect from this state though.

  • regardless of what is going on here, surely the authorities won't accept these ballots...

  • Could someone link me to the video of her handing out the ballots please?

  • It doesn't exist.

  • " If I lived in Massachusetts, I'd try to vote 10 times. I don't know if they'd let me or not, but I'd try to. Yeah, that's right, I'D CHEAT TO KEEP THESE BASTARDS OUT ! I WOULD! " 

    ( and so would your Dem buddies, that much is clear )

  • Comment removed

  • When did this happen? Today?

  • Democrats are disgusting....no shame.

  • Democrats have to lie and cheat to win. It's what they've done even going back to the 1870s under Reconstruction. Democrats are the party of intimidation, vote fraud, and hypocrisy. In a real world, there would be two parties in America: The Conservative Party and the Libertarian one.

  • In the real world, we call people like you morons who live in a delusional world created by someone else.

  • Can someone explain what she said, My audio is bad.

  • This is what I heard.........

    Something the ballot. My candidate is Marta (Martha). So you know I didn't mark it I leave it to them but I explain she is number 2 on the ballot. OK? Then something about making a little copies. I also have a brand new talk show and I dedicated the program just to cover the election tomorrow.

    He says: Oh you do?

    The rest is pretty clear

  • that Isabel melendez i know her personal... that her ill bet my salary on it

  • Democrats - when you absolutely can't win without fraud...

  • Where's the clip of her handing it out? I'm dying to see it.

    Is there another link?

  • Black Panthers at voting stations. Dead people voting.,ACORN voter fraud....Democrats.

    Typical.

  • 1. Regardless of whether it is a copy of an absentee ballot or an original, no one should be running around with multiple copies of either - before, during or after the election.

    2. She seems to be explaining that she is using the ballot for voter education. You don't use a copy of a real ballot for voter education. You use ballots with the imprint "SAMPLE BALLOT" for voter education. This is not a sample ballot.

    This video does raise questions and concerns.

  • Where does it show her handing them out as is being claimed? She talks about the ballot, talks a bit more and the video cuts out.

  • Thank you for pointing this out.

    Either the "reporter" is doing a piss-poor job or it never happened.

    Now, let me tell you what I would do if I was handling this as reported.

    I would swing back with a wide angle showing her in front of a polling place with no break in the footage.

    Please note that today it has been snowing all day in Lawrence, yet the video shows no snow falling at all.

    People here are claiming this is today, the posters of the video haven't. If they did, Melendez can sue.

  • According to the dubious photographer, this woman photocopied the absentee ballot on perforated copy paper... Yeah, right. I know fraud when I see it.

  • That is not perforated paper. The marks along the side are timing marks, necessary on ballots scanned by the Diebold/Premier optical scan machines used in Lawrence.

  • I never said she copied it on perforated paper. Please don't put words in my mouth. That is not honest.

  • $100 says this nasty hispanic woman is a liberal SEIU member

  • The MASS VOTER FRAUD HOTLINE people said they took care of this. I don't believe them.

    MASS VOTER FRAUD HOTLINE:

    1-800-462-8683.

  • Also, if you pause the video, you can read this is an absentee ballot. You can also read the Jan 19th date on it, which is today, the day of the election.

  • This need better tags so people can find it.

  • To the photographer who says this is a photocopy? Photocopies don't have holes along both sides of the paper, as form paper does?

    I rest my case.

  • Those aren't holes, they are timing marks. They line up with the vote marks.

    The date on the ballot doesn't show that this video was taken today, it refers to the day of the election. Absentee ballots had to be cast by last Friday. It is irrelevant whether she has a copy or an original, no one should be running around with multiple copies of either.

  • Its a scanned copy printed on a dot matrix printer, look how old she is, you think she has a core i7?

  • I see no evidence that it is printed on a dot matrix printer. If it is a scanned copy, it would have dots along the side, because all Diebold ballots have those. The scanner cannot read the ballot without the dots along the side.

  • I was being funny, but either way, all we know is that she may or may not be holding an authentic absentee ballot. If she is holding a ballot for the purpose of explaining the voting process, she should of got a ballot that is for that purpose. But does it really matter? If its a copy, only official copies will be admissible since the automated scanners can check the number bar for duplicates. If its official, the video only shows her with 1 ballot, and she never handed it out in the video.

  • What number bar do they "check for duplicates"? These are old Diebold Accuvote and antiquated ES&S Optechs. The ballots she is holding are for the Diebold machines. There is not a number bar checked for duplicates with these machines. The video shows her with at least two ballots, by the way.

  • send it to the FBI

  • I hope someone does do that. It will just show the stupidity of what people purport it to say. Maybe PjPoney123 should have the honor of doing it.

  • MAKE THIS VIDEO GO VIRAL. THIS IS AGAINST THE LAW. Even if these are photo copies this is really bad.

