Romney got ZERO votes!

Post by sjfcontrol »

Fox News is reporting that there are sections of Philly and Chicago where Romney got ZERO votes.
59 Philadelphia voting 'divisions' (a sub-precinct of a thousand or so voters) where Romney didn't get a single vote.
Zooming out, there are 6 (of 60) "wards" in Philly where Obama took 99+ percent. With slight rounding it would be 13 wards.
Joe Sestak, a former Democratic congressman says he see no foul-play in these numbers.

There were also certain parts of Philly where the turnout rate exceeded 90% -- triggering suspicions of "poorly-managed voter roles".

In Chicago, in 10 of 50 wards, Obama got 98% of the vote -- and in 6 of those it was over 99%

Wow, we haven't seen that type of overwhelming support for a dear leader since Kim Jong-Il.

Hugo Chavez must wonder what he is doing wrong, as even he doesn't get that type of support. :lol:

It seems statistically improbable. I wonder if there any areas where Romney got 98% of the vote?

I have a feeling we DO need UN supervision of our elections after all.

When I lived in California, I lived in a predominantly black neighborhood. We were one of maybe 2 or 3 white families in a 10 square block area, and I know for a fact that one of the white families nearest me were not even close to conservative. In fact, they were probably overt communists, that's how liberal they were. I think it is safe say that when my wife and I voted at the precinct polling place literally around the corner from us, we were probably the only two republican votes. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the elderly black lady who ran the polling place in her garage knew we were the only republican voters, and she kind of got a kick out of seeing us come in. Our votes didn't hurt her candidates any since there was just two of us, and she could afford to feel magnanimous and "fair." No telling what she would have done if half the voters were republican.....

Y'all take a look at King County, Texas. It is sparsely populated but voted roughly 96% for Romney, so yes, things like this happen.

If 100 people vote, 1 person is going to accidentally pull the wrong lever. You can't get 100% of the public to agree on anything, just like that add on TV "who likes more money".

Nothing to see here. Just move along.

No wonder the New Black Panthers were out protecting voters in Philadelphia from being intimidated by Republicans at Philly polling places in 2008.

Or just maybe... nah, there wouldn't be. But just maybe... there might be a tad bit of voter fraud there.
