Here is an article about Minnesota–
Minnesota Ripe for Election Fraud
Monday, November 10, 2008
By John R. Lott Jr.
Minnesota is becoming to 2008 politics what Florida was in 2000 or Washington State in 2006 — a real mess. The outcome will determine whether Democrats get 58 members of the U.S. Senate, giving them an effective filibuster-proof vote on many issues.
When voters woke up on Wednesday morning after the election, Senator Norm Coleman led Al Franken by what seemed like a relatively comfortable 725 votes. By Wednesday night, that lead had shrunk to 477. By Thursday night, it was down to 336. By Friday, it was 239. Late Sunday night, the difference had gone down to just 221 — a total change over 4 days of 504 votes.
Amazingly, this all has occurred even though there hasn’t even yet been a recount. Just local election officials correcting claimed typos in how the numbers were reported. Counties will certify their results today, and their final results will be sent to the secretary of state by Friday. The actual recount won’t even start until November 19.
Correcting these typos was claimed to add 435 votes to Franken and take 69 votes from Coleman. Corrections were posted in other races, but they were only a fraction of those for the Senate. The Senate gains for Franken were 2.5 times the gain for Obama in the presidential race count, 2.9 times the total gain that Democrats got across all Minnesota congressional races, and 5 times the net loss that Democrats suffered for all state House races.
Virtually all of Franken’s new votes came from just three out of 4130 precincts, and almost half the gain (246 votes) occurred in one precinct — Two Harbors, a small town north of Duluth along Lake Superior — a heavily Democratic precinct where Obama received 64 percent of the vote. None of the other races had any changes in their vote totals in that precinct.
To put this change in perspective, that single precinct’s corrections accounted for a significantly larger net swing in votes between the parties than occurred for all the precincts in the entire state for the presidential, congressional, or state house races.
The two other precincts (Mountain Iron in St. Louis county and Partridge Township in Pine county) accounted for another 100 votes each. The change in each precinct was half as large as the pickup for Obama from the corrections for the entire state.
The Minneapolis Star Tribune attributed these types of mistakes to “exhausted county officials,” and that indeed might be true, but the sizes of the errors in these three precincts are surprisingly large.
Indeed, the 504 total new votes for Franken from all the precincts is greater than adding together all the changes for all the precincts in the entire state for the presidential, congressional, and state house races combined (a sum of 482). It was also true that precincts that gave Obama a larger percentage of the vote were statistically more likely to make a correction that helped Franken
Eat me. We’ve been through that bullshit here in 2004, and we know your guys playbook inside out. Do anything to stop the vote counting while your side is ahead.
Just like here, they’re still counting the votes, and there’s a good chance Franken will be ahead by the end of the day.

rhp6033spews:
Funny, Cynical didn’t seem to think the statistical problems with the Ohio vote in 2004 were significant. He seemed to think at the time that it was tough – votes were votes, and since the count was in Bush’s favor, everything else was irrelevant
6
rhp6033spews:
The 2000 Presidential election recount in Florida, and the 2004 Washington State guvenatorial challenge, all were preceeded by a contested Alabama State Supreme Court election, managed by Rove. The tactics in all three were nearly identical. Expect to see the same in Minnesota.
You know, this kinda thing is going to be an ongoing complaint. I think Obama will likely clean up a lot of the destruction of the last 8 years in the executive branch. But while those things get cleaned up I bet there will be temptation on the part of staff to exercise some of the same freedoms that Bush gave them but in the opposite direction. I bet we’ll hear some howling from the right who thought letting the executive take these powers was just peachy when they were in power…

Original Auschwitz Blueprints Found;
Plans Show Gas Chambers
A German newspaper reports that original Auschwitz blueprints have been found in a Berlin apartment. The architect’s drawings, which are dated Oct. 23, 1941, include gas chambers and corpse-handling facilities that are clearly marked as such.
The blueprints are important because they “reveal that everyone who had … anything … to do with the planning and construction of the concentration camp must have know that people were to be gassed to death in assembly-line fashion,” the newspaper Bild wrote, “refut[ing] once and for all claims by those who deny the Holocaust even took place.”

@12: It is just sick that an architect would “design” a death camp complete with gas chambers.
Holocaust deniers are the scum of the earth. Revisionists who try to deny what was the most horrible crime on the 20th century. Never forget that gays, gypsies, political prisoners and others were also treated the same way. No one should be treated like that – and I fault Clinton for not having the poltical courage to intervene in Rwanda – but praise him for the Balkans. (Clinton even admits Rwanda as his biggest mistake).

My Left Footspews:
Once saw my father hit a man for denying to him that the Holocaust existed. I was 15. If someone were to deny the facts of the Holocaust to me, in my fathers memory and in his honor, I would drop them on the spot.
My father: Jewish, Army Airborne Ranger, Sergeant, he was at the gate when Dachau was opened and freed. He saw it. He carried the walking dead to vehicles. He KNEW it existed. He TOUCHED its horrors.
In his later years as the owner of a store in Oregon, a young man came in with a swastika tattoo on his arm. My father went up to him, and while touching his arm, ask “Do you know what that stands for, what it means?”. The young man said “Old man, it stands for white power”. My father explained what the symbol really meant, what is stood for and told him to leave the store and not to return with the tattoo showing. Ever again. The young man left with a grumble.
Several weeks later he was in the store again, 97 degree day. He had on a plaid flannel shirt.

Average Toyota auto worker wages and benefits is $48 an hour.
Average wages and benefits for management and professional workers, it is $47 an hour.