  • I agree. Let's make this go viral. I will call as many of my friends to help with this as possible. I hope you and everyone else does the same thing.

    The end result will be that people will realize this video is just part of a dirty tricks campaign and the makers will be totally discredited.

  • "Useful Idiot"

  • so what if she was a former candidate...is she outside a polling place telling her people how to vote????? Give me a break, that is what is wrong with this damn country...if they can't read...but can point...then why the hell are they allowed to vote..Unbelieveable!

  • Of course she can be outside a polling place telling people how to vote. It's called campaigning.

    I swear, if you folks don't know this you must not vote.

    People stand outside polls telling other people how they think they should vote.

  • Obviously you missed her saying, "I want to make copies" didn't you?

    I swear, you liberal nutjobs only hear what you want to hear, and ignore all the rest!

  • She has to be 150 feet away and NOT be handing out absentee ballots and telling everyone how to mark them. You can't even wear a campaign button or hold a campaign sign closer than 150 ft from the polling place.

  • This is funny. She was about half a mile away from the nearest polling station and one whole day before Election Day.

    Please, if you truly believe this challenge the makers of the video to give testimony that it was on Election Day and/or within less than 150 feet from a polling place. That would be the best proof possible.

    Of course, if they are scared of perjurty.....

  • You can't spell. You shouldn't be allowed to vote either.

  • ELECTIONJOURNAL: Nice work. Will you be showing your video to the local TV stations? How are you handling this blatant CHEATING? I'm so sick of this crap. Was a victim of ACORN-SEIU thuggery and CHEATING at my Dem caucus in NV in 2008. Dem no more--EVER! Indy now.

  • Isabelle Melendez should be JAILED IMMEDIATELY and then DEPORTED! She's obstructing the fair and free election process.

    Why the eff are there absentee ballots being handed out at the polls? If you live in MASS, call the g-d cops and the nearest election office. E-mail this vid to your local news stations.

    OUT FRIGGINGRAGEOUS! Hope Brown kicks Coakley's cheating butt to kingdom come by 20 points! ACORN-SEIU-ILLEGALS: DROP DEAD!

  • She will NOT be arrested sorry to say. Lantigua wouldn't allow that, seeing they are related and is his campaign something or other.

  • Maybe. Maybe not. I and about 100 other people have been busy writing various national media outlets, our state senators, blog sites, etc.

    If she's done something illegal, which it sure looks like here, with all the bad press she's getting, nothing and no one will save her from her rightful fate as an electioneer who is tampering with the fair and free election process.

  • The above response was to the poster who said this woman works for a politician, and so she won't be arrested.

  • Another lemming.

  • ROFL!!!

  • Comment removed

  • She needs to be in jail and then deported.

  • How are you going to get an envelope?-They are specialized and can only come from Town/City hall- There has to be a record of that voter requesting an absentee ballot and then it shipping out-what you don't think we keep track of this stuff? Jeese!

    I said she could be prosecuted if they could proove something. No one even knows where this woman lives-she might even be an illegal.

  • The reason she was so open about showing them to a "reporter" and being recorded is because there was nothing illegal here.

    The real fraud is that this is being presented as "absentee ballots" when they are photocopies. It is dirty campaigning. Either that, or the so-called "reporter" is too stupid to know the difference.

    Lastly, she was a mayoral candidate years ago. You have to be a citizen to run and her address is a matter of public record.

  • No, you only have to be a legal resident to run for mayor.

  • WHAT!? Where do you live? Please quote the law for there.

  • You have to understand Lawrence. Filled to the brim with some of the most despicable liars and cheats to enter this state and country. I live "next door" to this town..Have since 1975..nothing good ever comes out of Lawrence. The town should be razed and used as a parking lot for all the WORKING MA residents that are now coming north to shop in Salem, NH (just over the border).

  • go to sec of state website & search for faq's electionday

  • I cannot wait for the next election. I want every national conservative pundit to call for multiple voting by conservatives in every state, all day. And the first reporter that questions how they could say that gets punched in the face by a lynch mob. And then perhaps strung up by a flagpole.

  • Me too! No one in my field of work wants to be on TV tomorrow-trust me on that one, lol!

    We would stop fraud at all costs-no one wants a replay of Florida!

  • So would you say there will be charges filed against this woman?

  • It's possible that she could be arrested-but her English is not the greatest-and I don't mean to be offensive to anyone but she could claim language barrier issues-and perhaps also claim that she was just campaigning for Martha and meant no harm. Wouldn't hurt to bring this to Mr. Brown's attention though-there is no mention of what burb this was in was there?

  • Thanks for the info! I hope this is a clean election for both parties sake.

