[IsraelTimes] Texas authorities say they arrested a man who claimed to be working for Donald Trump for voter fraud. Phillip Cook, Jr. was arrested after trying to vote for a second time at a polling station in an unincorporated area outside of Houston on Tuesday. Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls says Cook told poll officials and sheriff’s deputies that he was helping the Trump campaign and testing election security. Nehls said Cook was booked on suspicion of a felony charge.
[Ynet] An election watchdog said Tuesday some voters were denied provisional ballots at several polling stations in Atlanta.
Georgia Election Protection coalition spokesman Harold Franklin said poll mangers refused to provide provisional ballots to voters. He said the group received reports that voters were given no reason for being refused. Franklin claimed voters who are eligible or entitled to a provisional ballot were denied. He did not know the number of voters who were refused, but said the bulk occurred in Fulton County.
Franklin said he spoke with Fulton County election officials, who he said told polling managers to provide voters with ballots. The Fulton County elections office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Election Protection is organized by the Lawyers Committee for Civils Rights Under Law.
[PITTSBURGH.CBSLOCAL] Today is Election Day and for the most part, voting has been smooth. Many areas are already seeing long lines with some officials saying they wouldn’t be surprised if voter turnout topped 80 percent.
However, facts are stubborn; statistics are more pliable... there have been some scattered issues where voters are encountering problems.
"Every time I would push a candidate for the Republican party, it would come up for the Democratic candidate," said voter David Drane.
Election judges in Clinton Township, Butler County confirmed there were issues with two of their eight automated voting machines. Most of the issues came when people tried to vote straight party ticket.
However, facts are stubborn; statistics are more pliable... others said they specifically wanted to vote for Republican Donald Trump only to see their vote switched before their eyes to Democrat Hillary Clinton ... sometimes described as Deplorable, Irredeemable and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Henry L. Stimson ... "I went back, pressed Trump again. Three times I did this, so then I called one of the women that were working the polls over. And she said you must be doing it wrong. She did it three times and it defaulted to Hillary every time," Bobbie Lee Hawranko said.
Pennsylvania State Representative Daryl Metcalfe went to Clinton Township to check on the reports for himself.
"If somebody has an issue, they should certainly let the judge of elections at the precinct know and also call their county bureau of elections as folks have done here this morning," Pa. Rep. Daryl Metcalfe said.
[BREITBART] Around 8AM, the Philadelphia Republican Party tweeted, "court-appointed minority inspectors refused entry [to a polling location]. @PhillyPolice have been called."
An hour later: "Update: Ward 64-15: reports of electioneering. Our poll watcher has been barred entry."
Shortly thereafter: "Update: Ward 13-14: Won’t allow our minority inspector in, threatened to call police. Go ahead."
Then around 10AM: "Ward 4 divisions 10, 16, 17--illegal @HillaryClinton lit being distributed inside polling place."
And then: "Update: Ward 12-2 (NW Philly)--Sign-in sheet instead of clerk allowing anybody to come in and vote if they sign. Illegal."
During that same hour: "Court-appointed minority inspector at 17&Spring Garden--"I was just told... I’m not allowed to be in the room & ... to wait outside."
Then around 11AM: "Ward 37-9 (North Philly): Poll workers handing out Hillary lit inside polling station."
At 9:38AM this morning, a local election worker, Brittany Foreman, tweeted a video of her explaining voter fraud that she claims to have witnessed at her location, giving specific details in her account.
Most of these tweets were tagged with #VoterFraud.
Political analysts sometimes say that Pennsylvania is "Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Alabama," meaning that there are two Democratic strongholds in the Keystone State, surrounded by vast expanses of deep-red support for limited government, faith, marriage, and the Second Amendment.
Philadelphia is nothing short of notorious for voter fraud. One of the most infamous examples of voting-law violations in modern history was when The Justice Department secured a court judgment against the Black Panthers for a videotaped incident of voter intimidation, a case that after the government won but before enforcement could take place, Barack Obama Ready to Rule from Day One... ’s then-new Attorney General Eric Inaction Jackson Holder ... aka Mister Fast and Furious... to drop the case and let the Black Panthers go.
[DENVER.CBSLOCAL] Felony charges have been filed against a Golden-based certified public accountant for twice voting for her father, who passed away in 2012. In October prosecutors filed two felony forgery charges against Toni Lee Newbill, charging her with first voting for her father in a 2013 general election and then again casting a ballot for her father in a 2016 Republican primary election.
Her father, Ralph Nanninga, died in 2012 in El Paso County at the age of 86.
"It certainly wasn’t the best decision on her part but it was an act of outright frustration," said her attorney Chris Samuelson. He explained that after her father’s death, Newbill kept receiving ballots intended for her father -- a registered Republican -- and that she attempted to have him removed from active voter rolls.
"She received numerous ballots. She shredded some, she threw some away, she wrote on envelopes and mailed them back," Samuelson said.
But Samuelson said when she could not get her father’s name off the voter rolls, she became exasperated and voted for him.
"She did not intend to commit a crime, she did not intend to cast a ballot, she was just trying to get their attention."
In January 2015, the El Paso County Clerk and Recorder sent Newbill a form to have her deceased father removed from voting rolls. It’s unclear if Newbill completed and returned the form.
[NBCMIAMI] Two clerks from precincts in Pompano Beach were fired after a dispute that was the first issue in South Florida during Election Day.
Deputies were called to the Herb Skolknick Community Center after complaints of possible voter intimidation from the Democratic and Republican poll watchers at one precinct. That led to a dispute between the clerks from precincts 23 and 24 - one a Democrat, the other a Republican. Supervisor of Elections Dr. Brenda Snipes was notified and she fired both, ordering them to leave the property immediately.
David Booth, the Republican clerk of Precinct 23, tells NBC 6 he was one of the two clerks fired and told to leave the property. Replacement clerks were brought in.
"They brought in replacements for myself and the other woman who was the clerk at CO-23 and we were told to leave the premises," Booth told NBC 6. "It doesn't look good, it really doesn't look good, it looks like they're trying to do something dishonest."
Two poll watchers were also removed, according to a spokesperson for the supervisor of elections.
[NBCMIAMI] Jupiter police are investigating an altercation that broke out Tuesday between a woman and a man at a polling place. Initial reports indicate a verbal dispute turned physical at the Jupiter Community Center. WPTV reports the woman was standing in line when Thomas Garrecht allegedly "violated her space".
According to the Palm Beach Post, Donna Tatlici was handing out Donald Trump literature when Garrecht yelled at her. As the dispute escalated, the two got closer and Tatlici pepper-sprayed the man, the Palm Beach Post reports. Garrecht reportedly grabbed Tatlici by the neck and tackled her.
Jupiter police say they will take the case to the State Attorney's Office and recommend assault and battery charges against Garrecht.
Garrecht was not taken into custody.
A few hours later, Palm Beach Sheriff's Office reported another fight at a polling place in Lake Worth. Deputies were called out to Royal Palm Presbyterian after two men got into a fight.
One man was shooting video using his cellphone of another man. The second man was upset about being recorded and slapped the man's phone out of his hand, deputies said. The first man then struck the second man causing him to fall on the ground. According to a police report, the the man who was struck feared for his life and alerted the other man that he had a weapon.
Despite all the spin going into Election Day, he did not vote for the Democrat.
[IsraelTimes] A front man says former President George W. Bush did not vote for Republican Donald Trump or Democrat Hillary Clinton ... sometimes described as the Smartest Woman in the World and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Henry Kissinger ... Freddy Ford says the most recent Republican president voted "none of the above for president and Republican down-ballot." That means Bush voted for Republicans in congressional and local races.
It’s not a complete surprise. The Bush family includes the two most recent Republican presidents, but neither endorsed nor campaigned for the billionaire businessman who captured the party’s nomination.
[LATIMES] One person was killed and at least three others were maimed Tuesday in an active shooting near a polling place in Azusa. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Capt. Jeff Scroggin said police were dealing with at least one suspect who was heavily armed.
Few details were released about the shooting, which occurred sometime after 2 p.m. in a residential neighborhood in the area of Fourth Street and Orange Avenue, said Officer Jerry Willison of the Azusa Police Department.
"This is a very volatile and critical situation," he said.
Willison declined to provide the location of the shooting for the safety of the officers and the victims, he said. Azusa police urged residents to stay out of the area and asked all residents to shelter in place.
It was unclear whether any officers were maimed in the shooting, Willison said.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said they were assisting police.
Azusa Union School District issued a lockdown for Slauson Middle and Mountain View Elementary schools about 2:15 p.m., officials said. A nearby daycare center and preschool was also locked down.
This one, thank goodness, turned out to be neither politics nor jihadis, according to an update at 9:40 a.m. ET courtesy of SAT2014:
About 40 court-appointed Republican election inspectors were turned away from Philadelphia polling stations on Election Day, the party’s city committee said this morning.

