Voter fraud alert: Watch Ohio
Peter Bronson blows the whistle on the state of Ohio’s top election official engaging in partisan voter registration shenanigans.
Keep an eye on this:
If Ohio polling looks like Chicago, ‘thank’ Brunner
Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner has a reputation as the most partisan state official in Ohio. And she works hard to earn it. The Democrat’s latest stunt rejected absentee ballots for thousands of Republicans.
But it’s not her first rodeo. Almost as soon as Brunner was elected in 2006, she tried to remove several Republican county elections officials, including Ohio Republican Party Chairman Robert Bennett. They accused her of “storm trooper tactics” to silence critics.
Then Brunner spread an alarm that Ohio’s electronic voting machines were vulnerable to tampering – a favorite claim of the paranoid left. Elections officials who participated in Brunner’s study called her conclusions over-hyped “leaps in logic” and said, “The report itself could be viewed as an attack on the elections system … (that) planted seeds in the mind of the public to mistrust those who oversee elections.”
Brunner also demanded an overhaul of voting methods just before the March primaries, causing meltdowns in some precincts.
And now she’s hassling Republicans who want to vote for John McCain…

Demo-thugs at work.
If ya can’t beat ‘em, cheat ‘em.
The only way dem’s can win is cheat. Is there some way a R representive can be at each poll and see our votes are counted?
L
The Chinese gymnast thingy…again.
Dem’s favorite motto: “Win if you can, lose if you must, but cheat at all times.”
Can’t we just change the motto to “Watch the 57 States” ????
It’s Killin em and
I Love it!!!
McCain/Palin 08′
Really scary that voting is such a joke in the US. The republicans when they were in charge shoulod have made voter reform their #1 priority. Scary that odumbo may win because of his friends in the dem party and ACORN.
Jennifer Brunner…I wonder if she had a sister named Mary.
Being that my husband and I are absentee voters in NY, I just had a frank conversation with one of the board of elections officials. She tried to reassure me that they would try to get out our ballots ASAP and that the process ran smoothly. She’s even going to email me when she sends out our ballots and I will email her back. If we should not receive them on time (or someone should steal them from our mailbox which has happened with some of our mail in the past), she’ll make every effort to send out new ballots.
Yeah, I know, it’s NY so how much difference will our vote make? It’s still our votes, no matter how blue a state NY is.
Let’s not forget this…
The other end of the article:
Two sides to every coin.
When asked to comment, Jennifer Brunner refered any questions to her legal team of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe.
The margin in Ohio will be too great for Mizzzzzzz Brunner and Cuyahoga County combined to overcome.
madchef,
You’re on a roll! Don’t stop now!
“It’s not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes.”
Expect donkey vote fraud and voter disenfranchisement on an industrial level this election — for along with the media’s casting away even the pretense of objectivity, it’s going to be part of the full-court press to get Hopenchange installed in the White House along with a donkey majority in Congress.
I found ironically hilarious Hopenchange’s quip in the linked article, about being “glad it’s the donkeys who’ll be in charge of the voting machines in Ohio this year” — given that in 2004 all of the Ohio counties in which “irregularities” were alleged had donkeys in charge of the county election boards.
Freudian slip, perhaps?
Quis custodiet custodes ipsos? That’s an important question to answer whenever there are donkeys participating in the vote count.
I am so tired of hearing how the election hinges on Ohio. Why bother to vote? Okay, I’m voting no matter what, but this process has become more and more of a problem. I never vote early because I don’t trust my vote will count and this reminds me I have not recieved my voter card yet. Better make a call pronto.
Well, now, you can’t blame the poor Dems for cheating any way they can. They have a hard time winning otherwise and when they do lose, they like to say “we just didn’t get our message across.” Yeah. Message received. Thanks but no thanks!
By any means necessary.
And this is just one of many in many states (57 maybe?).
I’m thoroughly disgusted with the practicing of lies, cheating and deceit from, seemingly, the entire left.
start a petition to but mandatory photo id laws to vote, and birth certificate laws to get those photo id’s. in missouri i had to take my passport to get my drivers license, and i now have to present my drivers license to vote, so soon a lot less dead st louisans will be voting.
