The mainstream media tried to downplay the massive amount of voting machines problems, but there were reported problems from coast to coast.
As reported in the Wikileaks Stratfor email dump earlier this year, the Obama campaign was engaged in massive ballot stuffing in Philadelphia and Ohio, more than likely by sabotaging voting machines and then having “emergency” ballots ready to switch with backup paper ballots.
Did Obama do the same thing but on a much wider scale? Obama in 2008 got a remarkable 85% of the vote in Philadelphia, but in this election received 99%! Is that possible? With Philadelphia’s record unemployment, record homicide rate, and an Obama-induced economy that has literally bankrupted the city, could Obama have won 99% of the vote?
Show us the ballots, Mr. President!

Not a Doubt in my mind…………………
Absolutely! Never before 2008 did I hear about so much ‘trouble’ with voting machines! I’ve been voting since 1964! With today’s technology. something as basic as voting machines should NOT be messing up the way they have been. What of all those people in Ohio who went to vote and were told they had already voted and of course they had not and they had to get a provisional ballot? When will those be counted? Sho voted for them and why do I get the distinct feeling they were all DEM votes? That is just part of the fraud. What of buses of seniors who went to vote and were intimidated by thugs NOT to get of the bus? Etc.
I believe the machines were rigged to Obamas favor and we the people deserve a recount or another vote. This is a slap in the face to our system and the paper said there were polls in Georgia that ran out of ballots, people were told they were not registered in their district so hundereds could not vote, in other places paper ballots were wrong so they went to reprint them and people left. This is sad that things like this take place in the greatest country in the world and that people are so stupid as to vote for someone who did not keep promises from his first term and has put every mistake on Bush. I can say IMO he is just like Bush because Bush stole the election on his last term and Obama did it this time and most likely last time.
Anyone who voted for this gay illegal Muslim American hateing communist can take blame as much as he is the fault this country is going to hell real fast. Our forfathers must be rolling over in their graves as are our ancestros who worked hard to make this into the greatest country in the world, suffering diseases, hard work, losing everything, having to travel over the long hard country to settle someplace and turn it into a town or making it into states. God Bless America and God save America because that gay illegal American hateing Muslim is slowely destroying it
In Columbus, Ohio they were shipping in Somalians by carloads and helping them vote. People were not evenallowed to showe an ID even after several attempts. Why was that?
I put the blame on the ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICAN PARTY MARIONETTES, they are to blame by been complicit in theVOTING FRAUD, this republican establishment are PUPPET of the COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS. Von Goethe said…None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free…After the end of WWII, globalist conspirators at the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London and the COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS in New York, devoted all their creative energy to divise a plan for the implementation of a new totalitarian communo-fascist society under their control—what they call the NEW WORLD ORDER, they have infiltrated al brand of government and control all the key departments(CIA, STATE DEPARTMENT, JUDICIARY, JOING SHIEFT OF STAFF, SECURITY COUNCIL AND BOTH PARIES ESTABLISHMENT ELITE) and along came the TRAITORS of the DEMOCRAT PARTY AND REPUBLICAN PARTY which have been infiltrated and are PUPPETS OF THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS, I was a democrat, but change my affiliation, now I am an INDEPENDENT.
Well……aren’t YOU just stupid? How is it the Republicans fault when the DEMOCRATS GOT THE FAKE VOTES! You think the Republicans rigged the machines so that they would put Obama’s name up regardless of how you voted? I think you must be a GENIUS!!!
The puppet masters are barely in sight…can you say Rothschild.
Another example is 2 counties in Colorado that voted 104% of their registerees and another county had 140%. That’s a real trick. What happened in North Carolina went on literally all day long all over the state.
This is the corruptness of the whole libber party and they continue that the latino want obama to pay them as they say he owes them for the deaths of their people and also for transporting them to the voting polls that they weren’t even support to be voting. How much more is the DC politicans expect the American conservatives and those voting for some one else other than the less than two years junior senator that never even went to work and most certainly didnt go to work when he was a president and then to not want to count our millitary peoples votes and then kill them by paying the muslim terrorists of Egypt and after it was over yesterday wanting the senate and house to send money to them again and why is that…Is there no way that we can open his hidden pubic records that they paid so much money to hide? He is an evil dyfuctional man that is here to destroy our country and the liberals wont even suggest that he is this killer of our people. There are tons of Mormans serving in our country and in the house and senate and while I don’t believe in what they believe in you are a total loser to not know they have morals and don’t promote violence and hope that you don’t but only believe what this con artist anti Colonization hoping to destroy our country,
Of course he did. He has the morals of an alley Cat.
THERE WERE MORE BALLOTS IN FLORIDA THEN THERE WERE VOTERS.
Why can’t the people of Philly who voted for Romney stand up and be counted? The home of Liberty where freedom should ring. If there was voter fraud (and I have no doubt there was) we would then know. Are the people of Philly such cowards they cannot stand up and really be counted. Have a rally for truth and honesty in elections!!! My state of Ohio and cuyahoga county could do the same as well as St Lucie, Fla. Lets get real people, we know it happened and we know why. Come on fellow Ohioans , are we that shallow and stupid? I think not.
