We’ve already had plenty of fun debunking S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley‘s claim about “dead voters” participating in South Carolina elections.
We knew Haley was full of it – and said so.
For those of you who missed this drama, last year Haley’s Department of Motor Vehicles (SCDMV) alleged 957 deceased South Carolinians had cast votes in the most recent statewide election.
“In my opinion, and I’m not an expert in this area, dead guys shouldn’t be allowed to vote,” Haley’s SCDMV director Kevin Shwedo said last January – less than two weeks before South Carolinians voted in a presidential primary election.
We agree dead people shouldn’t be allowed to vote (duh) … but there’s one big problem here. The “dead voters” claim was totally bunk.
After the Haley administration made this allegation, the S.C. Election Commission (SCEC) requested the names of these 957 “dead voters” – but were only give six of them. Of those six “dead voters,” SCEC director Marci Andino discovered one who died after casting an absentee ballot and five who were … wait for it … very much alive and eligible to vote. Andino’s agency eventually obtained more than 200 of the alleged “dead voters” on Haley’s list – yet no dead voters were found among these names, either.
Now comes additional evidence proving Haley’s “dead voter” claim was yet another lie from her administration …
A report prepared – but never released – by the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) confirmed Andino’s findings. This report was obtained via an open records request made by The (Columbia, S.C.) Free Times. SLED – another of Haley’s cabinet agencies – refused to comment on the report.
How convenient …
“They lied to our entire state and then they lied to our entire nation,” S.C. Rep. Bakari Sellers (D-Bamberg) told Free Times.
Yup …
But not only did Haley’s administration lie, it spent tax dollars investigating the bogus claim – then tried to bury a report exposing the scam.

It was all very REPUBLICAN of her.SC Republicans are obsessed with dead voters,voting fraud etc.,which is odd seeing as how they win most elections here.
Same with fighting those gosh-darned unions… in a right-to-work state. All of this shit is for show, and we aren’t even her target audience. She’s speaking to try and gain steam for a bigger office run, probably in her head, Prez or VP. Just like Sanford was.
I am pretty sure the “witch doctor” from Edisto Island pulled several thousand zombies from the grave to vote a straight party ticket.

You’re a Full-Fledged and Complete F^&*$#g idiot if you do not think democrats cheat and cheat BIG in elections…
I’ve posted it on here a couple times of a democrat constiuent in Florence County caught and arrested for trying to register hundreds of fraudulant voters…or Google ‘Melouise Richardson, Cincinatti voted six times for Obama’…How many of Melousies were there on election day…you simple-minded dolt…
Or: Go to a polling place that is heavilly democrat on election day and start asking questions about voter integrity. You’ll get your Stupid @$$ kicked, you brain-dead, cul-d-sac yuppie……just because you’re a lazy, no-talent, sit-at-home dumb@$$…don’t try to take us for being as completely Ignorant as you must be,….
See what I mean.Typical Republican.Tirade continues now…
I notice you Brain-Fried Idiots attack me, not the content. Yet hate to see the Truth, and you have no answer for it..
I just cannot stand to see this Dumb@$$ posing as media, and he’s as big a D@*n liar as the rest of the liberal @$$-Kissers…
Come on you can do better REPUBLICAN Now you were saying…
He already is. Apparently you have nothing to say of consequence. Sorry Neener Neener is not a comment of consequence.
And you, of course attack no one. You crack me up. If you hate FITS, stop reading it. You’re only raising your blood pressure and will probably die of a stroke in mid-insult. I’m sure he blocked you from his view a long time ago. Hey, I wonder how I can do that…
So what you’re saying is, we should disenfranchise thousands upon thousands of legitimate voters to stop one guy from voting 5 more times than he should have?
Sounds legit.
Dis-enfranchise their 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th vote, you F*#kin redneck, dolt….
Is that a racial slur?
Nope. I know a Japanese redneck. According to his wife, he’s not happy with them dumb ass orientals. True Story!!
See above post as it relates to the “Edisto witch doctor”.
Don’t mess with his mojo.
YOU BETCHA!
YOU BETCHA!
Let Allah figure it out.
Somehow you get more tiresome every time I have the displeasure of coming across your mind-numbingly repetitive posts. You have nothing new to say, not even any new insults, so maybe it’s time to give it a rest. You add nothing to any discussion. Go change your colostomy bag, change your Depends, or something else useful.
There was one dead voter who voted for Nikki Haley, me
Has to be because I don’t anyone to know I was alive and that goddamn stupid
There
Someone needs to give her a spanking. Opps! Already did…

