"Currants Bw..."

I've watched every US Election since Bush vs Gore in 2000

But that was all monther, not all nighter. 16 years on no one is any the wiser as to who won that one.

Florida has always held itself to the same high electoral standards of countries like Zimbabwe or Egypt.

PA is fighting Florida for the rigging election award tonight and seems to be doing very well.

Obviously not enough white guys with Make America Great Again baseball caps and Baseball Bats to monitor the situation

I thought Podesta stopped hiring those guys once he got caught?

Hate to be one of the patronising lecturing Europeans, but I find the whole concept of long waiting lines at polling centres, partisan election officials and active voter suppression efforts just disgusting especially in a country that's meant to be one of the beacons of democracy to the world.

You say that but if they don't, who is going to stop Blacks from voting

Seriously though the whole qeueing up to vote thing is ridiculous. If you can provide enough ID to order a passport or drivers licence online you should be able to vote online. Wouldn't be having this too close to call shit unless the numbers were close enough in a state to warrant a mandatory recount.

Seriously? You want to hand it over to a state run web operation? Have you forgotten Obamacare so soon? That web operation cost over a billion and didn't work for a year. Meanwhile 3 blokes knocked up an alternative in their garage in 3 days and for zero dollars and zero cents. The black boxes are bad enough. It should always be paper ballots and proper audit trails because that's a lot harder to rig.

It's best not too look down our noses when only three months ago the 'law governors' in this country backed up Labour's NEC decision to stop 130,000 new members voting in a blatant attempt to corrupt the process. It was a last ditch, desperate move trying to stop an inevitable result because they didn't have the nerve to go the whole hog and rig the votes.

You do realise that other political parties do impose mandatory freeze dates for voting in leadership contests

Plus it's odd how people criticise the NEC for imposing the freeze date (which Corbyn could have blocked if he hadn't decided to leave after the vote to put him on the ballot, but then that's typical of the stupidity of the guy) and praising them for ensuring he was automatically on the ballot, when even the guy who wrote the clause said it was ambiguous at best.

Let's face it Labour have far bigger problems than not allowing silly buggers to vote, on both wings it's bereft of imagination and ideas and very soon it's going to face oblivion. I won't shed any tears when that happens

No offence but that's completely different and not really relevant. The Labour party, just like the Republicans and the Democrats in the states are a private party. How they administer their own internal elections to select their leader is up to them and people always have the option of leaving the party and joining another one if they don't like those rules.

It's wholly different to what's going on in the states where minorities, namely African Americans are deliberately being systematically disenfranchised from the entire electoral process through corrupt partisan officials.

Watching the war criminal Karl Rove just sitting there without being arrested is pretty fucking offensive. How many civilians paid the price for his fucked up policies? Just sitting there, laughing and joking. What a fucked up world.
