/ Rio Arriba Arriba Arriba !!!

I think Bill kept quite a few boxes overnight in his time.

"What these? Oh... these were... extras... yeah."

B-b-but voter fraud!

All those idiots who have been preaching about photo IDs for the past few years seem to forget that your IDs don't matter if people can simply steal and stuff the ballot boxes.

I don't see anything wrong with this. Hillary Clinton (and Bill) have always set a good, honest example and I don't see how their supporters would do anything to jeopardize that reputation before such an important election. This is just the rabid, right-wing media making something out of nothing; it was just a minor oversight, nothing to get hysterical over.

What happened to "count every vote"?

it doesn't matter, she'll suppress any news of it from getting to the core of her support anyway, the backwater yokels who've never heard of the internet but remember the name clinton vaguely, and choose it because it doesn't look like the name of some country in south africa

What are you talking about? No honest politician would ever do that!

If you dare defy me, I will destroy you.

Hey, if you need some illegal shiat done, just call on the Mexicans.

So because one type of fraud remains a possibility, there's no point fixing any others? Riiiight.

Diebolwned.

"I understand there was a big snowstorm up there, and I realize people were up late and might have slept in this morning. It's possible - perhaps even likely - that there is nothing fishy going on here."

Yeah, bullshiat. Anyone involved in voter fraud needs to spend a long time in prison.

New Mexican? What happened to the old Mexican?

Defeat all DumboKKKrats: If you dare defy me, I will destroy you.

Bullets, an idiot in an SUV, et al, haven't managed yet destroy me yet. You're welcome to try though ;)

THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT VOTE FRAUD HAS EVER OCCURED

See? This is why we need Diebold to host all elections. It takes maybe five minutes to rig one. No noticable missing votes, no questionable time lapses, just simple clean fraud. You can even do it from your car with a laptop if you're in a hurry.

only Repubs can have voting shenanigans...

I blame Bush or Karl Rove.

!No chingues!

Seriously though, WTF!?! The state as a whole was within 200 votes, and we're missing ballot boxes in people's houses? When are we going to get our shiat together and allow the UN to monitor elections in this country? I'm seriously starting to think the elections in Iraq and Venezuela were less corrupt than ours here in the bastion of the 'free world'.

These guys are such amateurs. I recall an election a few years ago in France where the loser got more votes than there were registered voters.

I'm all for electronic voting, but here's how:

The machine records votes electronically, but is printing two tickets at the same time the voter can see AND verify. In the end one ticket is output to the voter whom deposits it into a card reader lock-box, the second stays in the machine's locking spool case. In the event of a recount, the tickets can be counted against each other.

That'll cut back on fraud of one type.

Different kind of license...

If there's one thing Americans will not tolerate, it's untoward practices in the elctoral process.

Cheops: THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT VOTE FRAUD HAS EVER OCCURED

That doesn't make it any less suspicious

Who's the bigger cocksucker;

The cocksucker who plays dirty, or the cocksucker who changed the rules to MAKE 'em dirty?

I suppose either way, you got two cocksuckers.

silly proles... Don't you know the Star Chamber has ALREADY decided who the next potus will be? The 'elections' are for only show.

No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

There you go, downplaying election fraud so you can play up voter fraud.

If you had said something to the effect of "so because one type of fraud happens..." maybe we could reach some agreement, but you appear pretty ideologically opposed to accepting that box stuffing not only happens, but is a much greater risk to our electoral process.

One guy voting as a dead guy every few years is bad, but is a small problem. A candidate destroying hundreds upon hundreds of ballots and replacing them with phony ballots is a huge problem. We should be spending our resources addressing this bigger problem.

Wait, I thought only Republicans stole elections!

At least that's what the media taught me.

Does it really matter? This isn't winner take all. How many delegates does NM get? 28? 14 to Clinton and 14 to Obama. Problem solved. Why are they still counting?

FTFY. Seriously, every vote should count. Let's reduce all fraud instead of saying one is simply not important.

This show is dragging on too long. Why don't they just come out and tell us.

I based my donation to B Hussein based on the number of states that he won. It matters to ME!

Hosebeatings: Wait, I thought only Republicans stole elections!

And what better way for a Republican to steal an election than to run as a Democrat?

But Richard Martinez told Santa Fe New Mexican reporter Kate Nash that the boxes actually spent the night in the homes of three polling-place managers.

So they were shuttling them around between three homes all night? Sumptin ain't right.

Shaggy_C: allow the UN to monitor elections in this country?

We can't. I mean I suppose the UN could be allowed in to offer advice, but it'd all have to be non-binding, non-enforceable. Why? The Constitution. The US electoral process can't be under the control of a foreign body. To allow the UN to actually be in charge of it would require a Constitutional amendment, and I doubt that will be forthcoming.

How did I get so lucky? I move from Florida to get away from, among other things, stupid voters, and now here I am in New Mexico.

On the plus side, this "scandal" is really pretty simplistic. The race is super close here, and the Democrats award delegates proportionally, so the "winner" here is likely to pick up at most a single delegate over the "loser," and maybe not even one.

And there was not "a big snowstorm," there was an ENORMOUS snowstorm, the kind that would have brought Washington, D.C. (where I also spent some time) to a total standstill.

Suck it, carpers.

Ace Frehley's Ghost: And what better way for a Republican to steal an election than to run as a Democrat?

Yeah, because Republicans are Marxists like Hillary. I want a pound of whatever you've been smoking.

AMATEURS !

sycraft: To allow the UN to actually be in charge of it would require a Constitutional amendment, and I doubt that will be forthcoming.

I said 'monitor'. That means the same thing as 'observe'. Obviously our own government has a vested interest in the results and cannot be trusted to count and collect votes. I would have no problem with a 3rd party providing an unbiased approval of methods and results.