Sign recount petition. http://www.petition2congress.com/8222/petition-recount-on-2012-presidential-election/
The machines were rigged, too many people voted in who knows how many districts, illegals and dead people voted probably more than once and Republicans can’t fight any of this because of a legal agreement they made with Dems in 1982 when Repubs got caught cheating!!! Huh, what? Why can’t the agreement be challenged or nullified? I feel like I’m living in the twilight zone or some alternate universe!
FBI MIGHT INVESTAGATE THE MACHINES, WHY DON’T THEY JUST STAND UP ON A STAGE AND TELL THE WORLD…..TIME THEY DO IT COULD BE A FIRE WHERE THEY PUT THE MACHINES???AND THAT WOULD BE A SHAME????????
MY GUESS THERE WILL BE A FIRE WHERE THEY KEEP THE MACHINES, JUST SAYING…
We must unite and insist on a nation wide audit and recount, when Counties like the one in Colorado has 50% more voters then the population, it does not take e rocket scientist to evaluate this problem!
You are so right..to many machienes were rigged…Fraud and getting away with it..
To many people agree with this to…I know many people that voted for Romeny..
All People’s Across the Board should Bann together, for the Good of the Country…And, CALL FOR A RE- COUNT ! ! !.
Of Course, the Obama’s Team, and the Dem’s are going to Claim, all Republican Voters are sore losers! And, more than Likely, Mr. Obama, will call for a Veto, on that ever happening!
But, how I look at it is…. If the Dems don’t, FEAR a Re-Count. And, the Re Count, coming back with Obama being the TRUE WINNER. Then, what do they have to lose!
At least, all the talk about Obama rigging the Machines, will be put to rest. And, if the Republicans come out the True Winners.Then everyone will know, Obama’s a Fake ,Lier and a Cheat….like most feel he is anyway !
But, then it will give the Dems, the chance to Prove their Candidate was beyond Reprouch and that their Candidate Won” Fair and Square”. And, if that happens. I personally, will apologize to Mr. President Obama, straight – a- way and Publicly! …But, I don’t think that will be the case !
Your not going to get a audit or a recount. They have all been deleted. Suckers for allowing eletronic voting machines to be used at all. The only true ballot is a signed paper with a hole punched in it an dhand counted. I said 6 months ago he knew he coundn`t lose and that the only way to get him out of the White house would be feet first.
Viking, yours is the best comment yet. The US must return to paper ballots, as did Germany. cCnada uses paper ballots. The US machines, owned by Scytl, Soros, were rigged to favour Obama. We knew this BEFORE the election.
The link referring to the 99% voting for Obama in some precincts also says that in some wards there was a 90% turnout.
Hitler would be proud.
In st. Lucie County in Florida (where Allen West is asking for a recount) 141% of the registered voters voted so Phillie has a way to go to catch up.
Voters should receive a printout/receipt showing who they voted for. And every voter should be required to show ID. I also believe there should not be early voting, because you never know what could happen right before the election that could sway votes. This whole system is a travesty. Brightwinger is right, Hitler WOULD be proud. I am truly disgusted and scared to death about where this nation is going.
I agree with this whole heart idly…!!!!
No, he rigged the absentee ballots and the ballot counting. Check out to see who counted your absentee ballots in your state. Do you know? I know in mine, they were counted by employees of a spin off of Acorn.
There is no way one candidate could recieve 99% of the votes for him this absouluely stinks of fraud with numbers that skewed it woul be either Republican votes were not counted or the machine registered all republican votes as democrat votes knowing that other cadidates recieved apx 1% nation wide and you see the point if you cant you are deluding yourself
Blame the republican PARTY for been so COWARD AND COMPLICIT IN THE FRAUD, they receive order from the “POWER TO BE”(ILLUMINATE), to keep silent and look the other way, or ELSE.
Amen, Brother!!!!
@Zorro: I read where the Republican Party signed an agreement not to contest an election; the Dems also signed it. I think this was done decades ago. This is why there is silence about the fraud and cheating of the Dems and why unfortunately there will be no recount. I think it’s so unfair it stinks but it is what it is. I don’t know what the answer is to this travesty! I think Mitt won hands down. The map was blazing red! How could he loose? Then right in the end things strangely swung Obama’s way. Mitt drew the largest crowds and he was the one declared to be winning, but then suddenly Obama was decleared the “winner” before all the votes were even in! We all know there was mass cheating and fraud by the Dems and Libs; some were caught; some not like the Hispanic who bragged that he was able to use all 3 of his ID’s to vote 3 times for Obama and I read also that two million dead people were on the voting rolls in CA I think it was. Not one single instance was reported of a Republican or Independent cheating; it was all Dems. What does that tell ya?
Gosh, we really have become like those ‘voter-rigged’ communist countries! No doubt in my mind that Obama cheated his way to a win!
