BREAKING: New Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Buying

Re: BREAKING: New Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Bu

McDaniel is now offering rewards to anybody who can come up with any evidence that voter fraud actually happened.

But, if McDaniel already has the evidence, as he claims, then why is he offering a reward for evidence? Good question, and the answer should be obvious. The wheels appear to be coming off the McDaniel clown car. LOL.

"The" evidence, as if he has it all? Have you ever heard of rewards being offered for evidence or proof that is useful in a case? I hate to break it to you, but prosecutors/lawyers do this, legally, all the time. You lefties have to look a bit more than what is presented in front of your faces.
 
Re: BREAKING: New Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Bu

:doh
The only thing to remember is what has been proven.
And so far in this case, it is that those who fraudulently voted were Dems.
Laughing... how CON of you! :doh

First vote buying is far more difficult (if not impossible) to prove by reviewing voter logs of the GOP.
WTF? Clearly you are confusing two separate issues.
No one said vote buying was proven by the logs.


Second this isn't a Dem scheme.
:lamo
How typically Prog of you.

You do not know that.
There are two separate issues here.

One is the actual dual voting by Dems that took place as reflected by the log books.
This voting was a result of Cochran's camp requesting Dems to vote for him. No where is there any evidence that he intended for those who had already voted to vote again. If you want to call that some sort of a scheme, go right on ahead. iLOL There is nothing illegal about it.

The only ones responsible for their double voting, are those Dems who did it.


The second issue are the claims of a scheme made by a known Dem fraudster. Of which none of the claims have yet to be supported with any evidence.
So like I said. You do not know if it is or isn't a Dem scheme.
It very well may be the scheme of this lone known Dem fraudster, or it may not.


Third I don't see the evidence so far supporting vote buying,
Now you are involved in this "Con" thinking you accused me of. As I have been pointing that out.


or Dems flocking to vote in the run-off.
:doh
No one claimed flocking, so that claim is irrelevant.

Cochran's camp asked for such voters.
An example of one of the log pages which indicated dual voting by 3 Dems was provided earlier.
Which was one of the first irregularities found. You do understand this right?

And the number of irregularities has continued to grow.

[...]

Campaign staffers and 150 volunteers have already combed through voting records in 51 counties and claim to have identified nearly 5,000 "irregularities," which are mostly tied to people who were ineligible to vote in the state's June 24 runoff election, McDaniel campaign spokesman Noel Fritsch said.

[...]

McDaniel camp preps for legal challenge to Cochran - CNN.com

Are all those irregularities Dems? I care not. And I highly doubt they are looking for irregular votes cast for McDaniel.
That is what matters.
It is more than likely that they will have enough evidence to get the results overturned.

So on one hand, you attack Cochran for not being a "real" Republican.
Come back to reality and stop running in circles.

I clearly stated he is a Republican, in name only. That is not an attack.


And it was even previously clarified to you that I did not say he wasn't a "real" as you term it, Republican.
Ah, he's not a "real" Republican.
Currently a RINO is still a Republican. So you have no point.

Tell me, what do you call a liberal who is really a conservative?

:naughty All you are doing is trying to start some idiotic partisan bs. :naughty Just stop.


on one hand, you attack Cochran for not being a "real" Republican. Then you say he isn't involved at all.
:doh
Oy Vey! Yes circles.
Neither of the things you mentioned here have anything to do with the other. Not only that, you made a false claim.
I never said he wasn't involved. I said there is no evidence of any involvement by him. Do you really not understand the difference?


Who's the one going in circles?
As shown, you are, especially with your false claims.

Like I said, just stop with your partisan bs.





McDaniel is now offering rewards to anybody who can come up with any evidence that voter fraud actually happened.

But, if McDaniel already has the evidence, as he claims, then why is he offering a reward for evidence? Good question, and the answer should be obvious. The wheels appear to be coming off the McDaniel clown car. LOL.
:lamo
Your comment of clown car is totally ridiculous. Especially given the information already given in this thread.


There are two separate issues here. Both relate to voting.
So why shouldn't he want all the he can obtain?

McDaniel alleges 8,300 questionable ballots

Daily Journal Jackson Bureau


JACKSON — State Sen. Chris McDaniel, still refusing to give up his challenge to incumbent U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran, said Friday via e-mail his campaign had found 8,300 questionable ballots across the state from the June 24 Republican primary runoff.

