Ohio poll worker may have voted 6 times for Obama!

For example, in Cleveland's Fifth Ward, Mr. Obama won districts E, F, and G 1,337 to Mitt Romney's... 0. And in case you're wondering, Gary Johnson received more votes than Mr. Romney. Well, maybe that's just a fluke. In the Ninth Ward, Mr. Obama won districts D-G with a paltry total of 1,740 to... 3. Hey, at least Romney got .2% of the vote!

Okay, what if we look at an entire Ward? No way this trend continues, right? An entire ward. Why not do the First Ward? Obama won that one 12,857 to... 94. This time Romney got .7% of the vote. He's moving up in the world!

In total, there are 21 districts in Cleveland where Mr. Romney received precisely 0 votes. In 23 districts, he received precisely 1 vote. And naturally, in one of the districts where Obama won 100% of the vote, there was 100% turnout. What a coincidence!

By the way, in case you are thinking that Romney did so poorly because maybe those districts were not very populated: Nope. In those 44 districts, Mr. Obama won 14,686 to 23. That's .16% of the vote for Romney. But Ohio's not important in the electoral college, right?

Update: Mr. Obama won in St. Lucie County, Florida, which had over 140% voter turnout.

Yes, Obama won a lot of Cleveland precincts by huge amounts where Romney few or no votes. That is not statistically impossible.
As far as turnout:
In the Cleveland area, the precincts that Obama carried had a lower turnout than the precincts that Romney carried.
The claim about 140 percent turnout in St. Lucie is false, no matter how many times conservatives keep repeating it.

We'll see, won't we?

You don't exist to Gray. He knows not your request. And you're not even God.

I would give her the death penalty, but that would not stop her from voting again...at least someone else in her name.

Filtering is a puerile tactic that provides seemingly legitimate but self delusional excuses to people - like Gray - who want to avoid answering questions they don't want to answer. This is not the first time he has ducked a question. Probably won't be the last.



If people don't want to honestly and fully engage in a discussion with other contributors on a given thread, why do they bother to post?

lacuna, I filter some of the posters here, like river, not because I don't want to answer a question, from time to time, but rather in support of End Ankle Biting Now Awareness Month.

Science has shown that conservatives have less developed reasoning centers than liberals.

Anything that challenges their inculcated beliefs might result in cognitive dissonance.

Can't have that.

100% voter participation? Take off the blinders

You're still claiming that there was 100 percent turnout in Obama's key precincts in Cleveland?
