http://www.politicususa.com/2014/11/04/record-early-voter-turnout-iowa-good-news-democrat-bruce-braley.html"On Tuesday, the Iowa Secretary of State reported that they had received over 455,000 absentee ballots for this election through Monday. That represents the strongest early voter turnout in a midterm election in Iowa history. There were over 530,000 absentee ballots that were requested. It is quite possible that many of those who had not returned their ballots through Monday would be dropping off their votes on Election Day or had already mailed them off prior to the postmark deadline of November 3rd."

She is in the same camp as the "Sovereign Citizens". I must tell you I am greatly disturbed that she could be a United States Senator.

Hard to say which is worst.

It gave me hope for Braley. If you're in Iowa and you're reading this; try and round up some Dems to take to the polls with you. Joni Ernst is beyond vile and must be stopped and your votes can make that happen!

However last I saw it looked like the crazy woman had a big lead. What's wrong with these people?
I just got the old mini series "Holocaust" and have been watching it. It dawned on me that I now wonder less how this could happen considering some of the vile hate fillled things the far right now spews.
