In Brooklyn, residents reported that they could not enter the buildings where the vote was to be held.
Officials told some voters that they couldn't access the the keys to the facility.
"You can't vote nor cast any type of ballot. The keys to the building are in a locked box and no one has the key," voter Torsha Childs wrote on Facebook.
At another voting station, @LammyGwanBadSuh tweeted: "I have been here since 550 am.. Still cannot vote. Machines are not up and there are no paper ballots."

When Jonathan Petersen went to vote, he was shocked to see his deceased mother's name above his.
He said: "All of a sudden, she's on the voter rolls at my address, where she has never lived. Is it possible that someone has been voting using her name for a few years?"

I love Cenk Uygur, he's one of my favourites. He was a Republican but when he saw how crazy they were, he became a Democrat. He really is a true liberal/ moderate leftie at heart.
ReplyDeleteHe once said to a left winger he liked who he was interviewing once, that be was okay about the state taking 50% of his earnings as tax. That's very generous from a person that was once a Republican and who obviously earns quite a lot money.
Once he was interviewing Sam Harris, that dry, unimaginative liberal hawk. Sam Harris said he would return nuclear weapons if an enemy fired them, but Cenk said he wouldn't. Why kill millions of more innocent people, he said?
Cenk Uygur is a really decent guy. There's too many loud mouthed hawks in this world. Or they're getting too much coverage in the right wing media.
I'm just absolutely fed up with tea party types and libertarians. These people are an absolute minority but the media gives them too much coverage. The loud mouthed Trump gets far more media attention than Bernie. There wouldn't even be a libertarian movement which the millions the Koch brothers have pumped into it.
Ud better wake up coz Cenk is another tool. Good luck with that.
DeleteBollocks, you guys are just paranoid.
DeleteBetter paranoid than stupid.
DeleteIf a person is given a pay check to appear regularly on television, you can bet the farm the person is either severely handicapped in terms of what he can and cannot say (and is OK with being hobbled in return for a pay check) or the person is straight up part of the system (think anderson cooper).
DeleteSo no, it's not that we're under a spell of paranoia that causes us to not trust what we witness via the media. Rather it's a spell of Truth that has us in its grip.

But Cenk Uygur is genuine. It's his own show, no one pays him anything. He left MSNBC because they were censoring him, and because he had moved to the left. MSNBC tried to censor him but failed, now the right wing 5 columnists like yourselves are trying to shut him up by trying to discredit him. It's not thing to work mate.

ReplyDeleteVote rigging ? You ain't seen nothing yet.
ReplyDeleteJust wait until June 23rd and the 'stay-in-by-a-whisker' eu result.
No, the pro EU will win. That's easy to see. I'm going to vote to go in too, even though I hate the banker controlled EU. If we leave the ruling class lackeys, the Tories and UKIP, will just sign us up to Tipp, the US trade agreement. Then they will do us right over. GMO's and everything.
DeleteI agree. I can see it being 70% for Remain.
DeleteYou bet, the commercials for staying in are too slick. When the ruling class want something they usually get it.

Defeatist nonsense. Comments like this are a huge part of the problem.
On voting
ReplyDelete"If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal."
- Emma Goldman (1889-1940)
"You know, comrades," says Stalin, "that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this - who will count the votes, and how."
- Joseph Stalin, quoted in 'Memoirs of Stalin's Former Secretary' (1992), by Boris Bazhanov
Polish journalist Konrad Stachnio reports that 2 million illegal military weapons are in process of being smuggled from Ukraine into Poland & the EU, with the apparent collusion of a corrupt Polish government which is serving NATO chaos agents
ReplyDeleteThese many hundreds of thousands of Kalashnikovs & even heavier weapons & explosives, will be available both to extremist jihadis & to extremist far-right groups who wish to make European civil war upon Muslims
Stachnio, alongside French journalist Thierry Meyssan, say that in Ukraine neo-Nazis & violent Islamists have formed an alliance based on common hatred of Russia. Together with Ukrainian smuggling mafias, these groups intend to supply the means of violence across all Europe.
As with the Muslim migrants, the millions of Ukrainian migrants who have recently moved into Eastern Europe, have a small but dangerous minority among them
Most Ukrainians adapt easily into Poland, Slovakia & Czechia due to language & cultural similarities. Czechia is fast-tracking residence & work visas for Ukrainians to supply needed labour in Czechia's booming economy. But the Ukrainian mafia groups can move in amidst this wave of several million.
Illegal guns are already available in Europe, the residue of Nato's supplying masses of weapons in the 1990s Balkan wars. In European cities, illegal guns can often be bought from the same groups who sell heroin & cocaine, often Balkan mafias.
But illegal gun supplies in the EU will now be much larger, and prices much lower
Poland's government is corrupt enough to support Ukraine's far-right, even though the Ukrainian far-right killed tens of thousands of Poles in the early 20th century
To distract their people, the Polish government sells propaganda that the enemies of Poland are Muslims (although there are almost no Muslims in Poland); and Russia (although Russia was one of the largest buyer of Polish food & products before 'sanctions')
A question that could be asked, in considering the corruption of Poland and Nato in general, is whether Russia as well has secretly colluded in allowing the West to turn Ukraine into a failed state, where mafias run amok and can supply the means to destroy the rest of Europe
An excellent article, I will look up the links. Russia is vast and had its own mafia.
DeleteSome sections of the ruling class are treacherous, they want Putin out so they can carry on with their looting.
Putin is always in great danger as Washington will be working with dissenters to get rid of him.
Putin won't be working to turn the Russian part of Ukraine into a failed state. Putin will not be secretly colluding with the US. Putin is a puritan who puts duty above personal gain.
The west can't make Putin out. They're all on the make, and nearly all of them are corrupt, so they believe Putin must be as well. Putin is our best chance for world peace.

New York elections have long been rigged. In the 2010 election for Governor of New York State, one candidate stood out above all, especially at the candidate debate - as you can see for yourself in the clip below
ReplyDeleteA wonderful eloquent, entertaining black man, Jimmy McMillan of 'The Rent Is Too Damn High' political party has very Bernie-Sanders-like views
The original video of the debate with him, had mutilple millions of views before being deleted from YouTube
Jimmy McMillan was highlighted on ZeroHedge, & New Yorkers could not stop talking about him
But it was claimed, after the voting machines ran their totals, that almost no one voted for this remarkable man, just a few tens of thousands, almost none of the millions who enjoyed him on television & YouTube
Here is a 3 minute clip of Jimmy McMillan from that debate on 18 October 2010 ... both very funny & moving as well

As soon as I heard there had been an overwhelming win for Clinton, I knew it had been rigged. It's terrifying that our democracies have sunk to this level.
ReplyDeleteI'm not pushing Cenk again, but here he is in New York doing video on the Killary/ Bernie election. Cenk is disappointing as he is being a good journalist and not taking sides, but I know he is a Bernie man.
ReplyDeleteWhat bothers me about the footage is the amount of people there for Killary. Went media are they watching, don't they know that bitch might start WW3. Perhaps most of them are Zionists. Zionist Christians wasn't WW3, because Jesus will come back then and murder all us liberals, and Buddhists, and everyone who isn't a warmongering right wing crazed conservative.
