Breaking: Hogan ahead

[Mr H]

Wife is currently on the phone reporting Brownstain signs at a polling place at 8AM yesterday, and the person taking her call confirms there is a violation and he's submitting a report.

He also mentioned there have been several reports of signage violations, and she got the impression that the vast majority are the Brownstain Gang.

Interesting Article

Interesting article on the demographics of voters for governor.

The article paints a pretty grim picture for Hogan in general, but here is one morsel of hope - quoted from the article...

"Another sign to watch is changes in turnout in Montgomery relative to the rest of the State. If Montgomery turnout drops relative to other jurisdictions, that could spell trouble for Brown."

When I voted in Silver Spring this morning the voting place was a ghost town. Here's hoping...

But what's going to happen? Nothing (of significance).

The signs are there, they will likely influence some which may or may not push the stain up and out of the bowl (although he'll likely win regardless given the sheeple of this state).

So, once he's governor, he get's what, a fine? So what.

That's not me being a pessimist, just a realist. I voted for Hogan. I tell everyone I can why they should vote for him and I want him to win so bad...However, despite the incredible showing Hogan has done so far the hill is still huge.

 

[Mr H]

Why just vote, when you can also be on record as pushing back?

Flood the BoE with valid reports... It can't hurt.

For gods sake report the fraud.. let the court deal with it.

 

[smokering]

I'd rather have hope than doom....I like the rush; the crash not so much. The difference is at my lowest I'll be at the same level as the doomers, at their highest they will meet me at my crash site.

 

[Blacksmith101]

The more official reports the more chance of winning in court and the more public opinion will turn against them. Take names report and document for every one report there are probably dozens that are unreported. But when everyone you know has a story about how they reported voter fraud and nothing was done the ire of the people will show.

[Schipperke]

Be sure to get other people in MoCo to waste their vote for Hogan too. In 2010 MoCo turnout was low, in 2002 MoCo turnout was high.

It won't take a lot of people to tip the balance.

Time, not vote. Votes are only waisted using them for Quinn

He's not 100% accurate. While it's good to be optimistic about the polls that have come out, no one knows anything until the rubber hits the road tomorrow night.

Wow they must own one of those "excuse-o-matic" machines.

They could've just done what the Sun did and endorse Brown, but release an awesome editorial praising Hogan and basically endorsing him too at the same time. That way you can't lose! Of course nobody was supposed to catch on to this though I suppose. lol

Or they could just admit they forked up.

anyone who puts their faith in any kind of poll is asking for trouble.

imho of course.

Personally I think they knew how bad it was and did this to suppress the Republicans , give up before the election

Might been thinking tin foil type comment once but polls across the nation made some races look close and others blow out by Democrats. None where even close.

I made a comment a couple weeks back, where I noticed Brownstain's internal polling was no longer being made public.

They saw this coming, which is why we had a case of Yellow Fever ("Vote for the Democrats") sweep the center of the state.

Possible .. but... it is just as likely to surpress Democrats ..

Now for those that think realism is an asset in politics.. they are more likely to yield to such a trick..unless they learn the trick.


Every trick can be countered. But you must see the trap, in the end Demcrats are more likely to fall for it. Other than the realists who know R can win in MD.
