Stolen 'election' 2008 is on the way.

Election Day Could Be a Mess 18 Sep 2008 Faced with a surge in voter registrations leading up to Nov. 4, election officials across the country are bracing for long lines, equipment failures and confusion over polling procedures that could cost thousands the chance to cast a ballot. (I already call bullsh*t. The PentaPost is complicit in paving the way for stolen 'election' 2008. Heads up! We're not putting up with a psychotic, dangerous, delusional predator (John McCain) and the bimbo he wants-to-screw-but-can't-so-he-made-her-his-VP (Sarah Palin). We're not tolerating a *third* GOP coup d'etat. --LRP)

5. Vote in advance!

I have a friend who works as an election person, and has for several years now.

Recently she forwarded me an email from the election commissioner (or whatever the job title is) in Johnson county, Kansas. In it, advance balloting was strongly encouraged because of anticipated heavy turnout and long lines.
