• See, Ron Paul could have won if they got the chance to vote.

  • See? If Paul had actually HAD any votes, he would have received the nomination. Both times he tried. But guess what? HE NEVER HAD THE VOTES! He is not Presidential material and even some of the dumbest voters recognize that. What does that say about your continued worship of him?

  • That's stupid. How do you know they weren't all Obama voters? Or Romney Voters? Another Crowley fail.

    • Wouldn't be the first time Paul supporters were barred from voting.

      Also, there's very few if any "Romney voters". They are just the votes he stole from Paul.

• I understand that voting is vital but seriously, I don't know many people who would wait 6 hours in line! For that matter, if you have a job, children, or even need to eat and pee, those kinds of lines are ridiculous. Not everyone predicts that their state will halve the number of voting sites, and therefore vote early. I am angry for those disenfranchised because they couldn't stand in line. Whoever they would have voted for, they deserved to be able to vote in a reasonable time period. I have waited up to 2 hours tovote, but this was beyond belief.

  • I haven't been to a polling place in a couple decades now. I guess these are the voters who don't have a local address.

    • In my city, the location of early voting polls changes every election,no matter how minor. So generally I vote ON election day. I don't usually have a problem there, though the last time I tried to vote early was the time I had to wait in line for 2 hours.

• FTA:
  Lee County, in southern Florida, had a precinct that didn't close until 2:54 a.m. the following day.

  I guess they had trouble getting all those Obama voters into the state on time!

• This after 10 days of early voting. We can survive Obama but not the electorate who puts him in office twice.