A related note - I always laugh at Democrat suspicions that Bush/Rove “stole” Ohio in 2004.
My neighbor, six doors down, has a brilliant daughter who unfortunately wastes her talent as a lawyer for the Democrat Party. She was placed on the ground for weeks in Ohio just before election day in 2004.
Against the rules, she called her father the weekend before election day to release some emotions and tell him that the Kerry Campaign’s internal Ohio numbers showed that they had no chance, and therefore, the election was lost barring any unforeseen events.
That Tuesday at work, I became somewhat of a hero by using her information to “predict” a Bush/Cheney victory – even though the “exit polling” was trending so far towards Kerry that, until around 5:30 PM EST, online betting sites were overwhelmingly predicting a Kerry win.
The rest is history, but this history taught me that there was something seriously wrong with the “exit polling” in 2004, as it contradicted Kerry’s own internal polling so wildly.
In general, I beware of all polling conducted by media outlets. They are just too suspect for me.
Isn’t it funny how the lefties cried and whined about the “hanging chads” back in 2000? They demanded we get rid of the paper ballot and use electronic technology to vote. Now it’s the electronic system that is useless to them. Sheesh, lefties; can’t live with ‘em, can’t herd ‘em all into Canada.
Only if a lot of people who are concerned about it volunteer to be poll watchers. Got your name in?
On September 3, 2008, Barak Obama said:
More on voter registration issues in Ohio.
(emphasis added)
So, Jennifer Brunner is the Secretary of State AND the entire State Supreme Court? Wow! She’s special. Someone that can serve in two branches of government at the same time!
What makes her statement, that a law is unconstitutional, absolutely correct? Because she wants it to be? Has the Ohio Supreme Court overturned the law because it is unconstitutional? If so, can you provide the case site?
Or is this just some partisan hack spouting typical liberal spew to mobilize the knuckle-draggers in the media to produce more lies about Republicans?
Here in Tennessee, voting is run pretty well. The machines are electronic, but they have been reliable and easy to use. The precinct workers are unfailingly nice and helpful, and strictly non-partisan. At least in my county and city they are.
I can’t vouch for Memphis (DetroitSouth), where Democrats run everything.
Is there a swing state that Obama HASN’T been trying to commit voter fraud?
I think -maybe- Wyoming is safe. Otherwise.. the Obama Vote-Stealing Machine is in high gear.
Voter Fraud in Colorado Springs
The Gazette isn’t reporting which side is doing it, but, this town is so heavily Republican, I’m certain even lgm could figure out which one…lol
has the ACORN machine moved to Ohio??
TooMuchTime said:
A Hack. More info from WSJ
on another happy note, I received, not one, but two voter registration cards for myself.
Me being a Republican, I will inform El Paso Co Registrar. Doubt very sincerely that a Democrat would be as honest.
I live here in Ohio and I will be working at the polls on Election Day. The machines are fine and secure. Brunner, however is not secure or stable.
@formewm
It won’t just be Ohio this time, I don’t believe. It will be the entire Big-Ten region.
@cheapseat
We have to present photo ID in Ohio to vote.
@txvet
In Ohio, every polling place is manned by poll workers who are either recruited by the board of elections or recommended by the central committee member (of both parties) of that polling district. It is required to have an even number of D and R poll workers. Monitors are welcome, but there are usually enough safeguards in place. The exceptions of course, are the urban counties (Cuyahoga, Lucas, Franklin, and Hamilton) and the corrupt from top-to-bottom Stark county. These are significant populations where not everyone knows everyone else in their precinct…areas primed, ripe, and ready for fraud.
As a not-so-casual-observer, I’d say Ms. Brunner meets the qualifications of moon + bat. I thought that as soon as she was elected. Her primary purpose in Ohio has been to establish doubt, early and often, about Ohio’s voting systems. Unfortunately, she has largely succeeded, which puts a beleaguered public in the position of believing “there might be something to this” when DNC lawyers start bellyaching about unfair elections in Ohio.

No I haven’t. I am ill and don’t get out much. I will be voting though.
