    How to win elections, democrat style ...

    Pittsburgh voter rolls included:

    1,600 dead people
    7,500 duplicates
    1,523 voters over 100 years old
    1,178 voters who gave no date of birth

    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...stered-voters/

    No proof that these are democrats, but there's no proof the sun will come up on Friday either.

    Our resident Democrats have assured us there is no voter fraud in this country.

      Interesting article though may I note that Breitbert did neglect to mention which way those 25,511 people voted ....?

        all of them?

        none of them?


        aren't rolls purged every so many years of inactive voters?

        and wasn't there a stink about that relatively recently?

          Yes Breitbart is a tabloid that sensationalizes some piece of news to fire up imaginations, often by withholding relevant aspects of the story. It's a propaganda site, not a news site, and most of their readers go there to get their buttons pushed in a specific certain way. It is no different really than someone reaching for a copy of Der Stürmer or Pravda in the 1930's.

            When the dead continue to vote they're not considered inactive and not purged.

            Since our taxpayer paid representatives are aware of the problem and not doing anything perhaps a solution would be to require everyone who intends to vote to re-register every few years. The voter rolls would be wiped clean except for those who register again. No re-registration = No name on the voter rolls = No voting.

            This wouldn't be any harder or inconvenient than renewing your DL every 4 years or so and could perhaps be done at the same time even.

                Yes. In Arkansas, if you do not vote in a federal election, you are classed as an "Inactive Voter" by law. If you don't vote in the next election, you are presumed to have moved away, died, etc., and dropped from the rolls.

                The rolls are available on line, and county by county about 1/3 of registered voters are classified "inactive." But in SOME counties, there are NO "Inactive Voters." That's how Arkansas stayed solidly Democrat for about 135 years.

                  Ray, of course CNN is over the top. I have said so many times. So what is this pot/kettle business?

                  The antidote for propaganda is...STOP VIEWING PROPAGANDA....not watch more of it, in a futile quest for balance.

                    Those people switched parties. With gerrymandering the incentives to cheat go to the party defending slight advantages in many districts. The packed districts around Little Rock are so heavily democratic that there's no incentive for organized cheating, and disorganized cheating is proven ineffectual.

                    An election is a complex measurement, more of an engineering problem than something for a historian to try to wrap their head around.

                      .
                      And old saying meaning for instance..you're a fool..and the response being and yes so are you, both are fools...or some thing like that......The bottoms of both pots are black..comes from when cooking was done over open flames and the pots got black on the bottoms I guess. Maybe someone has a better explanation...

                        DRAMATICALLY different from CNN! Do Breitbart, Rush, etc have their own TV networks staffed with hundreds political activists masquerading as "journalists" (what a laugh!) ?