Trump won Pennsylvania. Trump would have had a huge landslide if he did not have to 1. battle the Never Trumpers in his own party, 2. a MSM that piled on against him and tried to elevate HildaB 3. a crooked Hillary and the DNC, 4. all the left-wing PACS, 5. the DOJ, and 6. foreign money being funneled through the CF and CGI to help elect HildaB. He really pulled off something akin to a miracle.
And thank goodness for that -- another epidemic averted.
[Breitbart] Author Gersh Kuntzman tried to get Madonna to honor her lewd promise to gratify Hillary voters and filmed himself doing so.
From the New York Daily News:
It’s another broken campaign promise.
Madonna has withdrawn from her pledge to provide some, er, satisfaction to Hillary voters, the latest disappointment in an election season full of them.
There are many, many relieved voters. Not all of them men...
The singer had famously promised the oral sex last month -- "And I am good," she added, lest anyone question her gratification qualifications -- but when a Hillary supporter, armed with a selfie of his ballot, showed up to claim the prize, he was greeted with derision.
"Ha ha ha ha," laughed the security guard at her Madgesty’s Upper East Side manse. "I didn’t get that information, sorry, man."
He then hung up, leaving a reporter with the ultimate hanging chad. Indeed, given that I was the only man seeking to have my ballot punched, I wanted to ask a follow-up question: Was Madonna upset that no men showed up to be rewarded for saying "I’m with her"? Not even if she hummed "Material Girl."
#3
But I betcha Anthony Weiner feels like getting a pardon from death sentence at the last minute. My advice, don't get too relaxed Carlos - she still has enough money to hire the best hitmen.
#10
Madonna not keeping her promise is a good thing. But I hope most sincerely that all these other celebrities will keep their promise to leave the country.

