Florida Democrats: Early voting extended in 1 county Dems are pathetic!!!!

[garyo]

This is a prime example of the cowardice of the Democratic losers who will do anything to manipulate this election. They found a whiny ass liberal judge to hear their bullshit, theses idiots think owebumbles is the pied piper leading them to the promised land and instead he's leading them to the city dump where they will happily feast.

A Florida judge has ordered an early voting site in Orange County to be opened for four hours on Sunday afternoon, following lawsuits filed by the state Democratic party

The Florida Democratic Party filed lawsuits seeking to get four counties to offer more time for voting before Election Day.
The lawsuit filed in Orange County asked for additional time because an early voting site in that county – in Winter Park -- was shut down for several hours while authorities investigated a suspicious package.
The party has a separate federal lawsuit seeking more early voting time in Palm Beach, Miami-Dade and Broward counties. Those counties were dealing with waits of up to six hours on Saturday, the last scheduled day of early voting.
Gov. Rick Scott, a Republican, refused requests this week from Democrats to extend early voting.

Winter park is majority black thus the Dems would want to do this. It's also a high crime area; funny that eh

We need to keep kissing these poor disenfranchised people's ass until they control us.

NAACP Takes Over Houston Polling Station, Advocates for President Obama

HOUSTON, TX - Friday afternoon ... [a]ccording to Eve Rockford, a poll watcher trained by voter integrity group True the Vote, three NAACP members showed up to the 139 precinct location with 50 cases of bottled water and began handing bottles out to people standing in line. While wearing NAACP labeled clothing, members were "stirring the crowd" and talking to voters about flying to Ohio to promote President Barack Obama.

"I went to the polling supervisor ... She ignored me. I repeated my statement. She told me that she would handle it. She did nothing. I then went to the assistant supervisor and he stood up, walked over to another table and then sat down. [T]he NAACP members started handpicking and moving people to the front of a long voting line inside the polling place according to the incident report. After multiple complaints from voters about the line cutting, Rockford received a phone call from downtown telling her to “stand down.”

At this point, NAACP members were instructed to turn their clothing inside out, which they refused to do and said they weren’t going to stop their actions inside the polling place. Their behavior and actions to move people to the front of the line continued for the rest of the evening. Texas State Representative Sylvester Turner, a former Texas NAACP leader, was also seen outside the building talking with voters. “The NAACP basically ran this poll location and the judges did nothing about it,” Rockford said.

So making sure everyone gets the right to exercise their vote is a bad thing? Only a Republican would think this way.

Maybe we should just go back to only letting white men vote. Would that make you Republicans happy?

Why not state wide. Notice only dumb democrats need more time. The same people that did not know how to vote in 2000

Maybe we should do like Houston and let the the democrat NAACP break laws and control voting places

[JerryAL]

Maybe Republican state legislatures and governors from all around this country should stop trying to prevent legally registered voters from voting.

Maybe voting should be made easier NOT harder.

Maybe people like the late Republican Paul Weyrich should quit trying to suppress the vote every election cycle:

"I don't want everybody to vote. Elections are not won
by a majority of the people. They never have been from
the beginning of our country and they are not now. As
a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections quite
candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down."

- Paul Weyrich, Co-Founder of The Heritage Foundation,

When you have to rely on voter suppression tactics to win elections, then it is time to rethink your political platform and views.

[JerryAL]

Because the Republican Governor Rick Scott, a.k.a. Mr. Voter Suppression, has reduced the number of early voting days from 14 to 8. Gee, I wonder why.

It is ridiculous, that in 2012, people have to wait in line for hours to vote. Voting should be made easier and more accessible, not harder.

Florida, 12 years after their 2000 debacle, is still the laughing stock of the nation when it comes to voting.

That is crap since the GOP agreed with the judge and did not contest it. It is democrats illegally taking over the polling places like the NAACP in Houston

Why is it that the dead always vote democrat?

[JerryAL]

Why is it that the dead always vote democrat?

What is this bizarre obsession Republicans seem to have with "dead voters." I always love how you guys mention it, but you have absolutely no evidence to back up your claims. :rollseyes:

Please show us all the proof that thousands of dead people are voting and swinging elections!

Oh please, Rick Scott has been trying to make voting harder in Florida ever since he took office.

You mean he is trying to stop voter fraud. The GOP had no problem with the judges ruling

In 1997, Rick Scott was implicated in the biggest Medicare fraud case in US history, stepping down as CEO of Columbia/HCA after the hospital giant was fined $1.7 billion and found guilty of swindling the government.

So yes, Rick Scott knows all about fraud.

seeing as you know so much about it. What did Rick Scott do?

[JerryAL]

seeing as you know so much about it. What did Rick Scott do?

In December 2000, the U.S. Justice Department announced what it called the largest government fraud settlement in U.S. history when Columbia/HCA agreed to pay $840 million in criminal fines and civil damages and penalties. Among the revelations from the 2000 settlement, which all apply to when Scott was CEO, were that Columbia overbilled Medicare for unnecessary tests and false diagnosis codes.

The government settled a second series of similar claims with Columbia/HCA in 2002 for an additional $881 million. The total fine: $1.7 billion.

As part of the 2000 settlement, Columbia/HCA agreed to plead guilty to at least 14 corporate felonies. A corporate felony comes with financial penalties but not jail time, since a corporation can’t be sent to prison.

So does Obama. As a community organizer he lived in Hyde park. As a lawyer he represented a slum lord
