1. perhaps New Hampshire was Diebolded......... |
|
It's the only state where ALL of the polls were wrong.... not a single one was even in the ballpark.
In other states, there have been an outlier or two that were wrong, but at least ONE called it right. NH was the only state that NOBODY got right.
That's pretty suspicious..
A possible theory is that NH was diebolded to try to salvage Clinton's campaign. She won by 5% in districts that used blackbox voting... Obama won by 3% in districts that had paper trails.

4. Stop it. Just stop it. |

Diebold had nothing to do with the NH results. Hillary won, largely because Obama's state director (Matt Rodriguez) and state chair (Jim Demers) made some stupid strategic decisions, e.g., devoting very little candidate time and field resources to the suburban commuter towns in southern Rockingham and Hillsborough Counties.
The discrepancy between scanner and hand count towns has to do with political demographics. The towns that still use hand counts are clustered in Grafton, Cheshire, and Carroll Counties. The Democrats in these towns tend to be highly educated, liberal, and upper income. These towns have more in common with Vermont than with Manchester or Nashua. Bill Bradley clobbered Gore in these places, and Howard Dean beat Kerry in most of them as well.

7. This Obama supporter agrees with you. |
|
I don't think NH was stolen. I do think many IND voters said "Obama has it locked up and I can't stand Romney so I voted for McCain." I believe HRC won it fair and square.

6. Can't be cocky at all, he's barely got a lead in some polls and trails in other. |

I am going to assume the worst-case scenario, in both TX and OH.
