On Election Night, Be Wary of Early Exit Polls Showing Obama Up

Reader Comments

Back to blog

Acorn has submitted a huge number of fraudlent registrations all over the country. They are being investigated, what's worse this orginization started running ad's to support Obama.

To top it all off, the Democrats tried to send Billions of dollars to this organization through the bailout bill. No conflict of interest in this movement is there?

I think Homer Simpson saw what happens to those who vote Democratic this week in the opening moment of the show.

I remember the hanging chads in Florida and how quick Gore started throwing lawsuits around. Funny thing, no matter how many times Floridas votes were counted Bush always came out on top.

Democrats are always trying to steal elections through voter fraud and this year will be no different. Why do you think the obama campaign donated $800,000 to Acorn?

With all of the right-wingers out there spouting off about ACORN-I would love to know:

Do most of you know what ACORN stands for?

Do you know what the ACTUALLY do?

Do you know any numbers about this supposed voter fraud?

Now, of course, I'm sure there are crooked people volunteering for ACORN, just like there are crooked people volunteering for the GOP-every group has their bad apples.

However, perhaps you should look at the FACTS of something before regurgitating what a candidate or a party has spoon fed you.

If I had $800,000 dollars to spend, I think spending it on encouraging voter registration would be a worthwhile cause.

About Acorn. Voter registration fraud is not vote fraud. Only one person can show up to vote, Mike. Micky Mouse cant show up to vote. The real vote fraud is the rovian tactics exhibited by bush et al, including McCain-Palin. And I agree with you Dawn, if it happens again, I will be out on the streets this time, even if I have to fly to Florida or Ohio or Pennsylvania. Not this time.