I cannot prove that a STUXNET virus was used but it would not be unbelievable that this regieme and all it’s communist parts would not employ this virus if it aided their agenda…
Looks like Chicago politics has gone nation-wide. We’re accustomed to these 100% Democrat votes in Chicago precincts. Occasionally they mess up and stuff the ballot box a little too zealously. In 2010, our precinct cast 8700 votes for the Democrats. Only problem is, there are only 8200 registered voters in this precinct! OOPS! But, nobody ever investigates, nobody ever goes to prison, and the Democrat Thug Machine rolls on…. and on. In some elections were we have shown 100% votes for Democrats in our precinct. I KNOW that’s impossible because I voted Republican. But, aooarebtkt my vote got converted over to a Democrat vote. We MUST make a HUGE issue of this nation-wide! We can NOT allow our elections to be stolen, in the polling booths, in the counting centers, or extraneously by remote control. Otherwise, we have simply deteriorated to a Banana Republic. Also, Voter ID is NOT NEGOTIABLE! We MUST DEMAND Voter ID nationwide!
Voter ID won’t be needed in the future. Remember we now have King Obama in charge.

I’ll bet my life vote fraud was off the charts. The worthless sissy repubs have had years to physically grab some throats and fix this. If there is no law then lets get physical with these communist parasites. The military should remove them and hang them. Lets do it.
Agreed Krauthammer ! It is a sad state when the United States of America has a two time illegitimate mamas boy President that is basically a radical, Communist, terrorist Muslim, part time homosexual, crack smoking, Chicago ghetto thug. Im sorry but i have to say it like it is man. The United States Military can refuse to obey a Presidents rules if he is unable to provide Presidential qualifications as well as arresting him if he is deemed a threat to national security. Barack Hussein Obama is a threat and has no qualifications. Physically remove him !
You are so right but this country is full of people who are afraid of being arrested and put in jail, our country is too full of ass kissers and idiots who believe that the world is square. These Obama lovers will be the cause of the destruction of the greatest country in the world but they will blame it on everyone else but them or the idiots they elected.
I have lived enough but I worry about grandkids and great grandkids, I worry about them having to get stuck paying back all of this money the Muslim has gotten us into with debt. His wife feels she is entitled to any and everything including big vacations that we the tax payers pay for and for her mother and other family to live in the White House and travel with her. God Bless our country because the gay, drug user, illegal, Muslim is going to destroy her and all of these ones who voted for him should be kicked out and sent to Kenya with him and his lousy friends.
I WOULD BE WILLING TO PUT MONEY ON IT……AND I WOULD BET HE HAD A LOT TO DO WITH THE BLACK PANTHERS PATROLLING IN FRONT OF POLLING STATIONS…….NO WAY COULD HE HAVE WON FLORIDA…..HE SHOULD HAVE LOST BY A LANDSLIDE…….THE SENIORS OF FLORIDA WERE PROBABLY AFRAID OF GOING TO THE POLLS…..
They say there were black panthers at some of the poling places that ran people off refusing to allow them to vote. How the hell can this happen in America and why does the law allow it and why can’t there be a recount or another election. This was worse than 08 and the ones Bush won also. This country has gone down and is headed to hell and it is because the citizens of this country have become ass kissers who are afraid to stand up for their rights and what the whole country needs to do is demand the arrest of that gay illegal freak that they polls were rigged for him to win and all of his little mob starting with Holder, Nancy, Harry, Valarie and anyone else involved in this scam.
Obama probably didn’t do any of this stuff, but I bet his UNION buddies sure did! The UNIONS will do whatever it takes to keep what they got and take more!
Oh, I’ve no doubt there were efforts made to shield Barry boy from any direct contact with fraudulent voting but it is impossible to believe that he didn’t encourage and/or condone such efforts. He has magnanimously stated that “the buck stops here” meaning with him. Knowledge of such efforts had to make its way into the WH one way or another. Knowledge before the fact makes him an accessory to a felony, just another among the many this criminal has committed since he arrived on the political scene dating as far back as you want to go in his career which has and continues to be based entirely on lies. Only a “black” democrat could get away with all the stuff on the Obama’s rap sheet.
Smoki, I read where a construction work went to Russia to work in 1992 and a very angry Communist Russian woman gloated that “a young black man named Barack born of a white women was being groomed by Communists and will one day be President of the US”. That has been my thoughts since the very beginning of knowing about him and listening to him a few times. It didn’t take long for me to figure it out and my fears have been realized. I don’t know how true what I read is, but it rings true to me. Action speaks way louder than words..

I do believe you nailed it! But did you have to use a railroad spike and sledgehammer?
But, it might not have been the unions; it might well have been the Democratic party itself with some blind-eye watchfulness of the Republican party, which is why I strongly believe we need a third party in government.
The administration is up to their neck in this. A third party would on divide the votes between the republicans and themselves. It just mucks up the water.

Semper Fi!
Jake
This is BULL DOO DOO, I say paper ballots 100% that way you have a paper trail. And i guess the ## they mark on it can lead back to the Voter to make sure that is hum you Voted for……..
This Whole election was RIGGED in every Manner Possible. What a Crock of Bull Loney. I Never saw so many Whites standing in the weather to Vote, NEVER, and I’m 65! And –you know damned well that the Great White Guilt That got this MYSTERY MAN Se-Lected, the First time,was USED UP long ago by The”Little Tin God”– “Obammy Yo- Mammy”!! –SOMEONE needs to raise That ‘Civilian Army’, The “Kenyan Kommie Klown” Usurper Wants,–as strong as the Regular Military, and DO Something!! ANYTHING!!
Why don’t we Raise that Civilian Corps, and Swarm into Mexico and Take Over, like They’re Doing Here?? We could start a new Nation, without Dems etc.
All this talk, I am sorry…..I am disgusted with the whole system and government too!!! Do you really believe anyone is going to look at it seriously. He is black, and they are not going to touch it for fear of being accused of racism. At this point I feel I will never go to the polls again!!!
I told my husband the same thing. I have no desire to ever vote again. If one looses their honesty and integrity they have an empty sole. This is now an empty government that I’ll have a hard time backing.
Yep, obama and his henchmen/women stole the election again. We were warned that this would happen. Why has God allowed this? Because, too many good men/women did nothing. The Rpubs are pitiful cowards who will probably do nothing about this LIAR-IN-CHEAT/KILLER. See website: http://www.haasstrep68.com
THE ENTIRE ELECTION NEEDS TO BE DONE OVER
sign recount petition at http://www.petition2congress.com
Nothing makes sense. All day we kept hearing that there was massive turnout. My theory is that they deleted Romney votes rather than adding bogus Obama votes. It would be a lot easier to delete votes than to have to create millions of bogus voter identities. The deleting of Romney votes would also account for the supposed low turnout. Deleted votes could not be tracked, it’s like they never existed. Another reason that deleted votes makes sense is that Obama received 10 million less votes than last time, much easier to delete a few million that make up 10 million plus.
There is no doubt in my mind. The election was rigged by the lib media and I think the unions were behind all this crap. O only knows one way and that is the Chicago way. I live in Ohio and there were reports of voting machines if you voted for Romney it would come up Obama. There were people who went to vote and told they had already voted. At one early precinct, bus loads of somolians came and they could not speak English or read it and the only interpreters were dems so they helped them vote. I looked up how you become a citizen and under a certain age, 55 or 60, you must be able to read our language or speak it, so were they illegals. I have heard of this thing all over the country and have not heard any where it went in Mitt’s favor. And the black panthers again at a voting places. Even the UN people who were at some polling places, were very surprised by our lax voting laws. We will never know how many votes for Mitt were not counted. And the thing that makes me the most upset, we worry about giving more time to people here in this country but our military personnel aren’t even taken into consideration and they are the ones who should be counted over anyone else.
Sign the recount petition @ http://www.petition2congress.com!
The old saying, It aint who votes that counts, it is who cunts the votes!! 99% NO WAY NO HOW NOWHERE!!!!!!
I dont care who are any two candidates running anywhere no one ever gets 99% people are never that in tune. Not even if George Washington rose from the dead and ran would he get 99%
There is no doubt in my mind. We know it, and the White House knows that we are aware, but we can’t do a thing about it. Nor can we do anything about the many military who were completely screwed out of voting. WE ahve b een screwed by the commie/Islamic regime
When Obama came out on stage and strutted around my mind was seeing him laughing at all of his followers saying “sucker”..he was laughing at all of us. I’m not a very cynical person but knowing what was happening it almost made me physically sick. I’ve had enough…..
I hate conspiracy theories. But anyone who paid attention this election must have noticed this:
Every single instance of problems with the electronic voting machines erred on the side of Obama.
Why is it we never heard of any machines recording Obama votes for Romney?
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THIS MAD RABID DOG RIGGED ANYTHING THE SOB COULD GET TO!!!, REALLY GO BACK AND CHECK OUT THE PICTURE INTRODUCING THIS, IT LOOKS AN FEN RABID DOG!!!
Honestly,does anyone actually believe that was the actual count?..It doesn’t surprise me at ALL. Waited 61/2 hrs in line to cast my vote.(have pnuemonia to show for it) 10 voting machines only 2 worked because the other 8 kept defaulting to obama votes! Egregious (!) is the only word that comes to mind. Oh and Romey won my state because they started reporting it on the East Coast first.
Everybody knows he cheated to win the first time and he cheated this time as well,but nobody especially those who SHOULD do something about it (namely CONGRESS) don’t have the spine to challege him.He should have been impeached years ago,but “we the people” no longer have representation in our government.In my fathers day, congressmen that did these things to the country ,got their knee caps blown off by double barrel shot guns.If we get a few congressmen walking around on one leg suddenly ALL of them will start doing their jobs again.We know where they work and we know where they live.It’s unfortunate that it may take this extreme action to wake them up.