He said many of those “were unquestionably cast by voters ineligible to participate in the June 24th runoff election” that McDaniel lost to Cochran

McDaniel promised a Wednesday news conference “to discuss the evidence we have documented and our next steps.”
McDaniel has said before he intends to file a legal challenge to the June 24 election where Cochran defeated him by 194,932 votes to 187,265 votes.​

If the 8300 number reflects actual questionable ballots, then there should be no option but to overturn the primary. :shrug:
 
Re: BREAKING: New Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Bu

So once a winner is declared...that's it and people should accept it and just move on.

Waste all the money you want.

But it is over.

There are a lot of small minded bitter angry hate filled democrats still reliving the 2000 election that could benefit from such a message.

Still trying to justify the Bush-43 election and slinging around the "hate" card at Democrats.
Try to stay focused on the thread--Republicans in Mississippi hate each other's guts--DEMs are bystanders here .

Justify? Of course not. Bush won. Let it go.
If the allegations are correct, democrats were not 'bystanders'. That's not to say they were to blame. If it is true, then Cochran is to blame.

I commented earlier on this topic that if proven true, this ought to be something democrats and republicans alike should be upset with. Rigging elections becomes all too easy. One of our greatest strengths is the election process. We should not stand by and we certainly shouldn't applaud fraud.

As the one who brought up the 2000 election first--

Prove it or let it go--
btw, DEMs aren't ever gonna be done messin with your primaries--
I commented earlier on this topic that if proven true, this ought to be something democrats and republicans alike should be upset with.
DEMs and Repubs will never agree on anything significant again--your House of NO has seen to that--

So you are a cafeteria GOP when it comes to legal elections and the voting rights act .

The sentiment was offered...it sounds universal. Let it go. Remember that anytime the subject of Bush/Gore comes up. As to the 'prove it' part...that's what in estimations are for. There have been allegations made. If they are true there should be action. Why are liberals and democrats so anxious to have this swept away?

You are comical. Your pretense that it is the GOP and the house that have created this atmosphere is a joke. It has been going on for far longer than this administration. But what you and people like you really find objectionable is the GOP won't just rubber stamp everything the dems want. Perhaps dems should hearken to the days of Reagan and Clinton. Negotiation doesn't mean "give me what I want". And by all means...tell us how effective the dems and the senate are.

I object to all forms of voter fraud. I object to all forms of election fraud. If you can't see that...the fault is yours.

It depends on who you're dealing with. Liberals claim there is never voter fraud, there lies the problem.
 
Re: BREAKING: New Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Bu

It is over. And the guy who claimed the bought ballots? Big story out about him and how he is always wrong, always pulling this crap.

Charles Johnson And The Mississippi Senate Race - Business Insider
While the claims from a Liberal fraudster may be fraudulent and the reporter fell for it, your linked story is irrelevant as it has nothing to do with the 8,300 questionable ballots that McDaniel's supposedly found.

And as it has been reported that he is taking it to Court, any claim that it is over is ridiculous.

No. If it is true that he is bringing this to court, then it really depends on what the court decides.

What is it the GOP House has wanted since Feb. 2014 besidees a credit downgrade and a gov't shutdown?
GOPs accomplished their mission--complete gridlock--50 some votes against ACA--50 some whines after each of the last 50 some jobs reports .
Perhaps dems should hearken to the days of Reagan and Clinton.
The "Clinton" card--now that is comical.
Negotiation doesn't mean "give me what I want". And by all means...tell us how effective the dems and the senate are.

Please let me know when the GOP Senate led by McFilibuster stops delaying action with the "amendment" card .

how is the 'Clinton' card comical? (This should be fun)

So...you don't like Senate filibusters, huh? Any idea how Harry Reid felt about them when they were the minority party?

I'm assuming then that you'll be donating to Sen./SoS/Mrs. Clinton.

Every time Daschle or Reid filibustered, Bitch McFilibuster would whine to have a "straight-up-and-down vote"--I **** you not. :lamo
How do you feel about McTurtle slam-dunking the all-time records for filibusters while the House was doing NO .

MRS Clinton? No. But I have said numerous times here that while Bill Clinton is a pig and has the morals of a rat he was also a very intelligent and good president and I would have him replace the clown in office today in a heartbeat.

Now...about Reid and filibusters...
 
Re: BREAKING: New Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Bu

There are still Democrats who are saying that Al Gore won the Presidential race back in 2000 after Gore had already conceded.

The Democrats went as far as demanding that the military absentee ballots be thrown out.

The even wanted the ballots of convicted felons who illegally voted counted.

They even wanted a recount of the recount.

The filibuster lie is something only the most sycophantic argue anymore.

The only thing that happened when Reid took over the senate was that he went cloture crazy. So while you can say there were more filibusters there was an equal increase in successful cloture votes.

Reid loves trying to kill debate.