The election of Donald Trump to the presidency sparked protests early Wednesday across California, drawing crowds to city streets and college campuses. The demonstrations reflected self-indulgent sadness, drunken anger and bursts of incoherent rage. Crowds openly disavowed the president-elect and a few resorted to vandalism.
Shortly after Trump delivered a victory speech in New York, an estimated 2,000 people rallied at UCLA when two separate demonstrations merged into one, said UCLA police Sgt. Miguel Banuelos. The group marched from the UCLA campus through Westwood Village to a federal building on Wilshire Boulevard, Banuelos said. There were no arrests.
The demonstration peaked about 1 a.m., when a Trump piñata was set on fire in a trash can outside a Westwood Boulevard store. The small blaze aside, no major incidents were reported and police said the crowd was mostly peaceful.
N.J. Omorogieva, 19, said she was “heartbroken” by the election’s result when she spotted the crowd in Westwood while walking home.
“Of course I joined in,” she said. “To give hugs to people who were overcome by devastation.”
In Oakland, demonstrators smashed a window at the Oakland Tribune newsroom and ignited trash containers and tires, police said.
Home of the Raiders, you know...
The crowd broke windows on five businesses and vandalized another, said Oakland police spokeswoman Johnna Watson. One citation was issued but no one was arrested, she said.
Why not?
Protesters also burned Trump in effigy, KNTV reported.
At UC Santa Barbara, hundreds marched near the campus, with some chanting, “Not my president. Not my president.”
One person carried a Mexican flag, according to video posted by the student newspaper, the Daily Nexus.
About 500 students marched through the La Jolla campus of UC San Diego, protesting Trump’s win and chanting his name with an expletive.
At UCLA, some students lifted their arms up while demonstrating in Westwood Village. Others chanted, “Not my president,” according to social media users who documented the scene on the ground.
Demonstrations were also reported in downtown Los Angeles, at UC Santa Cruz and UC Irvine.
A throng marching in Oakland chanted, “Who’s got the power? We got the power.”
Protests in the Bay Area city centered downtown and also saw a march along Highway 24, where a woman was struck by an SUV. She was rushed to the hospital with “major injuries,” California Highway Patrol Sgt. Matt Langford told the San Francisco Chronicle.
Small fires in Oakland also prompted the closure of a Bay Area Rapid Transit station.
In downtown L.A., anger simmered as a crowd gathered near City Hall. Some property was defaced, including a fence scrawled with graffiti insulting Trump.
About 200 people demonstrated near Cal State Los Angeles and another 50 were at Pershing Square, said LAPD Officer Norma Eisenman. There were no arrests.
But the mood was more buoyant at the president-elect’s star on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood, where a small crowd of about 30 Trump supporters gathered about 1 a.m. They posed for pictures and chanted with delight.
“This is our president,” they cheered as they tried to shout down a small band of counter-protesters.
The crowd, many of them wearing the candidate’s signature “Make America Great Again” hats, chanted “USA” several times.
Two Los Angeles police officers were posted nearby and moved the crowd apart at one point to return wooden construction materials on top of the spot. The wood was installed recently after Trump’s star was defaced.
Diane Mendez, 23, a Trump supporter who volunteered at a polling place, said she came to celebrate what she saw as a turning point.
“He said he would bring jobs back to America. We all need jobs,” Mendez said. “Who doesn’t need jobs?”
At USC, students rallied around the statue of Tommy Trojan, located in the center of the private university’s campus in South Los Angeles. One Twitter user described it as an “open forum,” with members of the USC community sharing reactions on Trump’s election.

