should be nice quite night for parties in democrat sites ..
Just when I didn’t think it could get any worst for my Democratic Party friends, I find that 80 percent of the new “E-polling-books” are being used in the 47th . None along the coast and none in south county.
The wave of the future in error free and fraud free voting is coming to the OC elections.
I can’t wait to see the look on the face of those clowns who try double vote, and the E Polling Book not only comes up with the address where their polling place is, but it even shows if they voted already.
Cook, you really are one of those Dornanistas who thinks that fraud explains the results in the 47th??
Regardless of the outcome of Prop 19, I’m going to celebrate Election Day by partaking in Buffalo Wild Wings’ “Blazin’ Challenge” tonight in Irvine. Yes, I’m talking about hot wings which are 55 cents tonight!
