You don’t say.

In 13 Philadelphia wards, Obama received 99 percent of the vote or more.

The “or more,” is a nice touch. Fortunately, the Philadelphia Inquirer assures us that there is absolutely no – and I mean no, n.o. – reason to worry about voter fraud. I know I feel relieved.

If I read this right some of those wards got 130% turnout of registered voters.

Well, if it's in the right wing 'pundit press' then it must be true. No doubt we'll soon see defeated Republican candidates in Pennsylvania going to court to contest these elections.

You know - Court. The place where you actually have to produce evidence.

If this is true, it needs to be pursued. I cannot stand the thinking behind ANY manipulation of voting: Gerrymandering, Suppression, or outright Cheating.

there's plenty of work to be done then, we should probably start by arresting most of the upper echelons of federal and state government nation-wide, since gerrymandering, voter suppression laws, etc are prevalent.

Wow- that's even more impressive than John Wiley Price's run in Dallas. He's been frequently in the news and investigated for fraudulent activity over a good portion of his career, and he managed to garner over 70% of the vote Tuesday. It just tells me that much of the voting public is willing to look the other way as long as their guy gets in. It frankly disgusts me that so many people are so corrupt in our society.

Gee wonder if 30% of the registered voters would have had fake ID's too.
 
I find it funny how so many conservatives have immediately turned to blame others for Romney's loss. This is why I laugh when the right mentions "personal responsibility."

Exactly, see what I mean?
 
I question the source....HOWEVER, because the notion of the Republican observers being removed was I believe actually legitimate, I would think an accusation like this at least bares looking into. Not because i believe it's going to have a significant impact on the election....it absolutely, without a doubt, won't...but because we should care about our electoral process. Had this been....New York, or San Francisco, or Detroit...where we didn't have reports initially of Republican viewers being escorted out or electioneering occuring, then I'd probably say "unless there's some sterner evidence, it's not worth bothering to check in on." However, I think the initial actions in philadelphia remove the benefit of the doubt and at the very least, regardless of the source, this deserves at least a look in by election officials.

It may very well turn out to be nothing, and it won't change the election what so ever, but it can't hurt to investigate.

Something seems entirely fishy about the whole election... Voter fraud, oversized turnout in places where there didn't appear to be waiting lines, people whose votes were being switched by voting machines, military absentee ballots missing or being delivered late, the Black Panther standing outside the polling location, the Republican poll workers being kicked out of polling location...

I also have an issue with same day voting, provisional ballots, etc.

Every election ought to automatically be recount to identify potential fraud wherever it could come from...

No... there were actually 3 recounts done, and in each of them Bush actually gained votes...

Let's also not forget the glaring issue with FL being anounced by the media networks as won by Gore, while polls were still open in the panhandle, the heavy Republican stronghold... So how many people were disuaded from voting since the result had been anounced as going to Gore?

very strange that the supreme court would voted 5-4 on strictly party lines to stop a manual recount. what were they trying to hide? i'm glad obama didnt have to go through the same thing, no doubt it would have been another 5-4 party line vote to appoint romney.

So potential voter fraud means nothing to you? This is what concerns me about many in the electorate; they don't care about voter fraud if it benefits their guy. I find that terrifying. The key to our democracy is the ability to believe that the votes are being counted correctly and every legal voter only gets one vote.

Are you really this immature?

As I said last time, there were 3 actual full recounts which showed Bush gaining votes...

no, there were 3 selective recounts, what the republican controlled supreme court halted was a full recount, just as the recount was entering areas heavily populated by democrats it was halted. 5-4 party line vote says it all. but please, if these 3 'full' recounts happened, feel free to provide a source.
 
This is a repeat of many threads that deserves this response:

Again... there were 3 independent recounts (not done by the government), in which the recounts showed the lead extended for Bush...
