Mom Confessions
I saw this posted in another group and sure that this isn't the only place where there was voter fraud, I hope this is investigated, it should be!
ODD? ROMNEY GOT ZERO VOTES IN 59 PRECINCTS IN PHILLY, AND 9 PRECINCTS IN OHIO
Mitt Romney’s demographic troubles have, by this point, been well-rehearsed by practically every pundit across the political spectrum. However, even in his most troubled demographic (black voters, where Romney was trounced 94-6), the GOP nominee could probably comfort himself that at least – contrary to some polls – he didn’t get 0 percent.
But what if there are parts of the country where Romney not only got zero percent of the vote (a possibility in the case of vote totals so small that rounding renders them null), but actually got literally zero votes? For the nominee of a major party, that would be truly extraordinary – so extraordinary, in fact, that it would strain credulity.
And seeing as this highly unlikely turn of events happened not in one or two precincts, but in over 59 in Philadelphia, and 9 in Cleveland, that credulity can be safely said to be completely strained, if not broken. From the Philadelphia Inquirer:
It’s one thing for a Democratic presidential candidate to dominate a Democratic city like Philadelphia, but check out this head-spinning figure: In 59 voting divisions in the city, Mitt Romney received not one vote. Zero. Zilch.
These are the kind of numbers that send Republicans into paroxysms of voter-fraud angst, but such results may not be so startling after all.
“We have always had these dense urban corridors that are extremely Democratic,” said Jonathan Rodden, a political science professor at Stanford University. “It’s kind of an urban fact, and you are looking at the extreme end of it in Philadelphia.”
[...]
Many parts of Philadelphia and other big cities simply lack Republican voters, a fact of campaigning that has been true since Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, Stanford University’s Rodden said.
In 2008, McCain got zero votes in 57 Philadelphia voting divisions. That was a big increase from 2004, when George W. Bush was blanked in just five divisions.
But Larry Sabato isn’t convinced.
“I’d be surprised if there weren’t a handful of precincts that didn’t cast a vote for Romney,” the regular Fox News guest who also heads the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, said.
“Not a single vote for Romney or even an error? That’s worth looking into,” he added.
But the oddity doesn’t end there. Weaselzippers also passes along this map of Ohio’s Cuyahoga County.
Note the pure blue areas, where Obama is supposed to have won this full, every-single-vote sweep. Such a victory isn’t logically impossible, but it’s so thoroughly unlikely that some observers are already raising questions of fraud. At bare minimum, this outcome certainly raises questions about the political makeup of the areas in question.

I've noticed something.... people have issues.. you are in denial. Denial issues...smh. Lol. -
If Obama was a really the man of integrity and honor that so many say he is why hasn't he said anything about this?

What an incredible horrible lie this article is.
I looked at every precinct, all of them. The precincts they are talking about, one of them, ZERO votes were ALSO cast for Obama. Many others are precincts where TWO total votes were cast, or THREE, and 0 for Obama(CORRECTION - should read, '0 for Romney').
And YES, actually, more than one of these precincts has ZERO votes for Obama and ZERO votes for Romney.
Most of these precincts they're talking about, are TINY. There are not more than a couple that actually had more than a couple votes for Obama total. That makes this article so absurd to be downright disgusting. In one of the precincts, there were a couple hundred votes for Obama and none for Romney. But the number of precincts where this actually happened is TINY.
There are places in Cuyahoga county where people were interviewed long before the election - the impression I got was not at all, 'Vote Black' or even, as the article so slyly implies, conspiracy to rig the vote, but actually, 'neither of the candidates make me really happy, but Romney campaign has been a mess and he doesn't seem to have a real plan - I'll have to stick with the incumbent'.
Areas of Cuyahoga county have been hit extremely hard by the housing fallout and things have been very depressed in some precincts for many years due to businesses moving out of the area and jobs drying up. Many people are very downhearted and discouraged. Cuyahoga county has been in financial trouble for a long time. Instead of screaming conspiracies people should be saying what are some good ways to help the area.
Talk about hate-mongering and tinfoil hat conspiracy theories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS article takes the cake! What a bunch of liars!
This article is such a deliberate twisting of the facts that it is absurd.
And I SERIOUSLY doubt ANY other readers will do what I did, actually LOOK at the official results of every single precinct in Cuyahoga county, to see what the TRUTH is behind this ABSURD article.
Good lord, the media has absolutely ZERO ethics any more!

What are your sources for this?

I heard that all states with voter ID laws went for Romney. Cant back it up, but it is curious. I'll post a link if i can find it
found one here i know it is a blog, but anyone could look up the results and compare them to id laws. i just don't have time to do all that
Quoting Anonymous:
Thats what happens when you don't require id.
dead people, animals, registered felons, suddenly they've all voted
Quoting Cbreland07:
Lol love it! I know of several ppl that went to vote and they had apparently already "voted"..
Quoting Anonymous:
I'm sure there were a few dead people and animals that voted this year too, so anything is possible

I keep hearing stuff about some counties having more votes than people etc. I wouldn't be surprised if Obama did cheat the system... *sigh*

There was an article not long ago about how Republicans are typically suspected of voter fraud. I don't buy into conspiracy theories.
