There are even major irregularities in Wyoming!

Meanwhile, back in Wyoming, voter turnout was an astounding 106%. According to the Secretary of State’s Website, there were 245,789 ballots cast in Wyoming in the 2004 election. The trouble with that is that the State of Wyoming only has 232,396 registered voters. That’s a difference of over 13,000 votes, which means 106% of registered voters turned out on election day in Wyoming.

or used oiuje boards?

Could they?

in order to vote there.

Hi all,

Wouldn't that be just like them to play with states we think are too red to be worth it. Now we know were more of the popular vote margin came from (or disappeared to).

Great find! :)

Warmly,

George

were in Republican counties. It's a pattern with them. So while Gore was deciding which Democratic counties to ask for a recount in, the real goldmines were located in the Republican counties. Just something to think about.

Man Date by padding the votes where ever he could.

What a surprise

noticed too that the abacus went all screwey starting in 2000.

Now why are millions more eyebrows not raised a few stories higher over this? good grief.

Too cute.

and nobody is perfect................

And he gave his "smarter-than-thou" smile and went on his way.

(Yes, this is an actual quote, when someone asked Cheney if he were worried about the size of crowds coming out to see Kerry.)

he takes personal pride in making sure the west went for Bush.

I had to look it up to believe it.

save it to your harddrive. Please! Once they realize that some people are looking -- and talking -- they might find a need to make appropriate "corrections."

and they had more voters than registered too but now it all matches up nicely and I did save the screens as you suggested, I still have them.

Is no one reporting any of this locally?

Keith Olbermann.

Send this to Olbermann right away!

It is absurd to think that turnout could be anything near 100% anywhere. There had to be at least a few people who were in comas, got drunk and passed out or were otherwise indisposed on election day. I am relatively sure there are dead people on the voting rolls in Wyoming as there are everywhere else. At least the people whose obituaries were in the paper didn't vote on election day.

Can people in Wyoming register to vote on election day?

State, county officials work to curb voter fraud

Published in the Wyoming Tribune-Eagle

CHEYENNE - With so much attention on today's presidential election and on local races, assuring a fair vote is important for Laramie County Clerk Debbye Lathrop.
"Since Florida in 2000, there is a heightened awareness of the bad things that can happen in the election process," Lathrop said Monday. "Unfortunately, that's what many seem to have focused on. They haven't looked at the safeguards that have been put in place."

Wyoming's small population, especially in rural areas, makes voter fraud easier to detect, Meyer said.
"It's pretty hard to pull a large fraud off," he said. "Most are caught by the county clerks pretty easily."
In addition, the fact that Wyoming has the largest projected margin in favor of Bush and Cheney makes the state a less attractive target for voter fraud, he said.
While striving to prevent voter fraud, county clerks also work hard to make sure everyone gets a chance to vote.
Wyoming is one of few states that allow voter registration at the polls.

This year, Lathrop said laptop computers are available at the seven precincts in Laramie County where the greatest population growth has occurred. County employees who are deputized to act as election officials will use them to enter new voter registration information directly into the county's data system.

"It's going to save my staff a tremendous amount of time," she said.

In the past, that information always has been entered on paper and transferred to the computer system after the election.

Register at the polls
Wyoming law allows residents to register to vote at polling places on Election Day. Anyone who plans to register at their precincts today must bring a photo ID, preferably a Wyoming driver's license.

Voter registration in Wyoming closed October 4th, but apparently they allow registration on election day.

he would have all his people well established there.

In Wyoming you are allowed to register up to and including election day. The stats given were from Oct 22nd. There were another 11 days to register to vote that are not tallied on the list from the Wyoming SOS. It's not unreasonable to assume that 13,000 people registered after Oct 22.

My $0.02

And also that another previously unregistered 13,000 showed up as well on election day. Pretty impressive. It's a simple explanation, but not credible.

