October 31, 201411 yr Re: guns, booze, sudaphed and Blockbuster: You'd be surprised how many voters don't live in Kentucky. Ahh, but those 49 million (and counting) that receive SNAP had to have an ID. It's OK for that but not for voting?
October 31, 201411 yr Yes, more whites than blacks voted in '12, but a greater percentage of blacks (as opposed to whites) who were eligible to vote did indeed cast ballots two years ago -- which is what that 13 percent figure is about. (Revisit post No. 3.) I did, post 3 doesn't prove that. Also 12.6% of the population is black. 12.6% of the voters in 2012 were black.
October 31, 201411 yr Describes ultra- conservatives to a tee. Damn nuts, all of 'em! 9-11 was an inside job... Newtown never happened.... bin-Laden isn't dead.... global warming is a farce.... Sarah Palin is awesome... science sucks ... evolution is fiction- we are the creations of an all-powerful space nanny. These far right-wingers should have their own planet. I did not expect any serious response to my post outlining the details of the Sauk City office that issues voter photo IDs. You did not disappoint me. What is your specific field of science? I know that I have asked the question at least a couple of times before but I think that you have failed to answer the question at least a couple of times. Your posts just do not paint a mental picture of a scientist for some reason. Maybe you are simply a sci-fi fan. A Dr. Who fan, maybe?

October 31, 201411 yr Describes ultra- conservatives to a tee. Damn nuts, all of 'em! 9-11 was an inside job... Newtown never happened.... bin-Laden isn't dead.... global warming is a farce.... Sarah Palin is awesome... science sucks ... evolution is fiction- we are the creations of an all-powerful space nanny. These far right-wingers should have their own planet. Well, as a conservative, I'll bite: I never hear a conservative say 9-11 was an inside job - I have heard some left wingers say that though. There were some weird things about the handling of Newtown but I don't think anyone but people "really out there" think it did not happen. I think the fact that it took some liberals about 10 seconds to make Newtown all about guns is ridiculous. Who says Bin Laden is not dead? Global warming is interesting IMO. Liberals in the 70's were warning about global cooling - now it is warming. Now I hear the ice caps are actually growing again. I am not sure what to think of it. What I find astounding about it is that the global warming people say the science is conclusive and nobody has a right to even question it. What? A bunch of people are making a whole lot of money peddling the global warming agenda - that makes me suspicious of it. Regarding Palin, I am not a huge fan but no politician has been subject to a more orchestrated smear campaign ever than her. Liberals were very fearful of her in the beginning - attractive, articulate conservative woman - so she had to be destroyed and the media did its job for the liberals. I won't get into the science. If you think all religious people are right wing nut jobs, I don't know what to say. Last time I checked, the Christian churches had a whole bunch of liberals in them.
October 31, 201411 yr Stopping illegal activity probably would have won it for him. Just because the result will be a certain outcome should not be a reason to combat blatant illegal activity. And Philly is a close second to Chicago in cooking the ballots. Romney was completely shocked they lost Pennsylvania - even though the judge stopped the law. I think Philly had 50+ precincts with no Romney votes. That covered thousands of vote. Given typical error rates in people/machines/process (around 1-3%) that is statically impossible without human tinkering.

October 31, 201411 yr Quote of the Day: Ian Williams Goddard | Scott Rhymer A society whose citizens refuse to see and investigate the facts, who refuse to believe that their government and their media will routinely lie to them and fabricate a reality contrary to verifiable facts, is a society that chooses and deserves the Police State Dictatorship it is going to get. – Ian Williams Goddard

In the election of 1860, Honest Abe got zero votes in Graves County, Kentucky.
October 31, 201411 yr You're wrong. Not impossible. Not all that unusual, in fact. In the election of 1860, Honest Abe got zero votes in Graves County, Kentucky. Over thousands and thousands of votes...not one old lady hit the wrong button, punched the chad, incorrectly filled out a scan sheet? Not one. Those are some super human voters in those precincts. For a sample of 10 - no big deal. I saw where Louisiana did their 100% analysis...a few precincts were 100% one way or the other...they all had less than 30 votes. In Chicago a precinct that is only 25% black but cast thousands of votes was 100% Obama. Those committing vote fraud should take a class in probability and statistics. It is impossible given normal statistics for the events of recent elections to occur without organized fraud.

Romney's 47 percent comment probably lost him the remaining 10 percent in some of these urban precincts. This isn't about bell curves. It's about saying stupid stuff.
October 31, 201411 yr In Oregon, everyone votes by mail. That's where we need to be headed in all 50 states. Well, then, you'd better have the election about 2 year in advance so the Postal Service can get the ballots (or realistically about 85% of them) delivered in time.
November 1, 201411 yr Romney's 47 percent comment probably lost him the remaining 10 percent in some of these urban precincts. This isn't about bell curves. It's about saying stupid stuff. He was telling the truth. So I guess telling the truth is stupid? Make sure you teach your children that.
