Reply #7: These areas are easy to manipulate and easy to steal [View All]

Note the quote from the Warren County official in Ohio. That's the county that had the illegal lock-out while votes were counted.

Many of these counties have electronic voting. Did Bush really win big there, or were the machines programmed to say Bush won big?

The other issue is voter manipulation. The people who live in these areas (and I live in one) tend to have young families. They tend to be white-collar workers with predictable - and extremely busy - lifestyles. They go to the gym. They belong to a church. They spend a lot of time on the sidelines of Little League games. Rove figured out how to target this demographic, by using church mailing lists, faux-news videos in gyms, propaganda at the Little League meetings.

This demographic is poorly informed, I've found. They catch snippets of news. They are greatly influenced by what their pastor says.