It would be nice if they started putting voter laws and some sort of serious oversight in place before the 2016. Places like Philadelphia, Illinois and Ohio are playgrounds for the corrupt. Of course, none will come to pass because then they may lose. Satan is having a field day!
I believe it was rigged. Look at what happened in NV with scary greed and the SEIU! This time it went national!
Of course monkey faced jugears rigged it,along with his unions……..AMERICA THE GHETTOFUL.
IF HE WAS CAPABLE OF HIDING HIS DOCUMENTS OF PAST WHAT MAKES YOU THINK HE WOULDN’T HIDE HIS ABILITY TO RIG VOTING. HERE IS A THOUGHT: SUPPOSE THOSE THAT VOTE HAD TO BE TAX PAYERS OR PROPERTY OWNERS BEFORE YOU WERE ALLOWED TO VOTE. THAT WAY ONLY THOSE THAT CONTRIBUTE WOULD BE ALLOWED THAT PRIVILEGE. THAT WAY THOSE THAT WERE ON THE FREEBEE LIST WOULD HAVE NO SAY!!!!! I WAS AMAZED AT THE MENTALITY OF SOME. IF THEY DIDN’T KNOW SIMPLE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE GOV. WHY SHOULDTHEY BE ALLOWED TO VOTE?
I am sure obama did something illegal to improve his odds, but more importantly I have this to say and hope that Donald Trump
At this point, the best option to get rid of Obama forever is to have Donald Trump and a number of his other Rich friends to put a BOUNTY ON OBAMA’S RECORDS. I bet if there was ten or twenty million dollars for those records it would not be very long until something showed up.
I super agree. When Trump came out with the 5 mil offer to charity if Obama produced his records, I was right there and said he should be offering 5 mil to ANYONE who could produce his information. And I say now, put that bounty or more out there and someone,whoever can provide it, will either be bought off, threatened (he or she or their family), or assassinated. This is a crowd that deals in intimidation. Why else did Mr. Hillary back off the ’08 primary. These are criminals. We’ve had them in all levels of government from the beginning. This is no different, except worse. There’s stuff going on you haven’t even imagined.
Ask yourself this simple question, would any republican vote for a republican congressman but then vote for the democrat senate candidate and then Obama? In Ohio we have 18 congressional seats everyone who votes get to vote for 1 congressman. EVERYONE 1 congressman and 1 senator (Ohio this cycle) and president. So in Ohio of 18 congressional races, 13 were won by republicans most in wide margins and 5 for democrats a few with wide margins, but remember congressional districts are based on equal populations, So every congressman vote gets 1 president vote so 13 x that is potus vote total for repubs and 5x that is potus votes for dems. When does 13x = 5x? It doesn’t and it doesn’t make sense at all here in Ohio. And there are more states the same way. How do you send a majority of repub congressman to Washington, but not senators and certainly not the president? The math doesn’t add up, especially in Ohio. Check your own state congressional race totals if you went repub or dem, add it up and see.
You make an excellent and obvious point, but who is it that can challenge this obvious fraud. Does the local government officials have the right to challenge the legitimacy of the vote? If so, then you need to start a political action group to challenge the vote. The only way any of this crap is going to change is if we the people take an active and aggressive stance against political corruption. Do you have an investigative reporter that you feel is honest? Some has to do something, if not you, then who?
Voting machines i.e. computer screens are not ballots there is no ballot involved once you have a screen to select from. It is absurd to trust a system where the vote is cast into a black box you just do not know which way the vote goes. You have to be monumentally stupid to accept such high-tech chicanery as even remotely democratic.
As with all things tilted leftwards, democracy has never been their strong suit. Remember the German Democratic Party that ran the most efficient deficient East German economy had “Democratic” in its name. Wise up folks, any organization that has “Democratic” in its name has a high chance of being nothing of the sort. All the chatter about vote suppression among the indolent who are not prepared to go out and register is ridiculous. It is a civic duty to vote but it should be voluntary to register and participate. If you can’t even manage the minimum to do so, by registering, then please stay out of the process. It is not unfair to ignore those who do not muster the minimum effort to go and vote. As for those who don’t speak the language….. Tough! Democracy is not about voting per se it is about being aware of what is manifest by each political candidate and then selecting your choice and marking you ballot paper. The left dragoon voters to the polls, tell them what to do, it is even so bad as in some places the poll workers “help” the voter make the “right” selection. This is dishonest.
Reform is desperately needed; no one should take seriously the allegations of voter suppression that is baloney and merely cover for fraud and quasi fraudulent practices. Vote rigging and ballot stuffing are the norm for the left. The right is occasionally tempted but not on the same scale, it is a tradition of the left. Communist parties have always had bother at election times; their record is abysmal at the polls which merely match their record in government; so poll rigging is unsurprisingly a tradition for such political animals.
What should be done?
1. A federal voting standard is needed for all public and corporate elections including trade unions and the like.
2. All votes must be by indelible pen on a card with a serial number.
3. All voters must be on a voter’s roll for their area. It is the duty of the voter to be sure they are on it. Voter suppression isn’t a problem where the indolent don’t bother to register.
