    Where are all the libs that said we have no voter fraud??
    Madison WI had a participation rate of 119% i.e. voter turnout...

      News sources put the turn out at 65%.

        Thanks Jean, I hadn't seen that. After I saw what you wrote I researched a little... It still looks like fraud.

        By all reports, voter turnout is extremely high in Wisconsin today and Twitter has been abuzz with reports of 119 percent turnout in the liberal stronghold of Madison.

        But that number — which would have meant more voters than people actually registered to vote before Election Day (a possibility due to same day registration) — appears to be off-the-mark.

        According to Madison Clerk Maribeth Witzel-Behl’s office — where the original report is said to have originated — the projected turnout there is on a pace for 96 percent, not 119 percent.

        Still, that's pretty astounding.

        It’s possible it looked like 119 percent at one time; the clerk's office told me that turnout numbers are extrapolated by looking at actual turnout at various intervals during the day. As of 4 .pm. Central, 48 percent of registered voters had actually turned out. The 96 percent figure is calculated by doubling that figure at the close of polls at 8 p.m.

    Another joke of an article by CNN on the front page about Romney. Amazing. The NY Times has another article on how rich Romney is. Even MSDNC was questioning why we are getting articles like this about, but nothing about Kerry when he ran, especially given that KERRY HAS MORE MONEY THAN ROMNEY. You libs and your media is so out of touch you do not have a clue. We are hearing from libs how this last electionin WI is a wake up call – LOL. Guess what, that is exactly what these same people said after the last election when all the dems were voted out... So, did you libs forget to wake up and now you are going to wake up??

      Hey, throbbing member. How is it going? I assume you are senile because I know I told you in the past I am not a repub, but to be honest, it doesn't really matter what you post. It is all about the hate with you. Also, as I have told you in the past – your posts are the best thing on this site for the repubs.
      You libs do not have a clue about what just happened to you and your unions.
