Obama and Dems 'Absolutely Crushing' Romney and GOP in Early Voting in Nevada
Obama and Dems 'Absolutely Crushing' Romney and GOP in Early Voting in Nevada

On MSNBC this morning, Nevada political reporter Jon Ralston said that President Obama and Democrats are “absolutely crushing” Mitt Romney and Republicans in early voting in the state. He’s right. Democrats lead Republicans on every metric: mail ballots returned, in-person early voting, and total ballots cast.
There are videos and transcripts / all fascinating and helping our worried souls

In other words, strictly a poll of apparent Latino voters was taken.
I'm sure it was quite scientific and un-biased.

5. Thanks for the heads up - I had taken a

tiny vacation (a few hours) from worrying and ran across these good news.
Onward and upward!
Here's some good news....Obama didn't eat the entire dog. He shared some of it.

7. The numbers are straight from the NV Secretary of States office

Whether they come from GMU.EDU, Jon Ralston Reports or in PDF form, some are delayed more than others. But they're usually within a few hours of actual ballot results.

The numbers only show who, by party affiliation, has voted, in total.
Umm, sorry, what was that again?

11. I do believe that this is where the famously bad photoshop pic came from.
He had a pretend rally out in angry white suburban Henderson and there were so few attendees they had a 12 year-old (he works for free) try to make it look like there is some interest in him.
>insert photo here<
Yes, it is a rather poor job of stitching together several photos to make a big one.
The errors shown are difficult to tie together without some distortion.
DUmpmonkeys have no problems with distortion, however.
It's a mosiac, DUmpmonkey. You know, many pix put closely together to make one big one.
What a DUmbass.

edit for more.
Found related thread. Pant-hooting proceeds.

At best, they posted a really bad panorama. The only right thing you said.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