Breaking Trump piñata s, waving Meskin flags, and saying this is not my president.
The Raiders are trying to swing a deal in which they move into a brand new stadium in Las Vegas. I hope they do because it's not a long drive from where I live so I could go and see them play without having to endure the Chargers at Qualcomm or the loonies in NorCal.

Let them, but only on a county by county vote allowing those who don't want to leave to break away like West Virginia did. They can become Alta California or Pacifica. Who knows if they'll make it, but they'll need to import their energy, food, and water from elsewhere.

Unless you use a stake and close your ears to the entreaty to be welcoming and inclusive (which is a form of taqqiya) that demorats always use when they are defeated, you cannot stop these parasites on productive society. They do not do the same thing when you are holding the whip hand (remember Champ's "elections have consequences") or the Reid nuclear option to pass ACA. Or Pelosi's moronic smile as she said you have to pass the bill to know what's in it. The are one-way bastards, and have infected the body politic of the Republic to near destruction.....crush them.

That map is a county-level map of which ones went with Trump and which went with Clinton. Note that any counties in large cities went for Clinton, while the rest went with Trump.
#14
With regard to the map that Bright Pebbles posted, before y'all get too upset at those of us who live on the coasts please remember there are those of us here who voted for Trump. We're outnumbered in our little enclaves but we're here so please don't nuke us all. Just because I love the ocean doesn't mean I'm a Democrat.

