1. Goddard is no prize!
here in the New Mississippi, Arizona, the repugs are SOOOOOO FAR OUT (as a reflection of the bat-shit crazy white bigots from all over the country that self-selected to retire here for the weather and who vote them into office)...

that the democrats are whimpy, spineless liars like this character and the late, NOT LAMENTED TRAITOR TO US ALL, Janet Napolitano (may she ROAST IN HELL for deserting us!)...

So, Goddard wouldn't be much of an improvement...

This guy would though: http://daveforarizona.org

And one of the VERY FEW Dems with a spine: http://www.johndougherty2010.com/

But Terry, republican-lite Arizona style...

2. He wouldn't be wasting money on a fucking bigot law. He knows how to create jobs! And he is far
more qualified than leatherface. More brains in his shit than she ever thought about having. :hi:

3. You guys vote on scanned ballots, right?
You seriously need the election to be monitored.

4. Nope. Diebold machines...I hear...
Edited on Wed Jul-14-10 12:05 AM by ProudDad
and some scanned ballots I suppose for the early voters...

They limit access to polling places in less republican parts of town (like the one I live in) and so I've only voted by mail...

And we have the election flippers -- folks who rig elections for their corporate capitalist masters...

And assholes like Goddard who WHITEWASH a rigged election that's preparing to fuck up our part of town...

"Remember the hurried press conference by AZ Attorney General Terry Goddard in April of last year? That’s the one where he paraded out all of his assistants and formally declared that after counting the 2006 RTA Ballots, they had found no evidence of foul play for rigging the elections? A few puny voices on the side of the room opposite the mainstream media asked questions. The first, did you count or examine the POLL TAPES in any way? The answer was no. Second, did you do a precinct by precinct audit against the statements of votes cast? No. We would have had to account for one or two adjustments and we don’t know how to do that. Third, did you perform any forensic checks to verify the authenticity of the ballots? The answer? Don’t be silly.

"The poll tapes garnered interest right away from Terry Goddard, because Terry wasn’t going to examine anything until he was informed of the Democratic Party’s plans to look at the poll tapes. Then, like a hawk flying out of the sky after a field mouse, Goddard snatched the ballots from Pima County’s Iron Mountain storage facility. How was the Democratic party informed? Through secondhand chatter from the Democratic Party’s opposing legal team while the ballots were being transferred up to some unknown location in Maricopa County. The recount behind glass would take place one month later."

12. No, but you write as though there is an alternative other than
a write-in. Tell me how you think Terry is going to fuck us over?

18. He buys into the whole corporate capitalist ball of wax
that's killing our planet...

He will be another corporate tool...

He may veto a couple of vanity laws like SB1070 (as Janet used to) but he'll sign anything that helps BIG developers, mining interest, car dealers like Jim PRICK and the other capitalist masters.

Just like Janet did and Bill Clinton did and Barack Obama is doing...

We don't need no more stinkin' corporate anythings but especially two-faced corporate dems...

9. Worked the polls in AZ in 2006 and 2008
Everybody at our polling places used scanned paper ballots. There was a Diebold touchscreen available for anyone who wanted to use it. Not one person cast a ballot on it.

10. Thanks...
I heard that Jan Brewer bought a butt load of Diebold machines but, as I said above, I've only voted by mail here...

The vote flipping occurred at the County Offices...not the polling places.

19. I'm in Pima County
Edited on Wed Jul-14-10 12:45 AM by ProudDad
Tucson...

Allegedly "liberal" democrat country. Some are...some aren't...most are in the paws of the big developers and rich movers and shakers in the small town of 1,000,000 people...

MUCHO better than Maricopa -- I wouldn't be caught dead in Maricopa!!

I know Bill Risner and many of the others who are trying to get to the bottom on the RTA rigged election rip-off...


On edit:

It's always so refreshing to see your handle in the Fidel and Hugo threads! :hi:

11. Do you beleive that most of the sheeple here actually like 1070?
How do you think Joe Arpaio keeps getting re-elected? They sent John Kyl to the Senate and McSame is too moderate for their liking. Oh, I could go on all night about how backward this place is.

Goddard's election is far from certain.

14. Exit polls or parallel elections. These pukes will do anything, anything.
We already know they will. It's almost as easy to rig scanned ballots as touchscreens.

And easier to tie up heavily brown precincts with challenges. I hate these mofos. :grr:

17. Who knows if it can be stopped but maybe it can be slowed down
if there some kind of poll minding effort and exit polls at vulnerable precincts? Nobody probably has time or $ to do it but that's what it would take.

:mad:
