Lets hope no accusations of cheating this time

It was embarrassing when the accusations of cheating came after New Hampshire. I was pleased to see many Obama supporters did not agree with the small number of tinfoilers who raised this issue.

Lets hope that yes, just because Hillary won again, fair and square, people don't resort to ludicrous conspiracy theories to explain it because they are unable to give credit to Hillary.

anyone know?

Since everyone knows how everyone else voted.

They didn't even get a chance. That concerns me. A lot, as it should everyone.

The Clinton's themselves raised the issue of voter intimidation and I think it was valid.Just saying!

:eyes:

The casino sites were very close. There were a lot of Clinton supporters at those sites.

I also don't agree that asking for a recount when new technologies are introduced and some results don't add up is accusing anyone of cheating. It's entirely possible that recounting in NH widens Hillary's lead. In any case the initial recounts showed a puzzling change in numbers - if it is machines recounting the same documents over why would there be any changes?

I also hope that Edwards supporters will not do what Hillary did after Iowa and make negative comments abuot the process after the loss. Congratulations to Obama on moving 20 points. Congratulations to Hillary on hanging on to a lead.

the blogosphere is already rumbling...

I'm not suggesting there was any funny business, but somebody somewhere has to collect and tabulate the totals from each precinct, apply a distribution formula, and apportion delegates, just like in Iowa. And I imagine the vendor or whoever did that was chosen by Reid or somebody else in the Nevada Dem party which was widely reported as supporting Hilly.

:shrug:

The numbers are announced. They can check to see if they match what's reported to Carson City. There's no way to cheat the tabulation of caucus numbers.

Where all the Clinton supporters at the strip came from is another story.

Hadn't heard about this yet.

I don't understand. They announce the numbers as they're counting. People know what the numbers are. I'm sure people go back and compare their caucus numbers to what is reported for the official tally.

Your question didn't make any sense to me. They announce the numbers out loud so who tabulates doesn't matter. I don't get your point.

ELKO, Nev. - Hillary Rodham Clinton spent her final day of campaigning in Nevada launching blistering attacks on Barack Obama, culminating in a charge that his most powerful union backer is intimidating members who support her.

Speaking to supporters in this mile-high mining town, Clinton accused Obama's organizers from the 60,000-member Culinary Workers Union Local 226 of seeking to keep those in the union who support her from participating in Saturday's caucuses.

"We know there are some unions in the South who are telling people who to caucus for and if they're not going to caucus for who they choose, don't come at all," said Clinton, who offered no direct evidence. She cited press accounts, a phone-in caller to a local radio show, blogs and "anecdotes" from her campaign workers.