4. The voter must be issued a valid vote ID card showing their voter roll status plus a photo on a secure card like a credit card. Similar technology can be used to the credit card industry.
5. All voters’ ID vote cards are scanned at the polling station; if a duplicate vote is detected they should be flagged for investigation after the poll is over.
6. Ballot cards/papers should be issued with a serial number on the ballot, as alluded to above, and the serial number of the voter appended to it. Not strictly a secret ballot but it is a secure audit trail for the election. This is the system in the UK to discourage vote stuffing and worse.
7. Spoiled vote cards should be eliminated from the election. Abstentions should be an option for votes from the whole election.
8. Votes may be counted by machine though all parties at the election should have the right to count the vote with their own machines. The final tally has to be agreed between the observers not the counters.
9. The vote should always be countable by hand. This is crucial; you must have a ballot that can be ascertained by counting physically by machine and or by hand. In the UK all counting is done by government officers in front of representatives from the political parties who sign off on all votes counted before the count numbers are submitted to the returning officer of the election.
10. I was appalled to attend while my late wife Marilyn Daljord Gray voted by machine in Brooklyn, the whole apparatus was confusing, dilapidated and engendered no confidence that the process was secure. On some occasions the machines didn’t work.
11. Marilyn was a poll worker for the Democratic Party, though she often voted libertarian or Conservative never Republican per se. She worked at the polls to keep the process honest. More people need to do this.
12. Keep it simple stupid or KISS is the watchword for elections. Ballots must be real not virtual the Constitution demands it, a computer screen is not a ballot and the “black box” of the computer is innately untrustworthy and an open invitation to fraud. “…People with higher incomes constitute a minority, an economically dominant minority (to paraphrase Amy Chua). People with low incomes are in the majority, a politically dominant majority. The rich are politically impoverished; the poor politically rich. The rich dominate the economy, the poor dominate the polity”. To quote from Ilanna Mercer’s column on WND.
13. Some semblance of veracity is necessary to ensure that the results are real is all that is asked for. The left have a rich tradition of defrauding the vote, why stop now with computers?
14. Note the modem question, if a voting machine reports via a modem that means it can be got at remotely via the same modem! Why would anyone trust such a ludicrous concept?
15. The best you can get is a semi secret ballot so long as the paper is real, an audit trail is essential to detect or prevent ballot stuffing, and finally a manual count can be inserted where manifest shenanigans is evident.
16. Oh! Send those who transgress voting laws for significant periods of time to prison and exclude them from the voting for life. If they vote then return them to prison.
17. Judicial over sight should be available for all elections with powers to annul an election and call a thoroughly scrutinized and closely supervised bye-election which would obviate most fraud attempts. There should also be a power to exclude all voting apparatus and return to a simple paper ballot if there is evidence of machine failure.
18. It is essential that all election processes take place in open forum with all parties present at the polling stations and for the retrieval of ballot boxes to the counting halls. Vote counting should be before representatives of the contending parties at all times.
19. One final thing, the ballot boxes should be transparent and the ballot papers should have a fluorescent dye to ensure authenticity that fluoresces at a specified frequency. All ballots to be printed and serial numbered at a single print run in front of members of all parties at the printing press ballot papers to be boxed and sealed for each constituency only to be opened in front of all observers at the polling station. Any tampered boxes to be scrapped.
These are few ideas to keep the system honest, currently it isn’t halfway honest. The talk of voter suppression is absurd to a large extent. Panthers at the polls are not acceptable or the KKK for that matter.
The method is simple extirpate black box voting and keep to the paper with a serial number audit trail if needed.
One final warning do not get gulled into taking on European voting practices such as the single transferable vote and the like, these systems ultimately disenfranchise the voters and are simply hoaxes on the voting public.

All of your ideas are good and legitimate, that’s why they will never be implemented anywhere. Who do you think would try to implement any of these safeguards? The Congress, the Supreme Court, Local lawmakers?
The congress is made up mostly of self serving insider trading crooks who would never upset the apple cart because they would fear losing their God given right to steal from the people of this country. Everyone of them are afraid of appearing to be racist and if they were to implement these changes or try to, then they would be attacked as being racist, understand that anyone that goes against the minorities entitlement plans is labeled a racist. There is so much to be said about the pathetic representative that are in congress, I could write an entire blog on just that subject alone and never run out of material.
The Supreme Court? Give me a break. The founding fathers made the supreme court in such a way as it shouldn’t be politically motivated by having them appointed for life and not fear of losing their positions. It was a good idea in principle but, the reality is that everyone is politically motivated regardless of position. It was a mistake to structure it the way it is. The position is appointed by the President which is nothing but a political animal with nothing but their own agenda at heart. It would be foolish to think that the appointee isn’t of the same political persuasion as the politician that appointed him or her. That’s why one of the major problems with the re-election of Obama is so dangerous because he will appoint 2 justices in the next four years. So now the court will be liberal majority by far and nothing he or any other liberal does will be struck down by the Court. This may be the single most dangerous thing about Obama’s 2nd term. Something needs to be done about this part of the system.