Remember that the map is county-wide and not adjusted for population. The urban counties with cities have a much larger population that is "under-represented" in this particular map.

Yep, Ship. The blue is the very poorest counties (migrant farm workers, inner cities, cotton belt, Indian reservations,) and the very richest (some state capitals, rich districts in big cities, richest suburbs.)

I am a bad person, I have really enjoyed the rage, whining, weeping and misery of Clinton supporters today and I fully expect to enjoy it for some time.

It's really very easy to explain. Everyone, whether genetically, or whatever, has the yearning and a sense of the divine, God, or strong spiritual connection with something beyond us mere humans. And that is a good thing. But when you are waiting for the human Messiah, you project the spiritual and divine on Dear Leader. And when Dear Leader comes up short, you are devastated. Look at kings that were considered gods, look at Stalin, Hitler, Jim Jones, Bernie Sanders. They were just human. What a let down. Well, gotta Man and Woman up and get on with life and learn a lesson. Or climb in the freezer and be a snowflake.

[FOXNEWS] Sunshine State voters have given former Gov. Charlie Crist the second shot in Florida politics that he’s long sought.
Crist, a Republican-turned-independent-turned-Democrat, beat incumbent Rep. David Jolly on Tuesday in the race to represent the 13th Congressional District, helping Democrats in the mission to make slight inroads into the Republican House majority.
The 60-year-old Crist, who was governor from 2007 to 2011, ran for the Senate as a Republican in 2010 but lost in the primary to the eventual general election winner, future Sen. Marco Rubio – who was victorious again Tuesday in his own re-election bid.

[PHILADELPHIA.CBSLOCAL] The Philadelphia DA’s Election Fraud Task force responded to dozens of voter calls today. But after weeks of rumors about possible voter intimidation, the day went rather smoothly.
Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams brief news hounds Tuesday afternoon.
"We have had no founded calls of voter intimidation or voter fraud in the city of Philadelphia," he said.
His task force of 70 ADA responded to 68 calls, including 13 complaints of Electioneering and 15 of illegal voter assistance. Williams also received reports about poll watchers, some from out of town, at polling places throughout the city.
"There is nothing illegal about going around the city, polling place to polling place to observe what’s happening."

[DAILYCALLER] Democratic National Committee interim chairwoman Donna Brazile has already lost her contributor contract with CNN for leaking questions from a CNN town hall to the Clinton campaign. Monday night’s WikiLeaks release of emails from the personal account of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta reveals Brazile sent even more questions ahead of the event, one that went to Hillary Clinton, the other was asked of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders.
On the day before the event, Brazile sent the following under the heading “UNIONS.”
Secretary Clinton, yesterday in St. Louis, you spoke at carpenters and others “who built this nation.”
Both you and Senator Sanders depend on big union support. President Obama pushed for a massive infrastructure bill that would mean millions of jobs for in this area. Yet many of these trade unions have locked out Blacks and other minorities for years. Will you call a meeting with them before November, and if you win, when you are president, to demand that the trade unions stop freezing Blacks and others from these good paying jobs?
The official transcript of the town hall on CNN’s website has Roland Martin, one of the moderators, saying:
Secretary Clinton, yesterday you were in St. Louis, and you talked about carpenters and the rebuilding of the country, the folks who built this nation.
And, both you and Senator Sanders have significant union support, yet many of the trade unions that — we walk about built the country, they’ve locked out black folks and other minorities for decades. Would you, even right now, and even as president, call a meeting with the trade unions and say it’s time for you to open up those doors and bring in more African-Americans and Hispanics, and others be because those are high-paying jobs. And, if we keep saying rebuild America with a huge infrastructure and billions of dollars, they’re the ones who are going to do it. And, black folks and others are going to be left on the outside looking in.
