9. If they did indeed come out in droves and it is a big if,
they most certainly DID have enough voting machines.

3. Actually, Fundies do look different at lot of the time.
I am a pollworker and after all these years I can tell at least 80-85% of the time what the voter's party is before they sign in.

Fundies have a certain "scrubbed" look to them, republican hair (parted on the side if a man a la Rick Santorum, coiffed and puffed just right if a woman). They are often seen clutching a "voters guide" from some Fundie org, and if of the right age they have bratty kids in tow. There is often the tell-tale sign of flag pins, cross pins, and occasionally over the top red-white-and-blue attire.

O yes, one woman who votes at my poll carries a plastic fetus on her keychain.

DEAD giveaway.

:evilgrin:

Dems and Greens (and Indys) USUALLY look like somebody I'd like to spend some time actually getting to know myself as a friend.

4. Don't forget "god hair" and skirts below the knees
God hair is a bun, but over not behind the ears. There casual wear is skirts that are rather long. Especially denim skirts because after all it is their idea of casual wear.

5. any long lines in areas known to be heavily:
white rural areas,
small southern towns,
Southern Baptist ,
Evangelical..
toney republican boroughs like Highland Park +University Park in Dallas


it isn't tough to figure out any more than it is tough to find the Demo/Liberal/Lefty voters.






a fetus keychain? Oh lawsy...where can I get one!

7. Just as important to note...Where the hell were they yesterday?
One would think they'd want to revel in their fraudulent victory! Those dedicated shrub voters were nowhere to be seen! He received the most votes in history, right? So, where were they? LMAO! Peace!

8. This is pretty much more astute than most of what the "big name" du'ers...
have written...

So succint and makes so much sense.

Brilliant.

10. Does anyone have any reliable data on the % turnout in rural districts?
Edited on Fri Jan-21-05 05:41 PM by spooked911
Was it increased over 2000? Becuase overall rural areas were massively pro-Bush.

11. Irrelevant
The regime claims that THEIR "GAINS" came largely FROM BIG CITIES, DEMOCRATIC STRONGHOLDS!

Rove himself killed "the rural voter" fairy tale almost immediately.
