North Carolina Voting - and Consistency

[Sparko]

I will just repeat my first post in this thread:

whether done by democrats or republicans, voter fraud should be investigated and anyone responsible should be arrested.

This is just further evidence that voter fraud does occur, despite democrats routinely pooh-poohing the claim. Another reason why we need tighter controls on our votes. And IDs.

Whether done on the front end at the voting booth, or the back end with the ballots, voting fraud happens and needs to be stopped.

I am glad to see it was rooted out and there will be another election. The campaign manager needs to be tossed in jail.

That's refreshing, but I cannot help but note the vast difference between the response/discussion to this incidence of voter fraud and the accusations of voter fraud in Florida. In Florida, there was much speculation and accusation, but little evidence of actual voter fraud was found. Two volunteer women, as far as I can tell, were arrested. One for filling in the mayor slot on two ballots that had left it blank, and one woman filled in five voter registration forms in support of a ballot initiative (marijuana, I think). But that discussion went on and on about how evil the Democrats were. This one, where voter fraud has actually been shown and a new election called, has almost silence. I have to wonder why this is the case.

Well this thread is up to 26 pages. That's a pretty good run. And we haven't had any news until today about what the investigation found. But it has not hardly been hidden, on tweb or the news.

I'm not talking about the news. BOTH incidents were all over the news.

I'm talking about this forum.

Have you reviewed the contents of those 26 pages? Not a lot of it was actually about North Carolina. The thread did what threads here generally do - meandered all over the place. The actual amount of conversation about the situation in North Carolina is fairly light.

Because everyone agreed that such fraud was wrong and if true should be punished. And today it looks like it is indeed true and will be punished.




It's like you are trying to pick a fight and everyone is saying "woah buddy, we agree with you" and you are upset about that.

No - not "upset." Just noting the distinction in outrage and energy.

And there's this regarding Ballot Harvesting...

That's because the discussion morphed into one about voter fraud in general rather than just one specific case especially after there was general agreement it ought to be investigated.

Your thread in which no one seems interested might be apropos here, given carpe's question.
