Have the naysayers of election theft at DU...

commented on the over vote for rethug majority leader yesterday? Did the news discuss who would have won from over vote or by how many votes they were over? Is this not clear evidence that these fuckers should NOT be trusted?

1. Got a link or source of some kind?

Who should have really won, if this allegation is true?

3. There was not an overvote - there was one vote per person, they just

forgot that the guy from Puerto Rico was allowed to vote - so they had 131 present including that guy and they had 131 votes.

So they were being exclusionary assholes - but no one cast any extra votes.

Our democracy *does* depend on getting the word out about rampant election fraud in the states - this story does not relate.

4. Oh...I was wondering why it was so hard to find a link to verify...

they way I saw it portrayed from CNN, it appeared that there were too many "votes" so they had to do it again. I use the word "votes" because the reporter used that plural as well. Thanks for correcting me, though I should mention that these bastards should still not be trusted.
