Why did these people not mail in their votes?


The vast majority of voter fraud is through miscounting Absentee ballots, it's probably the best idea not to if you want your vote to count.

So you're saying... we can't trust the system? And yet, here we are :/


Yeah, I mean honestly, Florida's probably gonna recount. The real question is if Obama wins without even needing it.

Pretty much. Older retirees tend to lean Republican, while the non-Cuban minority groups lean mostly Democrat.


Hmmmm, kay. I get minority groups leaning towards the Democrats, not entirely sure why the older generation as a whole would favor the Republicans. (NOT a pro democrat statement, just wondering)

No new taxes! I want the government to keep my hands off my Medicare!

Also those Dems support rights for brown people and the gays, who are obviously a threat to the social fabric of America because

You're living in a fantasy if you think it's viable to close the deficit without tax increases. This sort of uneducated fundamentalism, that tax cuts are bad is what's going to destroy the economy as it gets closer to the fiscal cliff.

The nonpartisan Congressional Research Service published a report showing no correlation between tax cuts and growth. But Republicans made them withdraw the report because it disagree with their political dogma. Here's the report: http://www.dpcc.senate.gov/files/documents/CRSTaxesandtheEconomy Top Rates.pdf

Permanent tax cuts will blow up the deficit, increasing the debt in the long run. And that will be very harmful for the economy in the long run.


I am reasonably sure that was sarcasm. The second paragraph is a rather obvious tell.

There was an 8 hour wait in Pembroke Pines(Broward County) at 6 o'clock.

Why didn't these people vote in advance and use the drop boxes?

Isn't that more a system problem? If they can't handle the number of people voting, seems to be the onous is on those administrating it. There's some serious problems if there are 8 hour waits and people still voting while they're counting

As expected. People are burned out on Obama, but no one is really crazy about Romney. The country is in such a set rut that a lot of people believe that neither candidate will produce meaningful results.


I take it you haven't paid attention to the voter suppression taking place in Florida? Check out the beautiful ballot Floridians were served up. I would wager that to be the longest ballot in modern election history.


Uhm... I'm assuming that most American ballets aren't that complicated? Ours (Canadian) is pretty small, with just a couple checkboxes for the different candidates.

I want an analysis of election prediction methods, rather than Romney's campaign failings.

This complex predictive analysis of the election has determined that Obama got this

Specifically, I want a break-down of xDaunt's predictions, as he's made some fairly confident ones over the course of the thread.

He doesn't need Florida if he gets ohio, then just needs a few more battleground states he's favored in. If he gets florida then Obama just doesn't give a fuck, that's all he needs. Not necessary but would seal the deal immediately.

The only way it comes down to FL is if Romney can pull off an upset in Ohio.

A system where voting is an inconvenience certainly needs to be looked at.
