FReepers call to register as Democrats to do voting fraud
Edited on Sun Feb-17-08 12:35 PM by Ferret Mike
The FReeps want to move up from FReeping polls to warp the results, they want to vandalize the system itself. Someone needs to take legal action on this, as if an online virtual community openly promotes destroying the integrity of the vote, they deserve to be shut down.

Freeper Call To Action: VOTE FOR HILLARY (Primary), DESTROY THE DEMOCRAT PARTY


Posted on 02/16/2008 12:38:14 PM PST by Bronco_Buster_FweetHyagh


Barack Obama is going to win the Democratic nomination unless there is a surge for Hillary Clinton. John McCain can destroy Hillary, but he is in serious trouble against Obama.



The PERFECT STORM of liberal politics is converging: (a) A Woman candidate, versus (b) A Black candidate, counting on (c) rightfully disenfranchised voters in MI and FL, setting up a(d) Florida 2000 repeat, popular vote (Obama) may be overruled by delegates (Clinton) situation, with interest groups pitted against each other, (e) race-baiting, (f) gender-baiting, ending in (g) a Democrat convention completely tearing apart at the seams in a civil race gender war, with every dirty political trick coming out.

We, Republicans, have the opportunity to help the Democrats self-destruct. However, in order to do this, we MUST help Hillary Clinton as much as possible, in order to keep her close enough to the nomination that she will not concede.

THE FOLLOWING PRIMARIES ARE UPCOMING:

2/19 Hawaii, Washington, Wisconsin

3/4 Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas, Vermont

3/8 Wyoming

3/11 Mississippi

FREEPERS, this email needs to go out to every republican, conservative, fried and family member you know. We must get people to get out to the primary voting locations and VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON.

REMEMBER: 1) You can register to vote for Hillary Democrat / Primary now, and CHANGE REGISTRATION TO REPUBLICAN later.

2) YOU CAN ALWAYS JUST SHOW UP AT THE DEMOCRAT POLLING PLACES, AND SAY YOU WANT TO VOTE FOR A DEMOCRAT, DEMAND A PROVISIONAL BALLOT ---- DEMAND A PROVISIONAL BALLOT ----

Let's use the Democrats own dirty tricks against them. They have set up the election system to allow illegal aliens to come and vote, they don't even ask for a picture ID or anything, because THEY WANT TO WIN EVEN WITH FRAUD. In doing so, they SCREWED THEMSELVES BY OPENING THIS DOOR - in almost every State, you can walk up to the polling place and SIMPLY DEMAND A BALLOT, DEMAND THE RIGHT TO VOTE.

12. The call for fraud makes them vulnerable
I saw that about the thread too, but people are hyper sensitive about voter fraud, and anything that puts FReeper feet to the fire for not having the good ethics to see when they are calling for and supporting; or even debating doing illegal acts is fair game.

This sort of thread is indefensible, and if they want to keep it live and active they are going to have to display how their criminal minds think when they try to justify doing so.

They leave themselves vulnerable for investigation when they do calls to action like this, and the authorities should investigate and act on this if they deem it appropriate to do so.

It is a serious matter when an organization of associations like Free Republic does things like this.

24. It's not fraud. It's not illegal.
It might not be ethical, but it's not fraud.

27. A few hundred votes
A few hundred votes can change the outcome. {Example: Florida - 2000}
June 7th, Porta Rico has its primary, and that little island has 63 delegates going to the convention. So every vote counts. The winner of Porta Rico my win the whole thing.

6. They don't have to, there's nothing illegal about it.
I've done the opposite several times.

Edited on Sun Feb-17-08 01:32 PM by lizzy
The freepers are saying if they are gonna vote for someone in a democratic primary, it's gonna be Obama.
Will he get their vote in GE?
I think only if the hell freezes over.

19. I suspect a lot of this is going to go on.
Republicans got their candidate, now they can mess up democratic primaries in any way they want.
It's not fraud, unfortunately.
They are not doing anything illegal. They are just affecting the result however way they please.

5. Funny
How some people don't mind as much that so many Republicans have crossed lines to vote for Obama.

Don't you get tired of your own hypocrisy?

30. I just did a reply all to some email nonsense regarding Obama being Muslim.
I wish it were just one guy. I'm still coresponding with one idiot Republican today who says "I don't want the war to come here" "Democrats want Muslim prayer in school" and "Barack Osama is a Muslim" :(

I think we better prepare ourselves for more mass ignorance?

11. This is not voting fraud.
Democrats in Michigan got similar emails prior to the michigan primary suggesting that they request a republican ballot and vote for romney for tactical reasons.

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=59649

Me, I'm an independent. Do you think I am committing voter fraud if I have the audacity to vote in an open primary?

13. Freepers are irrelevent
There aren't enough of them to matter.

Also, there are no laws against doing what you described.

15. More then that...
... FReepers are too lazy to go to their own rallies, so they certainly would never do this in large numbers anyway. I'm more amused then alarmed and fear they have the active minions to make a large impact politically anymore. I know they do not, the numbers of posters and the quality of their product is way down from their hay day.

But the point I see in this is how similar this is to how their hero Bush and his administration operates. So when a puppet Bush booster organization like this emulates the bad ethics of their hero, it is worth it to take note of it.

This sort of thread and mindset shows what it takes to be a Bush bot.

16. Not fraud. Your post might be though.
If the state's primary rules permit open voting or allow registration changes on the spot then no fraud has occurred.

17. Republicans have already been voting in our Primary elections. The ones Obama won.
Obama has his base, and it isn't traditional Democrats.

21. The GOP has been interferring with Dem primaries since 1972
They have been interfering with THIS primary for over a year (that is why John Edwards had to drop out). They were stumping for Obama to try to even things up with Hillary to get a brokered convention. The very moment Obama caught up with Hillary, they switched sides and are trying to keep her even with Obama to get a brokered convention.

They are determined to see us repeat 1968 (as I predicted way back in November in my journals if anyone cares to look back that far into ancient DU history).

Even MSNBC, that used to make fun of Hillary and support Obama has done a 180 degree turn.
