Nice try at an Acorn deflection, (which is all this is).

You don't have a lot of credibility to lend, so I doubt they'll be shedding any tears.

If you even understood the Acorn issue you wouldn't have posted that, but since you're not a much of a reader, it really doesn't matter what you think about this.

And any credibility you have comes from where? You're just a talking head like I am ..... what makes your opinion any better than mine?
It doesn't really matter what you think either ......... I guess we cancel each other out?

If some of you guys actually get you're news from rolling stone you've got problems. What a wonderful indication of the state of voters in general, you might as well get your news from playboy and maxim because that's about how worth while RS is.

As was the fact that precinct demographics provide accurate statistical information. While one cannot tell if any specific black person's vote was counted, it does tell us the overall percentage of black votes not counted. It was enough to change the POTUS results in Florida.

So - if 30% of a precinct is black, and 30% of the votes are "spoiled", that means 100% of the black votes were spoiled?

Somebody needs to go back to statistics.

Agreed. Lets be sure to include Acorn in on this, too.

Except that ACORN hasn't been accused of vote tampering or voter suppression. ACORN is, at worst, being accused of registration fraud. Major, major difference. Vote tampering and voter suppression lead to invalid election results. Registration fraud doesn't have any direct effect on election results. Only if those registered fraudulently attempt to vote (= voter fraud) is there a problem, and there's very little evidence that this occurs.

W. T. F.?

Probably, but you should hold off until you complete Remedial Reading. The only one I see suggesting your mind-numbingly dumb conclusion is you. You might also want to hit a Logic class to learn about straw man arguments.