I guess you would have had to serve when he served, the way he served. You would have had to have seen what he saw, walked where he walked. He was a disciplined man. He beat no one. He lived the Ranger Creed from the time he was 17 until he passed away at 67. He was worn out by life and war and he died far too young. He helped save not the United States, but the entire world.
You on the other hand just sit and type whatever drivel happens to cross your mind. Did you serve, marvin? Something tells me you did not.
Were you and I to meet, honor will compel me to allow you the opportunity to apologize for your remarks concerning my father. Should you fail to utilize that opportunity that same honor would require that I close your mouth for you.

You silly old man. Honor is knowing when to take a stand. Honor is knowing when turn and walk away. Honor is having the courage of your convictions.
What honor is not is hiding behind your keyboard and monitor and hurling invectives. Honor is not calling into question the family of your adversary.
The threat of violence, genius, is what makes it safe for you to walk the streets in America and to spout the ignorant pearls that you find so amusing. Without those who had honor enough to overcome their fears, who honorably laid down their lives, you would not be free to speak so much as a word of dissent in public.
You owe my father and my son and their brothers a debt of gratitude for their service, for their violence, sir, for without them and others like them you would not enjoy the freedom to be the arrogant, thoughtless, sub-human life form into which you have morphed.
Feel free to voice your opinion. Just don’t denigrate my family. If you want to claim that the Holocaust did not happen, fine with me. If you spout that crap in front of me, be prepared to have me point out, in no uncertain terms, how foolish and cowardly you have lived your life.

Though Republicans were more negative about the election results 2008, they were consistently more upbeat than Democrats were in 2004 when their candidate, John Kerry, failed to unseat Bush. Forty-four percent of Democrats said they were angry and half said they were depressed in a November 2004 AP-Ipsos poll, double the GOP’s rates this year.

Ahh. He was always that way. Stupes, you lost. You thought right wing bullshit would carry the day so you could gloat over a right wing victory. You were wrong. Decent ordinary people can’t stand right wing bullshit. It hurts their ears. Its stink lingers in the room.
You failed.
Marvin Stamn spews:
From your words, it appears you believe violence is the answer to being offended.
Where’s your tolerance for opposing views?
Hypocrite.
Can’t blame you, it was how you were brought up. To use your fists when people say stuff you don’t want to hear.
For people like you, free speech is only for people saying what you want to hear.
How democrat of you.
In your mind, honor means violence. How sad for you and your siblings to be raised in such an environment.

Endless growth is ultimately self-defeating. Besides, contractors hire mostly undocumented workers anyway.
They can build fewer houses of better quality and pay union wages. The house won’t cost more because they’ll have to take a smaller profit.

re 33: “Where’s your tolerance for opposing views?”
Do you want to have a pro and con discussion of the holocaust?
YLB spews:
Where’s your tolerance for opposing views?
We’re well aware of your opposing views. We shrug and say “you’re wrong”. Last 8 years? ’nuff said.
It’s your silly agenda we can’t stand.
Face it. Your agenda has been stopped in its tracks. All the crap you’ve spewed here to support that agenda has turned out to be just that – crap.
But I guess you’ll keep coming back here as long as you’re paid. Money down the drain, IMHO.

marvin,
You silly old man. Honor is knowing when to take a stand. Honor is knowing when turn and walk away. Honor is having the courage of your convictions.
What honor is not is hiding behind your keyboard and monitor and hurling invectives. Honor is not calling into question the family of your adversary.
The threat of violence, genius, is what makes it safe for you to walk the streets in America and to spout the ignorant pearls that you find so amusing. Without those who had honor enough to overcome their fears, who honorably laid down their lives, you would not be free to speak so much as a word of dissent in public.
You owe my father and my son and their brothers a debt of gratitude for their service, for their violence, sir, for without them and others like them you would not enjoy the freedom to be the arrogant, thoughtless, sub-human life form into which you have morphed.
Feel free to voice your opinion. Just don’t denigrate my family. If you want to claim that the Holocaust did not happen, fine with me. If you spout that crap in front of me, be prepared to have me point out, in no uncertain terms, how foolish and cowardly you have lived your life.

We have no idea if your telling the truth or if your spewing liberal feel good stuff however,if it is the truth, too bad you didn’t take after him in values and respect for others.
If your dad read any of your posts he would roll over in his grave.
Steve spews:
@38 Honor and service is “liberal feel good stuff”? It appears that, following your ass-whupping on the 4th, you wing-nuts have gone off the deep end. It’s fun for me to watch, but it must really suck to be you.
My Left Foot spews:

You always talk out of your ass, boy?
My values are identical to my father’s and to my son’s. They were honed the very same way. Use your head, you will figure it out eventually.
Thanks for playing.

@39
Actually no, It’s fun seeing libs try and defend themselves or others.
Today on the radio a Liberal said obama IQ is off the board, the host asked what is his IQ? The Lib went on saying he would be the smartest POTUS we ever had. Again the host asked what is his IQ? The lib asked the host what do you think it is? The host said I don’t know do you?
The lib said no idea but it must be high. “JUST WORDS”
Jake spews:
@40
Than you, for confirming my conclusion.
Steve spews:
@41 “It’s fun seeing libs try and defend themselves or others”
You must be starving for some fun. It’s far easier and much more rewarding to watch wing-nut heads explode here at HA. Speaking of which, thanks for sharing.

Great to be a Republican loser.
Though Republicans were more negative about the election results 2008, they were consistently more upbeat than Democrats were in 2004 when their candidate, John Kerry, failed to unseat Bush. Forty-four percent of Democrats said they were angry and half said they were depressed in a November 2004 AP-Ipsos poll, double the GOP’s rates this year.
Real American spews:
@ 44 of course. Why would any American be depressed by the end of the tenure off the Worst.President.Ever.
It is always great to be a Republican when the Democratic candidate wins. Although it is even better to be a Democrat winner!