I disagree. My father in law passed away last year and he was still on the rolls. I could of gone and voted for him bc we had his voter card. I did not do it and would not do it, but other people could easily do it.
The point is no one did.
And, how many polling stations could you go to and vote for him, with his address, over the course of the day? Would it have changed the outcome? Would 900 dead voters changed the outcome?
Do a search. Most voter fraud is done with absentee ballots. That is always a very non-secure way to vote, since there are many reasons an election office can legitimately toss out an absentee ballot and you never know about it.
Yep, try Lexington’s toss.
There’s no voter fraud. Even the ACORN business was a bunch of baloney. They were paying free agents to register voters and rather than actually sign up real voters, they made up the information. I don’t think Mickey Mouse showed up to cast a ballot for Obama.
This is just another conspiracy theory that’s been mainstreamed to explain why Republicans take a beating in Presidential elections. It couldn’t be because nobody is buying what you’re selling. Nope. So they busy themselves with voter ID legislation, limiting early voter, purging voter rolls and making college kids travel home to vote. Yeah, that’s going fix your election day problems. Oh, and a majority of Republicans polled after 2012 said they believe ACORN stole the election. It was disbanded in 2010.
The Republicans should stick to gerrymandering. It’s all they got left.

FITS and Free Times have got to decide whose @$$ to kiss: Sellers or Sheheen…???
I could see Sellers pulling an Obama on Sheheen, like they did on Hillary…It will be funny to watch their already-failed party get ripped apart by the same Devil they serve…..and then see FITS and Free Times get their stupid, liberal @$$#$ kicked on Election Day 2014….They’ll make it easy for the GOP…
Get the popcorn and Stay Tuned….as I LMAO….
GT, again with the name calling. Really not a measure of an intelligent individual. Name calling is what kids resort to when they don’t have an articulate was to express themselves…..period.
And your breath smells of curry.
YOU BETCHA!
YOU BETCHA!
Let Allah figure it out.
Indian jokes should be discurryged.
Well damn, a whole one dead person’s vote did count. I’ll be damned.
There oughta be a law! Oh, wait…

