    Agreed. What was even funnier about it was when the poll worker called a county BOE official, I heard the official say "well on the SOS website it says..." :laugh::rolleyes:

    and the current system isn't easy for fraud? You can just walk up and pick a name and vote, not like the old people manning the booths are going to catch anyone. Not to mention the long lines, confusion, etc, etc.

    Mitt up about 200 votes in FLA.

    Republicans will retain the House and it's dead even in the Senate so far.

    I understand, but it at least takes some effort. First you have to show up and wait in line to commit fraud. Second, you can't just walk up with a list of names and vote for all of them.

    They're barely past the early voting results. It will be a long night for Ohio.

    The provisional ballots are beyond stupid. 10 days to count them?
  • Ty Webb
    MSNBC called PA too
  • jordo212000
    The John King segments are beyond stupid.
  • Crimson streak
    I never expected Romney to win pa. There's so many more democratic voters in pa it's ridiculous. I believe it over 1 mill more than republicans
  • pmoney25
    None of this will matter if Romney doesn't get Florida
  • jordo212000
    Romney's lead in Virginia is shrinking

    Florida is close but the big population counties which are Dem have the most votes left it seems.

    if you set it as 1 SS#/DOB, 1 vote, you couldn't have a list of names and vote all of those either.

    ???

    If I have a list of SS/DOB, which are readily available to many people, I can sit at a computer and cast many votes.

    there isn't going to be a clear winner for days, all these states being called without counting the votes is stupid.
  • IggyPride00
    Fox just called Wisconsin for Obama.

    It's just the media trying to keep people interested and watching before they head to bed

    so, what's your solution then? Keep the same old system with delays and all the other problems? This is the 21st century and we are voting like it's 1920.
