Republican Dirty Politics in WI - CBS News

"As has been reported in the media and throughout social networks, there are groups spreading false information about today's recall elections," the letter reads. "Notably, two blatantly false tactics have been employed by groups or individuals that seemingly would support Governor Walker's campaign."

Taylor wrote that one group or individual is informing citizens "that they need not vote today as they have already accomplished their work." She also cites a group or individual calling from a telephone number with a Wisconsin area code that has "indicated to citizens that the recall election is on Wednesday." It is unclear whether that is the same call

"Both of these assertions are blatantly false and constitute the commission of an election-related crime," Taylor wrote." 

The Walker campaign on Tuesday denied accusations that it was behind any misleading robocalls, although it did not dispute their existence.

Who would believe that if you are living in Wisconsin. We have been bombarded for months. Anyone fallinig for something like that must be living under a rock.

Was thinking the same thing. If you dont know - voting is today, you have no brain to begin with!

for anyone or any group to do something like that from either party. There are people on both sides of the aisle who have tried to pull some pretty slick things when it comes to politics. Although...I do have to say that you'd have to be pretty gullible or daft to fall for what the OP is claiming happened.

That is what I was thinking - Trigger Happy

Heck...I live in Indiana and I knew Wisconsin's recall election was today.

I knew they were going to cry foul before the election even began - It was a given - sm

That's usually what happens. Before people even have a chance to vote the democrats always have fraud, foul play, cheating, dirty politics or whatever prepared to go.

Unless they have hard solid evidence there is voter fraud or foul play there is nothing that can be done. I saw that happen also in dem versus dem election. More people voted for Hillary in certain districts, but somehow all those electronic ballots when to Obama.

If they want to believe there was wrong doing nothing will stop them. I'm not from Scott Walkers state and don't know anything about him whether it is good or bad, but I did see a lot of support for him from voters. More than I did for the other guy.

Sometimes politicians just need to sit back and say the voters voted and we need to bow out graciously and keep working the best we can for the people.

didn't 3 different republican candidates win Iowa? That is just one state that made no sense. Ha! By the way oxymoron is not name calling.

How does an Obama/Hillary snipe post relate to Wisconsin? I guess the connection level was too high for the average Conservative reader. My error.
Before you were so eager to insult - you should have read my message - sm
[ In Reply To ..]
and tried to comprehend it.

If you are trying to insult, it failed. No republican here. No democrat either. I actually used be both depending on what the candidate stood for and if I agreed with them.

Here is how Hillary/Obama's reference relates.

I wrote - Unless they have hard solid evidence there is voter fraud or foul play there is nothing that can be done. I saw that happen also in dem versus dem election. More people voted for Hillary in certain districts, but somehow all those electronic ballots when to Obama.

I was referring to voter fraud. The votes that went for Hillary actually ended up in Obama. There was voter fraud in many of the counties. I actually voted for Obama so I didn't care. Didn't want Hillary in there, however, the fact of the matter is there was fraud. That is the connection.

I guess talking about voter fraud happening even within the democrat party is too high for the average liberal to comprehend. My error.
If you had read my messge - sm

How do 3 candidates win one state? Just one example. Not worth dredging up all the others in the Key Stone Cop Republican primary.

Oh please. Legendary GOP suppression legislation popping up - all over. FL Justice Dept probe....

Focks incessant whining for days on end about their phoney voter fraud hype. Try applying your own words to these scenarios, then put on your thinking cap (that is, if you can find it) and GET REAL:

"Unless they have hard solid evidence there is voter fraud or foul play there is nothing that can be done"....unless you're in the GOP. When was the last time you saw a democrat try to sponsor a voter suppression bill, huh? The idea that you think you can float this attempt to deny these GOP suppression tactics is an insult to every single voters' intelligence across the country. They're onto you.

BTW, without a solid verifiable source citation on that dem-on-dem spew, it's just one more in a long line of GOP gas bubbles.

Only suppression I ever saw was the Black Panthers - with sticks intimidating Republicans.nm

Willful ignorance will never be an effective campaign strategy. Besides, one would think the party that promotes open carry, packing weapons within the chambers of Congress and shoot-now-ask-questions-later stand your ground laws would have no problem with the NBP brandishing a harmless litte ole billy club. Oh, silly me. It doesn't have a trigger or chamber full of bullets. What was I thinking?

Google ALEC-sponsored voter supression and start sifting through those 1,580,000 hits, then get back with us. K?

Guess there is fraud all over the place. I thought you could only vote in the state you lived in. Didn't know everyone from out of state could vote to try and throw the election.

Michigan democrats unions had 4 greyhound buses filled to capacity with Michigan democrats with the intention of voting for Barrett.

If anything, they are trying to help eligible voters register and get to the polls and make sure there is no Conservative vote suppression. That faux news channel sure has some way-out there fiction writers.

Wrong - did you read the article? Democrats from Michigan said - "We are going to vote"

[ In Reply To ..]
Caller Mike:

We're going to Wisconsin. We're from Michigan. Right outside Detroit and... they got four buses up here, Chris. I dont know if they got other buses coming from other directions but it's four buses and we're going to Wisconsin to vote.

Caller Mike:

Most of them are Democrat..it's a Democratic union..its actually a Democratic union organized by Democrats. But I'm not goin on there to vote for the Democrat. I'm going on there to vote for Scott Walker. Once I heard about it I- I was thinking, hey..this is an opportunity to sabotage what they always do to Republicans.

They are certainly not there to make sure there is no conservative voter suppression. They are there (per their own words) to vote for the democrat to throw the election.

Get informed people. Just cos you hate conservative is no excuse to approve of voter fraud as long as it's for a democrat.
What is the capacity of a greyhound bus anyway? - Ha Ha--Fox!

Fox doesn't bother to interview a single one of them to let them speak for themselves....and you expect us to actually believe this so-called "eyewitness"? Oh, brother. My guess is they are get-the-vote-out dems. And let's drop this out-of-state charade, shall we? More than half of Walker's bucks came from out of state billionaires, so it seems perfectly acceptable to me that MI democrats trying to help people get to the polls are riding the Greyhound.
oooohhh hit a sore spot, didn't I. - Walker won - woo hoo
[ In Reply To ..]
The attempts once again by the democrats to commit fraud when it came to voting failed. Oooh...that's gotta hurt. And let's drop this little democrats never cheat charade, shall we?

I particularly don't care where Walker's bucks came from. Besides we all know where Obama's bucks come from (and it ain't little ol granny sending in $2.00).

So you think it's perfectly acceptable for another states (MI) democrats to pile in and vote to throw the election...nice (not). Do you even understand how wrong that is? Wait, never mind. Don't answer that (eyes rolling).

Bringing the message up from above - There is always fraud, on BOTH sides, so - there are no angels here - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
Since she said there is always fraud on both sides, I felt it important to post this on the opposing side too. Since it was said, it's only fair to repeat it for both sides.
