post 28


A state representative has been asking the Milwaukee Election Commission for information on the number of votes cast by voters who voted and registered on the same day (Wisconsin Law allows voters to register at the polls the day of the election). By law all same day registers are to be validated by mail immediately after the election (Their votes get counted regardless of their status).

Rep. Stone finally received an answer Monday of week. He was told that there were 8,300 same day votes and approximately 900 were unable to be delivered. Assuming about one third of the same day votes will not be verified because there is no such address, etc., that would mean approximately 2400 illegal votes were cast. Sounds bad! Well.....

Rep. Stone today received a call from the Election Commission. They were a little bit off. They actually had 73,000 same day votes cast. 10,000 voter registration cards could not be sent because they have no addresses or incomplete or inadequate information. Using the same one third return rate that means in Milwaukee alone more than 25,000 illegal votes were cast. You can expect that the cities of Racine, Kenosha and Madison to have similar results.

By the way George Bush lost Wisconsin by 12,000 votes and Milwaukee votes 80% or more Democrat.



See post 24 in the original thread for an explanation.

7. But the blog is interesting
The author states:

<http://mytwocommoncents.blogspot.com/2005/01/did-bush-win-wisconsin.html>

-snip-

"In 2000 Al Gore won Milwaukee by 22 points. Kerry won by 35! That contradicts a lot of trends -- even Wisconsin ones.

-snip-


But he is referring to this article which also happens to state:

<http://www.jsonline.com/news/nat/nov04/271920.asp>

-snip-

Elsewhere in the state, Bush also appeared to be outperforming his 2000 numbers in much of the Fox Valley.

In 2000, Bush won Fond du Lac County by 18 points; this time, he won it by 27 points.

-snip-

8. That is interesting.
I think we need a nation wide analysis done. The only explanation I can think of is that Milwaukee is heavily african american. The increase in voter turn out would really jack up the democratic vote....I have no idea if this actually explains anything.

10. I agree. And "exurban" population could have upped it for *
Weighting for population density tells us a bit too perhaps and make this all potentially legit.

11. don't you guys recognize a counter measure...
Something moderately large is going to hit them (regarding election fraud) within the next couple of weeks. Don't ask me for insider knowledge - I have none... it's just that I'm all too familiar with the cycle. This is really getting old.