Local law makers? They are as bad or worse than the Federal politicians. With that said, I don’t believe any of them are anything but political hacks but even if they weren’t and they tried to implement local laws that would limit the corruption of the voting system the federal government would step in and stop whatever action or laws that were implemented. You say “what about States’ Rights”? Don’t they have the ultimate say so on what happens in the State? Well, they used to, but remember the Supreme court has jurisdiction over the states when it comes to law and who do you think they are going to back, the local rights of the State or the guy who appointed them? The answer is obvious.
I don’t profess to know the answers to these questions and how to get the changes made and get this country back on track. I think the only politician that actually stands for the people’s rights and the Constitution is (was) Ron Paul and he has given up and getting out of public office. It’s a sad state of affairs when the people who try to do the right thing are ridiculed by the Media as an old fool and senile?
We the people need to take back our country and government. Make no mistake, forums like this and any other communication medium will be under control of the Feds in the very near future because it is the only way to assemble and take back this country. They will never allow this to happen.
I am not advocating a shooting war by any means. I think it would be a terrible thing and unfortunately we would not have a chance against the military anyway. Hillary and Obama are already conspiring with the U.N. to take away our 2nd amendment right to bear arms, not that they really fear that an armed militia would stand a chance. They just don’t want it to get to that point, and what better assurance than to disarm the private citizens.
I think that maybe if an active aggressive effort was made to replace the current politicians ALL OF THEM with new people may have a chance. If the new people didn’t do what we wanted, then replace them. I think active prosecution of vote fraud by any one in a position to authority in every single instance may deter some of the blatant fraud. Removing private companies from the equation of counting votes and going with some type of checks and balance to assure the vote is accurately counted is a absolute must before any meaningful change can occur.
The other thing that needs to be done is disposing of the Electoral College system and back to the poplar vote to elect all officials. Bear in mind that many millions of people don’t vote because of this system. How many Republicans and independents didn’t bother to vote because they live in Illinois?
With the current system, what’s the point of voting because it truly doesn’t count.
I’m afraid this is just too much to overcome because the American people have allowed all this stuff to go on too long and I believe it is now beyond repair. I hope I’m wrong .
Bitch… Bitch… So which of you Repub WIMPS going to do about it ??
roymcd. I hope your proud for what you have said here.
For several weeks, I have been posting about the voting mechanism… the computer software… If you google SMARTMATIC, you will see much information about the various elections that have been rigged by this company!… They were responsible for the illegal wins by Chavez in Venezuela and Slobodan Milosovic! They were even sued in a Chicago election a few years ago! I hope and believe something will be uncovered! I have been walking and talking with God most of my life and am 71 years old so that’s a lot of years! Let’s see what God has in store…. He is our Hope! My prayer now is that God will uncover the works of darkness and remove it from our great nation! Maybe this had to happen to show the extent of the corruption in our nation…. Who knows! I confess I don’t but I do Know God!… He is good, always!
If you remember, there must have been some practice reporting going on Friday, October 19, at 3:30PM this year! For approximately 17 seconds, CBS News affiliate KPHO located Phoenix, Arizona ran this bottom banner graphic which clearly shows Obama winning – Obama (D)* 40,237,966 43% and Romney losing the election – Romney (R) 38,116,216 40%! EXCEPT we were still 18 days away from the election. when CBS flashed the bottom of the screen… It seems the media bosses called the election won by none other than President Barack Obama – and their secret plan to fix the election got out by mistake. Did the Lame Stream Media and Obamites strip the American people of their precious votes? What do you think? I know what I think: ABSOLUTELY! This is outrageous! I believe they had some kind of default setting to switch a Romney vote to Obama….(this was complained about several times) Anyhow, now it is in the hands of God we will wait and see what happens! Have faith in God! Without faith it is impossible to please God!
I see God’s hand in every single thing; even this. If ever I doubt my faith, I need only to look to the liberals to see Satan hard at work. If there is a Satan,and there is, then there is a God, and there is. God sees Satan’s work and will counter it. Keep faith.
Hats off to Western Center for Journalism for this article! It needed to be said… It needs to be screamed until our Congress wakes up and ACTS! Otherwise, we have No Hope for America! Sincerest Thanks!
Talk About Bunch Of Idiots… Y’all Need A Hobby To Do Other Then Sitting Around Passing Judgment On People…. Time To Put y’all Big Girl Panties On And Suck It Up… Get On With YOur Lives
Obama Won Just As Fair As Bush Did In His Past Elections…. So Suck It Up… I Didn’t Hear You Republican’s Bitching About Bush Rigging All The Votes…
The Dems. can and will do anything to stay in power. All should know that the lier in chief will never do anything directly he cannot and will not take the blame for anything.
