The Battle For Georgia

Yes, we're all tired of elections - except for those who may be trying to steal one in Minnesota. But the next election is in Georgia and it isn't far off.

You can help by visiting here.

P.S. As I am writing this to you, liberal Senator Chuck Schumer has just sent out an email to Democratic activists alerting them that his committee is targeting Georgia in the run-off “to help Barack Obama make fundamental change in this country.” If you want to stop Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama, the place to do it is Georgia.

Interested in how you could think the election in Minnesota is being stolen.

It's not. It's called a recount. And it is required by state law.

And best yet Coleman is going down. Which couldn't make me happier.

Saxby will win in Georgia. Sorry Nancy and friends.
Coleman will win in Minnesoto.
Cheating will not stand !
Enough of that already.
Would be interesting to know how many votes across this country were illegal,
as I am sure there were many, but we will really never know that.
The only way democrats haves ever been able to accomplish anything is cheat, lie and steal.

Uh, jharp, apparently you aren't aware of the fact that the recount hasn't even started, yet votes for Franken are magically appearing from the back seat's of people's cars. Yeah, stealing is the right term. It was done in the Washington governor's race a few years ago, and it's about to be repeated. The ends justify the means, no doubt.

[Dan Riehl]

You guys need to cut Jharp some slack and stop trying to inform him of things. If he actually knew anything, he'd be a conservative. : )

Stealig is not the right term, read the reports TK in one case a recorder wrote down 24 instead of 124 hence Franken picked up 100 votes instantly. Coleman is trying to stop the recount, he doesn't want the citizens of Minnesota to have the vote.

[jharp]

templar,

I am aware the recount has not yet begun. I am following this closely as I can't stand Coleman.

And no votes are magically appearing. They are going to count all 3 million votes by hand as required by law. And the odds favor Franken, albeit only slightly. And the intrade numbers match almost exactly. Pretty interesting how smart those gamblers can be.

If you are interested check this.

I don't know, Spartan, doesn't it seem odd to you that all missed votes are ALL going to Franken? And out of three million votes, not one Coleman vote was missed. Seems more than coincidental to me.

[jharp]

"Just local election officials correcting claimed typos in how the numbers were reported."

ET, this is from your article. And this is why they are doing a hand recount as required by state law.

Pretty simple, eh?

[jharp]

templar,

"Spartan, doesn't it seem odd to you that all missed votes are ALL going to Franken? And out of three million votes, not one Coleman vote was missed."

This is not true. There were Coleman votes missed. Just not as many as there were Franken votes.

They are to begin a hand recount as required by state law on the 19th.

Officials with Hennepin County forwarded their tally Monday to the secretary of state's office, showing that, since initial results Wednesday, Franken's total had increased by 55 votes and Coleman's by 27 in the state's largest county.

Adjustments in the vote tallies because of misplaced figures and other errors have been limited to 22 of the state's 87 counties, according to an analysis of the fluctuations from Wednesday to Monday.

Since the preliminary Election Day numbers, Franken's biggest gains were in Lake County, where he added 246 votes, and in Pine and St. Louis counties, where he picked up 100 in each.

Coleman's biggest gain was in Ramsey County, 29 votes, but that was more than canceled out by an additional 41 votes there for Franken. Coleman's biggest drop was 124 votes in Anoka County, where Franken also lost 90 votes.

Sorry, jharp, gotta catch up on this one. You are obviously more up to date than I am. I'll get back to you, later. I'm off to the store.

[ET]

jharp, this is also from the article I posted. If this doesn't make you suspicious, you are not being intellectually honest, just partisan.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Virtually all of Franken’s new votes came from just three out of 4130 precincts, and almost half the gain (246 votes) occurred in one precinct -- Two Harbors, a small town north of Duluth along Lake Superior -- a heavily Democratic precinct where Obama received 64 percent of the vote. None of the other races had any changes in their vote totals in that precinct.

To put this change in perspective, that single precinct’s corrections accounted for a significantly larger net swing in votes between the parties than occurred for all the precincts in the entire state for the presidential, congressional, or state house races.

Indeed, the 504 total new votes for Franken from all the precincts is greater than adding together all the changes for all the precincts in the entire state for the presidential, congressional, and state house races combined (a sum of 482). It was also true that precincts that gave Obama a larger percentage of the vote were statistically more likely to make a correction that helped Franken.

ET,

All that is necessary is to have recount. Which is exactly what they are doing.

If you have some evidence of election fraud you should let it be known. As it is now there is no such evidence. Just innuendo from Fox News.

[Fred Beloit]

ET, listen carefully to Harpo, the voice of reason and objectivity to the world.

[jharp]

Thank you kindly, Fred.

I try to do my best.