JAY-SUS himself maketh every voter go-eth to the polls to vote for his voice on earth.
Yay, can you sayeth it is DE-VINE?
I kneweth that you couldeth.:hurts:

In Wyoming???? Either you don't live there or you're really reaching to defend your home state. Do you have any idea how hard it is to get 13,000 people to register to vote?

as the previous poster said, the stats provided for the registrations was from 10/22, and Wyoming allows registration at the polls. Before you cry "MAJOR" irregularities, get some more facts man. Someone who thinks this really matters at this point should go out and find out what the total number of registered voters was on 11/3, after the election.

Here is a start. There were 4 counties that had votes over 110% of registrations:

Campbell 114%
Albany 113%
Lincoln 110%
Natrona 110%

Perhaps someone would like to contact one of them and ask them to explain how many new regs they got, or why they had such a big difference.

If they rigged Wyoming for Bush, why not South Dakota (or is it north?) to get rid of Tom Daschl? The Dem's majority leader lost in a close race. Were there unbelievably high turnouts there, too?

As part of my series "50 States Mislead Their Voters" at http://whyareweback.blogspot.com (and http://watchingthewatchers.org which broke the Wyoming story is working with me on this).

One thing that's unusual...is that John Thune (who supposedly beat Daschle) screamed bloody murder about voter fraud in 2002 the last time he ran for senator...and his brother, Jeff, got into trouble this election by lying to a reporter that he was a notary public who witnessed absentee ballots being distributed. Also a bunch of notary publics were arrested and charged with not watching people sign documents.

There's also reports that voters from indian reservations were not allowed to vote if they didn't have picture id...even though the HAVA act allows provisional ballot voting.

Another thing I noticed is that there are 3,000 more votes for the senate race than the presidential...which is odd. But either I or Watching the watchers will get to it soon. Right now my focus is on New Mexico...and Anthony's about to do Wisconsin with Florida right after.

The total votes in the South Dakota races for Pres, Senate and House look odd:

President: 388,215
Senate: 391, 188 ....... 2,978 more than for President
House: 389,468 ....... 1,902 more than for President

Is it really possible that nearly 3,000 people showed up to vote, cast a vote for Senate, but didn't bother to vote for President at the same time on the same ballot?

I have yet to see the numbers for Senate exceed President in any other state - and I've checked about 2 dozen other states so far. I just don't buy this, and really think something's up.

Numbers are the "Official Returns" from http://www.sdsos.gov/Elections/. Full breakdown by county posted at http://www.geocities.com/truthnow2004/South_Dakota.htm.

That sounds fishy to me.

I believe that Castor recieved 10,000 more votes in Florida than Kerry did, even though Smelly Martinez(Rep Senator)recieved something like 14,000 votes less than Bushie.

Keep in mind that this was the biggest turn out ever, and this is the same Florida from the 2000 debacle and we are Mad as Hell down here,

How could this happen.

So I wonder in how many states we will see the Dem Senator getting more votes than the Dem Presidential Can. and then in the same states the Rep Senator having the traditional trend of having less votes than the Rep Presidential Can. ????

I am sad becasue Florida will not have a recount :(

Even my own county of Pasco does not add up with Senatorial votes vs the presidential votes, Pasco even stalled Bev from BBV with their FOIA requests.

I feel that this is slipping away.

Where are Kerry's Lawyers in Florida???

not just the individual parties. In other words, 2,978 more people voted in the senatorial race, regardless of party, and didn't vote for president at all. THAT'S just plain fishy and doesn't hold up, IMO.

In SD, it was expected to go red for President, but hoping to go blue for Senate (Daschle), so comparing party percentages probably wouldn't work for this state.

Depending on the demographics of the state and candidates in question, it's possible to vote for different parties in different races. Maybe a breakdown by county for Senate in Florida would give a clearer picture of what happened to Castor and where ...

But I don't know where to find that. It doesn't sound at all likely that 100% turned out plus an extra 6%. And no paper trail.

the most overwhelming victory in any state, percentage wise. I'm telling you, they had to get those votes from a lot of states to get the popular vote, and giving yourself a few thousand more here and there adds up. And not much suspicion when you have a state that overwhelmingly votes republican anyway.
