Republican shenanigans

[zappasguitar]

Once again Christian Republicans demonstrate they believe they shouldn't have to obey the laws us regular folk have to live by...


A Christian group in Texas is threatening to file a formal complaint with the Attorney General’s office because a woman who lives near Austin was forced to cover up her “Vote the Bible” T-shirt after election officials suggested that it could be construed as illegal electioneering.

In a complaint to the Williamson Country Election Administrator, Texas Values President Jonathan Saenz said that Ms. Alva “Kay” Hill was told that her shirt “may be offensive” because it was an implicit suggestion to “vote Republican.”

Texas Election Code § 85.036 states that “a person may not electioneer for or against any candidate, measure, or political party in or within 100 feet” of a polling place.

Hill was permitted to vote after an election worker gave her a jacket to cover up the T-shirt.

Saenz is now demanding that the Williamson Country Election Office release a public statement that “Vote the Bible” T-shirts are allowed in polling places, inform poll workers and publicly apologize to Hill for the “embarrassment, humiliation and intimidation.”

But Williamson County Public Affairs Director Connie Watson told KTBC that poll workers were simply following Texas election law.

“The shirt did say vote so it did have to do with voting,” she explained. “Electioneering or loitering within 100 feet of the entrance to the polling place or inside the polling place is not allowed. Electioneering would cover wearing a hat, a pen, a T-shirt or a sign that would indicate a position for a political party, candidate or a proposition.”

They eventually were able to vote for Romney, it isn't something done by the Democrts, it appears to simple be a glitch in some machines, once voters played with machines they were able to vote for Romney.

It is why I like a paper trail and paper ballots! Down with voting machines which can malfunction!

How about malfunction. The articles I read did not claim fraud by Demcrats, you simply made it up!

 

[NOVA]

I never heard of a vote Obama getting changed into a vote for Romney, have you ?

Of course its just a "malfunction"......only a vote for Obama being changed into one for Romney would it be called fraud.

Bravo, you need evidence that this is fraud, orchestrated by the Democrats, I'll wait, thanks. Your paranoia doesn't count.

That's a good little Rightie puppet...just ignore the thread topic and hope everyone buys into your little diversion.

The difference is I provided proof...you provided bupkis.

See, that's the thing.

These hate crazed Righties like bravo don't need "evidence" to prove their claims...

They "know" what the truth" is and no amount of evidence proving otherwise is going to change their minds.

you didn't provide any proof of shenanigans.

what if someone wore a shirt that said - vote for garfield? would that person be engaged in shenanigans?

Another bald faced Yurt lie.

I provided a link to the article and in the article there is a link to the complaint filed by angry Christian Righties who want to be allowed to electioneer at polling places despite the law being very clear as to what is and isn't allowed.

How's about for once you try sticking with the subject from the OP. Is the woman wearing the "vote the bible" shirt violating the law?

i specifically addressed the OP. i asked a question to gauge what you consider shenanigans. i have a strong hunch you consider this shenanigans because it says bible. had the shirt said garfield, you would have no problem with it.

further, you have not provided proof this person is a republican or they were suggesting to vote republican. the article's OPINION (which is not proof) states it was an implicit suggest only. that does not rise to the level of proof.

“a person may not electioneer for or against any candidate, measure, or political party in or within 100 feet”

the shirt did not mention any candidate, measure, or political party. hence, the shirt did not break the law. obama believes in the bible, maybe she voted for obama.

your notion of "proof" needs work.

Riiiiiiiight...There's been this steady drumbeat from extremists on the RIGHT side of the political aisle that has claimed over and over during the past four years that Obama is a Muslim.

And if Obama is believed to be a Muslim, whose central religious text is the Quran, then explain how a shirt that says "vote the BIBLE" could possibly be considered as an endorsement of that candidate?

what? this post makes no sense whatsoever. it does not at all take away from the fact the person could be a democrat. just because some republicans think obama is a muslim, does not mean democrats don't believe obama is a christian. seriously, your logic is wholly flawed.

is there a reason you have not answered my question about the vote garfield shirt?

Now comes the "clueless rube" persona.

Yurt has to claim my post "makes no sense" otherwise he'd have to admit I am right.

If Yurt did even the TINIEST bit of research, say googling "vote the bible", he'd know who backs the "vote the Bible" campaign.

But he won't do that of course.

To do that research would force him to admit I was right yet again...and we all learned long ago that Yurt absolutely refuses to admit when I am right.

explain how your post makes sense. it makes no sense to claim that some republicans believe obama is a muslim, to refute the proposition that this person might be a democrat.

further, why do you keep running away from answer my question about the garfield tshirt? why should i have to research YOUR claim? that is YOUR job. but i'll remember that next time you demand someone prove their claims.
