Default Is this possible?

When Doug Hoffman blamed ACORN for his loss in the NY-23 special House
election, he was apparently channeling the GOP base. A new Public
Policy Polling survey found that a majority of Republican voters think
that ACORN stole the presidential election for Barack Obama last year.
Fifty-two percent of national GOPers said ACORN stole Obama the
presidency; only 27% think he won it legitimately.

Overall, 62% of Americans think Obama legitimately won the election.
Only 26% think ACORN stole it for him, with most Democrats and
independents dismissing the idea.

TPM's Eric Kleefeld points out that, given the 53% to 46% divide
between Obama and Sen. John McCain in the 2008 race, "in order to
believe that Obama wasn't the true winner of the 2008 election, one
would have to think that ACORN (and perhaps other groups) stuffed
ballots to the tune of over 9.5 million votes."

Dave Weigel writes that this idea has been circulating among
conservatives for a while.


OK. lets look at this. Several precincts reported zero votes for
Hoffman but checking after his concession revealed he had numerous
votes in them. Sure sounds suspicious to me. The reported totals on
election night on which he based his concession turned out to be
wildly wrong, seems kinda suspicious to me. ACORN has been involved
in vote fraud all across the USA so ti seems like a reasonable
conjecture considering the circumstances.


You are such a liar. Acorn doesn't fill out ballots, they register
people to vote.

Where the hell do you get your information, Worldnet Daily?

Please go to your local Acorn office and inquire. You're a poorly
informed citizen and I think you need to pick up your game.