L
Umm. No.
Sorry cheapseat, but you’re wrong. Our (ahem) esteemed Sec. of State, Robin Carnahan (D) challenged MO’s new picture ID requirement shortly after it became law, and the MO Supreme Court threw it out.
Still don’t have to present any kind of photo ID to vote in MO. In fact, depending on where you vote and how consciencious your polling place “volunteers” are, you might not have to present any kind of ID at all.
Is there any state, any locale whatever, that we don’t have to watch for massive voter fraud this year?
Ms Brunner is a “wonderful” followup to our previous Sec. of State, Ken Blackwell who was accused of voting “hankey-pankey” that allegedly “helped” Pres. Bush win the 2004 Election. (BTW-Nothing ever really came of those charges.)
If the MSM would do its ethical job instead of being water-carriers for their “preferred” political party, the people would see that it is the Democrats are the political party that engages in significant amounts of inappropriate conduct and partisan politics.
The democrats knew in 2000 that Florida was going to be close. They picked 4 strategic districts (heavily democrat and run by democrats) just in case. When the final tally was close, the democrat storm troopers were mobilized in those 4 districts. Remember, the recount was NOT in all of Florida; only in those 4 districts.
The democrats knew they couldn’t recount the entire state of Florida because areas like the panhandle are heavily Republican. Bush would have picked up votes there.
In 2004, they targeted Ohio. The lead-up to the election was all about how the electronic voting machines were innacurate. The only innacuracies are what the democrats tell the media to say.
I was at a party over the weekend. I was the ONLY conservative there out of about 35-40 people. (I live in the Peoples Socialist Democracy of California). One knuckle-dragger was going on about a documentary that “proved” the 2004 results from Ohio were “suspect.” She was talking about how if you voted for John Kerry, the results might be tallied for Joe Schmoe. I knew I couldn’t answer her because I would have become a target. What about a vote for George Bush being tallied for John Kerry? Could that have happened? Probably not. Doesn’t matter, though. It’s all part and parcel of how the Republicans cheat.
How about this: no absentee ballots; drag your a$$ off the couch and go vote. Photo ID required. All ballots are the same; a marking pen must be used. When you vote, you dip your finger in indelible ink.
Isn’t tyrannical socialism wonderful?
It’s all part of the same theme: Republicans steal elections, so Dems can righteously register voters fraudulently to overcome GOP chicanery. Anything that forces an honest election is, therefore, racist.
Article (Note how the author uses the phrase “the myth of voter fraud”. How many lawyers do you think the Obama campaign has on retainer for the upcoming election for that myth?)
Comrade right_on, I find your lack of party fervor to be most distressing. Socialism is not tyranny! A century of failure proves nothing!
I denounce you.
/sarc off
Can someone “of color” please explain to me what is racist about requiring IDs before entering a voting booth?
Because the true racists, liberals, say so.
Maybe one of you can help me with this. My husband has not voted in a very long time due to frustration with the whole process….I know shame on him. Well I am trying to get him to realize that he is part of the problem if he does not vote. In Louisiana the rule is that if you have not voted in 2 Federal elections you are supposed to be dropped. When I went to vote in the primary election I noticed that his name was on the book right below mine. Now I know that he has not voted in at least the last 4-5 Fed elections. Should we be concerned about this and how do we find out if someone has voted in his name?

My thoughts exactly. That’s a Malcolm X quote, and Obama is a believer of “Black Liberation Theology”, which is nothing more than Malcolm X’s radical agenda, wrapped in a Christian facade.
Who is “Inspired” to “Bring an Empire to its Knees”?
Think premptive lawsuit.
I’d love to see a mandate that, due to the overwhelming evidence of fraud, each voter must prove their citizenship and identity prior to being allowed to vote.
It’s required for employment.
Why isn’t it required for elections?
There is no valid excuse. The only people who oppose it are Democratic Socialist Communists who have no chance of winning an election without FRAUD.
I agree with you completely.
The argument from the other side is that this disenfranchises poor people who can’t afford to get an ID (nevermind the fact that the states that pass laws like this will give them out for free). The reality is that they want illegal votes. They know they can’t win without them.
