Elections Between One Candidate?

elections-putinThe photo on the right shows an announcement by the rector of the Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University to the students. The first sentence reads:

Dear students,

On March 4, 2012 we will have elections for the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. . . .

Hmmm. As of now, Putin is only the Prime Minister of Russia. He is one of the candidates for President in the next elections. There are others as well. The elections are about a month away.

But the rector knows who the elections are for.

One of the FB comments in Russian under the photo said, with the typical dark humor born and refined in the years of Communism: “If you are electing another person, you are not voting in the same elections, apparently.”

Ha ha. Funny, right? These things happen in Russia. They know in advance who is going to win.

Not only in Russia. Here in the US too.

For example, Newsmax knew 2 days in advance that Romney will win the Nevada caucuses. The article was published online on February 2, and then pulled out quickly. Then it was republished 2 days later under a new date. Even with the changed date, the time of the article, 8:40pm in Florida (6:40pm in Nevada), makes it impossible for anyone to know if Romney won. (The first results started coming at 7pm.)

The article claims that the caucus in Nevada was “quiet.” But there was nothing quiet about it in reality. The article mentions nothing about the broadcasted vote count at the Adelson precinct in Clark County. While it says that Romney won (past tense), the article gives no specific numbers. Also, when it lists the number of delegates each of the candidates has so far, the number given to Ron Paul is 4. A very serious mistake. (Ron Paul won 7 delegates in Iowa, and 3 in New Hampshire.)

In reality, what Newsmax did was no different from the announcement of the Russian rector above: “In two days, the Nevada GOP will be voting for the candidate for Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney. If you are voting for another person, you are not participating in the same caucus.” Typical Communist tactics. Newsmax should change its name to News Marx.

One question remains: How did they know? How did Newsmax know that Romney will win, 2 days in advance? How did CNN and FOX News know that Romney was the winner when the screen was showing that only 4% percent of the votes were counted?

And why does the Nevada GOP refuse to release the full and detailed vote count, precinct by precinct? Could it be because then the caucus-goers at every precinct will be able to see that the numbers are incorrect?

Apparently, the GOP leadership wants us to elect between one candidate; just as it was in the Soviet Union. The caucus is just for the show; in reality, it is what the Party decides.

But the GOP misses the fact that this is not 1932, and this is not the USSR. And we have Internet now. Times have changed, and “business as usual” can’t fly anymore.

    This may be simply a preplanned GOP elite trick to force a 3rd party candidate to split the conservitave ticket so that the conservative candidate along with the GOP candidate can be defeated by BO, with a little help from ACORN, its still alive, and being funded by Soros and BO both.

    Im suspecting your site is being monitored. Everytime I come here there is a severe lag. I just went to a poll for NewsMax. The first question gave you a choice of either Mitt or Newt. I skipped it and went to the second question. It gave all the candidates and I picked the one I will support. When I went to submit my vote, it said I had to finish the first question. I emailed them and told them how devious I felt that tactic was. I will not, nor will I ever voter for any of their 3 idiots running.

    Political corruption is completely out of control. It's gotten to the point of me not trusting ANY politician, Democrat or Republican. Perhaps what this country is overdue for is a violent bloody revolution where everyone responsible for the corruption is put in front of a citizen's firing squad and shot! Voting is manipulated. We should start with the Lawyer Politicians first! Too many voters have no idea of who or what they are voting for. The "News" Media functions more as a propaganda machine, and now we have a treasonous President in office who circumvents the Constitution. What else is there left for us to do?

    Having gone to the repub caucas in nevada I was stuned at what I saw. First of all there was no vote taken for anyone only a poll. The process was so confused that the people in charge knew nothing about the process unless they were left over from 2008. The news media is projecting falsehoods in the hope for an audiance with out reguard to the truth. If this is what the repubs and the media continue then Obama is a shoe-in

    "Ron Paul won 7 delegates in Iowa, and 3 in New Hampshire."

    Not true. Iowa hasn't even chosen their delegates yet. Chances are, Ron Paul will get most of the delegates in Iowa and most other caucus states.

    It's interesting to note that, as a result of the entire caucus debacle in the state of Nevada, the Nevada Republican Chairwoman has resigned. The fact that it took TWO ENTIRE DAYS for Nevada to count and then re-count all of their districts' votes speaks volumes. As far as the entertainment (oops I meant to say "news") media decided to tell everyone how Romney had won Nevada, that is a ploy they are quite famous for….. based on certain selected polls, they decided that the caucus had already taken place. I've seen this type of coverage on other subjects as well. Nothing new there…. STILL…. hey, she QUIT! Think about that!

    First I want to say I am 51 years old and I have children and grandchildren that I am trying to help protect their future. My father was born in 1889 and when I was just two years old my Daddy would ask me Who sewed the American Flag Nancy, I would blurt out Betsy Ross Daddy! Then he would ask me who chopped down the cherry tree Nancy and told his Dad the truth when his Daddy asked him who did it? I would blurt out George Washinton Daddy. It was only a year ago that I found out my ancestors the Summers family helped get George Washington elected and become president. I lost my father in 1969. I am law abiding and I don't use drugs or drink. I don't even own a gun. I have worked in the mortgage industry one of the biggest direct lenders in this country. I have worked all of my life and have a good education. Now with being said. I think it is a crying shame that we as Americans can't all agree and see the truth since it is clearly at our own research descretions. IF your honest, and care about your freedom then you should want to vote for RON PAUL no other.

    Not one of the candidates running 2012 you can say that about. Ron Has a plan a great plan and he has seen way beyond any person in gomerment that the destruction happening today would happen and he predicted it and warned of it since he has been in congress. I to when working for the mortgage lender predicted the financial collapse way before OBAMA or BUSH came into office! Our country is going to become a communist colony if we dont act fast. The voting fraud is just a small trickle of what is going on. RON PAUL knows this. His supporters have been smart enough to educate themselves and research enough to make a logical and smart decision to support him.

    With all the RP supporters I have seen making comments in networks they are not violent people at all or druggies either. They are doing their very best to educate others and they have dedicated themsellves to this election because they know RON PAUL is the only moral, honest man that has the plan to fix our countries growing problems. He is also the only candidate that will win against OBAMA! So what gets me the most is why are the ROMNEY SUPPORTERS ,Santorum, and Gingrich supporters not even bothering to find out the truth. Do they all have something to gain by electing these dishonest men that will continue to take their freedom away and destroy further our economy and kill more of our young men. IF our country was bombed today over four times from another land we would loose less Americans than we have already lost in this siinceless war! VOTE RON PAUL if you want a change or continue to flirt with disaster and when it all collapses because you wanted to listen to the lies the media is telling you.. yes I will be right there telling you with the other RON PAUL supporters WE TOLD YOU SO!