Hey FITS: you BLITHERING Idiot: Do your homework…
Florence (SC) Man Charged With Voter Fraud with 1,500 names
Florence, SC – A Florence man has been arrested on charges of using names and personal information of people – including the Florence mayor – on more than one thousand voter registration forms and turning them in to the county voter registration office.
Prosecutor Ed Clements the third says 44-year-old Terence Hines was taken into custody Wednesday on charges of forgery and multiple counts of fraudulent registration or voting.
The State Law Enforcement Division began investigating soon after Hines turned in more than 15-hundred completed forms to the Florence County Voter Registration Office last week.
Voter registration and elections director Russell Barrett says a registration form for Florence Mayor Frank Willis sent up a red flag. Barrett says he is pretty sure the mayor was already a registered voter and had been for some time.
But wasn’t he caught, right?
But you and FITS say it does not exist, idiot…
Do your homework:
Florida finds evidence of voter fraud by GOP-tied firm:http://www.salon.com/2013/03/06/florida_finds_evidence_of_voter_fraud_in_gop_tied_firm/
“A Virginia Republican and supporter of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) pleaded guilty on Tuesday to perjury and 36 counts of voter fraud.”
“Adam Ward, 28, claimed he collected more than 11,000 petition signatures for Gingrich during the Republican presidential primaries, in an effort to ensure the candidate’s embattled campaign had a spot on the state’s ballot. Over 4,000 of those petition signatures turned out to be fake, according to NBC News affiliate WVIR-TV.”
So, you’re also saying we need voter integrity laws to prevent fraud. I agree you…Is that your point???…you blithering F*#king Dumb@$$…
I’m sorry, I am a dumbass. I meant to post it where you stated: “You’re a Full-Fledged and Complete F^&*$#g idiot if you do not think democrats cheat and cheat BIG in elections…”
Hope we’re all clear now…
OOPS!
They might want to check Shealy’s list also.
T said there was fraud, not who it was perpetrated by. He is correct. GAWD THAT HUUUUURT
Too stupid to know the difference between registration fraud and voter fraud.
Operative point here Big T, is he was caught. There was no voter fraud perpetrated. There is no evidence of voter fraud influencing an election in SC or anywhere for that matter. Its just Republican BS to justify voter suppression laws.
“no evidence of voter fraud influencing an election”…LMAO…and it Like: “depends on what the definition of IS..is…
Your Lying and Corruption, like your Racism, is a terminal disease of the soul. It may take some time, but it will rot you, completely…
Please produce one single case in SC where it was shown voter fraud influenced an election. Facts do continue to confuse you, and facts do matter.
There is no evidence of voter fraud in SC. Get over it. Its a Republican fantasy. Minorities understand now what is going on. They know what Republicans are up to. I think they will go out of their way to overcome the road blocks Republicans are putting up, just so they can vote against the people who tried to take away their right to vote.
And while you may be confused on who the racist are, no one else is.
Any particular reason you don’t want to give a link or even a citation for that?
Well our great voting savior Alan Clemmons winds up with egg on his face again (along with the Governor). Mr. Clemmons is being shown for the slimy ALEC puppet he is. And if you need additional information on Rep. Clemmons’ veracity, just ask the Greenville County GOP Executive Committee who just censored him for his shenanigans during the State GOP convention.
Nice (and expected) to see the Tin-Foil Helmet Brigade is in full disciple-ship under FITS and the nutjobs in the corrupt democrat party…
Big idio”T”, aren’t you the Commander in Chief of the “Tin Foil Battallion”?
YOU BETCHA!
YOU BETCHA!
Let Allah figure it out.

95% of the electorate votes like zombies anyway…what’s the big deal?
Yeah, you’re right. You 5-percenters (Liberal-Tarians) GET IT…
You are the Lindsey Grahams, John McCains and FITS that media-led, mis-guided Republicans empower…and you blow it for all of us…
95% of the electorate votes like zombies anyway…what’s the big deal?
You liberals, democrats and Haley haters are painting yourselves into a corner of stupidity to attempt to claim there is not substantial voter fraud.
You can spin, find some report to claim or stretch any fact, but there really NEEDS to be voter ID law. Democrats are subverting democracy…and the media Wants that as much as the corrupt democrats want it….
You are delusional and you’re on the wrong side of justice.
Under your logic we need a law to prevent alien anal probes of the South Carolina citizenry. I mean, there’s no evidence of it happening…but THERE’S ALSO NO EVIDENCE THAT IT’S NOT HAPPENING AMIRITE!?!?
There’s lots of evidence of voter fraud. Some referenced in this comment section.
But like Benghazi, Melouise Richardson, IRS persecutions, targeting reporters families, Vermin Gosnell, fast and furious, Ft. Hood Shooter, NBP…you’re too F*#^in Blind or too F#@*in Stupid to admit it…
Actually that would be a good law. Allow me to refresh your memory of the last anal probe we received.

Wow! Someone ate their Wheaties…
I wonder if you even have a job since you troll this and every story. Do you have a job????
He is a pathetic angry troll with no life. Sad, isn’t it?
Yet this nonsense lives on in winger land. Heard it discussed on Fox News during after the last election despite being debunked. More recently, I heard a poli sci professor here in the Lowcountry tell an auditorium of students that there was irrefutable evidence of voter fraud and cited this episode. He’s frequently cited in conservatives publications, which I find ironic considering he apparently doesn’t read the newspaper. They next discussed the impending use of death panels to snuff out grandma. So, you get the drift.

It doesn’t matter, with the SCOTUS to back them Republicans are now free to engage in their next round of voter suppression laws. So minorities are now on notice, I am on my way back big time and I have a Republican army behind me. So get ready to get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged.