  • You can't bring a ballot from outside the polling place-even if you are turning in an absentee ballot-it must go to election headquarters first to be checked before it can go to the polling place-2nd point-all absentee ballots must be sealed in a special envelope that is signed by the voter-it would NOT be accepted without one-even if were turned in properly at election headquarters. Calm down

  • @2qk4u2c The thing you are missing is that they can be mailed out, and then turned into a town hall by hand. The sealed envelopes with signatures are easy to fake because they don't verify all the signatures.

  • Actually, the problem would be that voted absentee ballots would be (wink) accepted by an insider.

  • @BlackBoxVoting

    "It's not the people who vote that count. It's the people who count the votes." (Josef Stalin)

    :^)

  • BUSTED! I'm sure this will be all (cough) over the media tonight.

  • I'm an election official-this was brought to my attention

  • 2qk4u2c What is the law on doing this? Could she be arrested?

  • People-The Massachusetts Absentee Ballot is bright yellow at the top-no Precinct will take this-it is clearly a photo copy. She thinks she is being slick-but the voting process doesn't happen that way-no one can bring a ballot into a polling place like that-it will NOT be accepted!

  • You sure about that?

  • Photocopies ballots are often used when the location says they ran out of originals. It's a poor procedure but I've seen it done in several elections and in several states. Absentee fraud is typically done with an insider facilitating it.

  • Ed Schultz..you paying these people to stuff the ballot box or is it you...Chris Matthews? MSNBC and Dems really knows how to pick 'um.  There should be a through investigation of Franken election, not to mention Obamas.

  • so seriously ppl, know the LAW

  • unless it's within 150ft of polling place ON election day, it's not fraud. if it's within that parameter but on private property, it's still not illegal.

  • Even then, it's not fraud. It's illegal campaigning.

    What happens then is that someone complains (usually the opponents campaign) and they get moved. Many times all the campaigns have people too close and no one says anything.

    I remember covering a campaign in NJ years ago. Dems and GOPs were holding signs and giving out materials when a 3rd party person shows up and starts doing the same.

    The Dems complained and the cops moved everyone farther away, including the Dems and GOPs.

  • Actually, running around with copies of blank absentee ballots is probably illegal.

  • It shows at the top left if you freeze the frame that this IS an absentee ballot.

  • Want real voting reform?

    • Valid picture ID, confirming citizenship and eligibility to vote at that location.

    • Dip your finger in ink before voting.

    • Long prison term for individual voter fraud.

    • Death penalty for systemic fraud.

  • @jpeditor I would totally support that system

  • Marxist college students are allowed to vote if they reside in another state at that time. They vote illegally in both their home state and states they are attending school... Ever wonder how these commies got in office in big cities. Keep paying taxes your funding your own death republicans and democrats are traitors and all should get guillotined..

  • And a birth certificate!!!!!!! Original, with a raised seal.

  • Cabo53,

    1. How do you know it's a photocopy?

    2. Those ballots absolutely could be put in the mail today "even though the video is from yesterday". Do you not understand the progression of time?

    3. Don't tell me that a fake ballot won't be counted. Al Franken received votes from ballots where someone wrote in "LIZARD PEOPLE" as the candidate. Dems always cheat: Washington Governor, Minnesota Senate, NY-23rd, Montana Senate... close election=automatic dem win

  • First, I know it was a photocopy because I was there. I'm a documentary photographer and was there to cover the event.

    Even if these were "real absentee ballots" there would have to be two conditions for them to be counted. 1- You would've had to make application before by last Friday 5pm, and (2) they would have to come in the special absentee ballot envelope before the polls end.

  • She says her name is Isabelle Menendez. Rememer that name. I called the Brown headquarters 877-505-2010 and reported it and they also have been alerted by other voters.

  • If this was real fraud I would expect the Brown people would make sure it was punished. I predict nothing will happen, but everyone will remember the "fraud" without even asking if the Brown campaign did anything (No, why waste your time on BS?) or if she was even charged.

    BTW, there were city police and state troopers inside where she had these copies. No one did anything because there was no illegality.

  • FRAUD! FRAUD! SOMEONE CALL THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFI-----

    Oh.... wait....

    The attorney general is Coakley herself...

    But... that would mean.... this will go unpunished.....

  • Standard communist liberal fair.

  • she ran for office recently.

    welcome to the America Democrats and their supporters approve of .....

    something antithetical to what it is supposed to be.

    HOPE and CHANGE, huh?

  • The pathetic thing is that since Ma is a 2 party consent state with respect to recording, people who try to capture voter fraud will probably end up arrested and persec...i mean prosecuted by the office of the District Attorney...Martha Coakley...SO YAY! What a great system! I sure that this poor woman was just confused and didn't know how to vote properly..we need to get her some govt. assistance....It's probably somehow my fault..I'm sorry.

  • Why am I not surprised?

  • People who commit voter fraud are stupid. Sooner or later they're going to get caught,and that means jail time.

  • Good Grief!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
