I am watching this link - and I saw Obama's total votes just drop from
442,000 (and some) to 441,000.
How could this be?

8. I just caught Wasserman on an election fraud documentary.
He said he's clocked about 50 different ways elections are stolen.

I myself will never underestimate the stupidity of our cable outlets but there are plenty of other choices. Faith based election R Us.

9. Someone tried to explain it...
to me after the last election. Has something to do with batches of information coming in from all over the place, and what happens when it's updated.

15. the person typing in the info made a typo and then corrected it. Not everything is a conspiracy.