They also know they can’t win by trying to run on what they REALLY believe.
guitarplayer,
Agreed. Democrats can’t reveal what they really believe.
Where Democrats Get Their Talking Points
I must say, sadly, this process of cheating, slandering, and scandal mongering along with what’s happening with so-called “bailouts”, is pushing us ever closer to un-mentionable possibilities which should concern us all. Somebody needs to remind the Dems: Americans don’t want socialism and they are not all completely ignorant of how this nation started and why….
I’m concerned about the fact that “smart cards” have been stolen in prior elections. Democratic Socialist Hackers might be able to program them use them to “stuff the ballot box” in this election.
Also, when people vote by mail, I have two concerns:
I continue to pray for all corruption to be exposed, prosecuted, and prevented in the election.
In a nutshell, it depends on the district as to what they allow to go on.
A friend of mine moved prior to the 2004 election. When she went to register in her new county (heavily democrat), her voter card got “held up”. So, she wasn’t able to vote. Care to guess what party she was listed as?
I’m in Memphis and I’ve had pretty much the same experience as you have. The poll workers are nice, helpful, and I actually appreciate that they ask for my driver’s license. I’m in a recently annexed suburb though. In a few of the inner city precincts we have the dead rising from the grave and fictitious addresses. Oh, and I can’t forget the poll worker or two that doesn’t actually go to the poll on election day, but will put their John Hancock on official forms. Gotta love those Dems.
Where shouldn’t we be watching? It seems to be everywhere.
Don’t forget the Gregoire lesson: keep counting until you get the results you want, then declare victory.
While I agree in spirit, your approach would disenfranchise those of us in the military who can not vote at home. This would hurt the Republicans worse than the Dems-bulbs I believe. I would love it if they would put voting stations aboard all military bases that could forward the results to the state of which the voter was a resident.
Good point. You have to provide ID to buy a car, open a bank account, be approved on a mortgage, get a drivers license, etc. Why in hell should voting be any different? The Dems will fight tooth and nail against any ID laws while accusing the GOP of resurrecting ‘poll taxes’ and other such crap to tie voter ID to racism. Horse Hockey! There is only one reason to be against voter ID laws and that is because voter fraud is easier without photo ID.
Also, if I move and do not provide change of address forms to the post office, my employer or my bank, it would cause me lots of grief and rightly so. How could I be disenfranchised if I do not follow the law and my notice gets returned, or I fail to register to vote in my new precinct? It is not that hard to go down to the County Clerk’s office, or BMV, and register to vote.
I have no sympathy for idiots.
Again, the absolute contempt the Ohio city ‘Liberals’ have for the rest of the regions in Ohio is truly amazing…then again, “we’uns” is just poor inbred redneck trash and are the unenlightened ones, who are poor ignorant children that “cling to their guns and reglion” and that have the SAME vote at the ‘Liberals’…Yes, I live in the country in the State of Ohio and Liberals are NOT Democrats, they are communist socialists and communist sympathizers.
One of Brunner’s dirtier tricks in the flap over voting machines (that she created) was to demand that the various county Boards of Elections withdraw the machines in favor of (easily doctored) paper ballots (not the previously-used, easily-processed, and hard to tamper with punchcard system). But (there’s always a “but” with her), to do that legally, first the BoEs needed a directive from her decertifying the machines. Which she refused to issue. Of course, if the BoEs had removed the machines without her decertification, they would have been violating Federal election laws and been subject to at least suspension, certainly investigation, and quite possibly arrest- by U.S. Marshals.
There is a reason nobody in this state trusts “Miss” Brunner*.
* This is what I call her, and even casual fans of the Jerry Cornelius novels of Michael Moorcock get the reference.
cheers
eon
Have you ever noticed that the only ones out there claiming that the electronic voting is susceptible to tampering are the Dems and their Liberal Thugs…yet the people who are known to hack and tamper are also known Libral Thugs and Democrats?
Projection anyone?
Remember, claim fraud at every turn unless the Democrats win…that’s the only time nothing is tampered with. Just like the 2006 elections, right?