Get ready for all hell to break loose if the UN gun treaty is signed.
jdvier,
I agree with you, and for the so called people that calls them selves AMERCANS get in line you can go to where ever this regime ends up.
Hope your feet don’t get to burned walking on hot coals.
Voting in West Palm beach Florida, there were groups filling out papper ballots by the thousands. WE now live in Castro Cuba, Putin Russia, and Chavez Venezuela. We tried the ballot box and now there is only one box left. Prepare yourself to efend what you own. There will be attacks on all our rights including private property rights. You know, to give everyone a free shot. In the words of the Communist Revolution its Forward.
Don’t we wish we had a Joe McCarthy in the Senate today. Labeled an extremist in the 50′s, even if he was it would be nice to have a Senator who actually gave a damn in the Senate today.
There is not one of those WIMPS in CONGRESS that would take on OBOZO. They are all in his back pocket and we have to put up with this until 2014 or IMPEACH the whole buncho fo them on the following grounds
1. Theft of FICA Funds, ( from LBJ on for all Democrats )
2 TREASON charges for the MURDER of our LIBYA Embassy and Military people
3. LIEING to JOHN Q. PULIC on many situation.
4. Congress for not following the CONSTITUTION on who can run for the Presidenty
Where should I stop.
The only problem is obtaining a court that would hear such cases. They are all so crocked .
Maybe we should try the HAGUE in Belgiu, the INternation COURT. .
The WAR has begun, it will be between the Have’s and the Have NOT’S. The haves will win. So get your weapons oiled up and plenty of AMMO stored up. Thjis will be a BLODY ONE>
OBTW, the first item Obama did was go after the UN Arms Treaty after the election to get ur guns.
You had better not have a gu9n or concealed weapons permit on record. If you do , say good by to your fie arms. This guy , OBOZO and his henchman **** ERIC – - SS- GESTAPO – - HLDER *** will do anything to move their agenda along . Your weapons are just a drop in t he bucket of what this **** TOWN CLOWN ***** OBOZO will do.
During the airing of “The People’s Court” the news alert clip indicated Obama won – 2 weeks before the election: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gznaRhuP73c
Since the making of this show, C.C. shows a ‘changed’ position – now pro BHO. Some say “true colors” showing, previous hidden.
You would’t print what I have on my mind.So I will just say I hope GOD come down and distroyes the earth of all the corruption.I
I just hope he forgives those that turned on him and voted for the Socialist and Marxist that we have in our Government.
I totally agree with you on this one. We are linited as to what we can put down in print, but they ask us to SPEAK YOUR MIND>
It is amazing that the same people who think Obama’s ideology and policies are perfect also feel the need to lie and cheat to implement those policies. If an idea has merit, it will stand alone without help from anyone.

175,000 votes are not enough difference to be stuck with a traitor for four more years of torture
If there is 175,000 votes that are known about, how many more MILLIONS are there that we don’t know about. That is the $ 64 dollar question. Look at all that mess down in Florida, and those in Cincinnati, Pittsburg, PHILLY and other Cites that are so called Heavily Democratic ??????????????/
It is time that this whole mess is straightened out by tossing out EVERY BALLOT AND VOTER RECORDED.Then start all over with both parties having INSPECTORS at each polling station. ONE MAN ONE VOTE is the law of the land except where OBOZO – the magnicicent one – is concerned. He, OBOZO can do anything, he doesn’t think the CONSTITUTION exists. It is time to show this, I can’t write what i would liek to call him here on these pages, just what the CONSTITUTION REALLY IS. This guy needs to set in JAIL AND ROT for what he has done.
I’m sure he will get over 100% next time. Oh yes there will be a third election, dictators don’t have term limits.

Did Our Birther-IN-Chief Barry Soetoro Rig Anything? No, He Is Very Lazy And About 7/8 Coyote, Plus Very Hard To “Pin Anything” On, However If You “Pull-Up SCYTL” The Voting Machine Company Behind This “Suspect Election Re-Count You Will Find That None Other Than Pres Barry Soetoro AKA Barack Obama Sold “Processing Rights To SCYTL Which Operates Out Of “SPAIN” !! The Plot Thickens Because The Buyer Was None Other Than The “Leader Of The Democrat Party George Soros AKA Gyorgy Schwartz Who Is 100% “Coyote”!!! Now Do You Still Want A Re-Count??? God Bless America And The Real Tea Party Patriots.
If this election wasn’t rigged…there’s no rice in China
Sign and pass along the recount petition @ http://www.petition2congress.com/8222/petition-recount-on-2012-presidential-election
And the democrats were sooooo concerned that a republican owned some interest in a company that makes the machines!
Could it be that they were afraid that someone might figure out that they had tampered with the machines and tried to distract our attention?
I think he certainly stole the vote and his operatives used computer software to change peoples selection from Romney to Obama and if they didnt double check their ballot, they voted for obama. Plus, I think they stuffed the ballot boxes by voting numerous times.
Did obama rig the voting machines? Garfield the cat can answer that better than anyone. WELL DUUUUHHHHH!!!
