So, will there be investigations and (hopefully) arrests coming from this?
Thank You for exposing this, Fits. Hard to imagine this happening in this day and time without the backing of a powerful political machine like the one in Columbia/Richland County or the Lexington Crime Ring.
Seriously hoping it will.
I called you said the election committee asked the Hackett guy did he have 30 voters that he brought with him to say they tried and couldn’t or were forced to vote for someone else. Appealing right? Didn’t ask but what about the election commissioner on site? Heard he didn’t know either but but afternoon he did. Sorry but it sounds like Lexington Politics as usual. The Swansea Toilet Ring, sounds like it.
It is going to appeals. Love the Swansea Toilet Bowl Ring name. It is a fitting description. Hopefully we can ‘flush’ out the bad guys.
After all of the voter fraud talk, this is what you come up with? An angry fist full of anecdotes and innuendo concerning a contest of less than 125 voters in the podunct town of Swansea. Please.
Hey you. Its important to the people, all 835. Do you think the bad guys are just bad in Swansea? No, its wider spread than that.
Free water? Free WATER!?!? It used to be pints of whiskey and packs of Kools. How far we have fallen! The End of Civilization As We Know It is nigh…

Obligatory Trading Places clip.
Honestly, there were some real weirdos at Brennan Elementary yesterday, staring us down with the worst looks on their faces, one standing literally in the shadows with the same pen and paper deal. Not friendly, but scowling and weird. The woman at the desk with the laptop looked absolutely miserable, sneering and bored and like it was the most effort in the world to look our names up. Hudloan Devine had sent over a care package for the poll workers, with her name prominently written on the bag. guess we know who they work for. Gone apparently are the days of helpful professionalism at the polls. I’ll be volunteering next year, if Lillian McBribe will allow a white woman work at the polls. Based on what I’ve seen middle class whites are not a part of Benji’s ‘One Columbia’ propaganda.
NOBODY wrote in TBG???
*Fumes*
I told you to change your name to “X” or “XXX”.
If he would have changed his name to “EBT for everyone” he would have been elected hands down.
TBG, sorry about that my friend but, well, you just aren’t ETHNIC enough! For example, it was once reported that a black, lesbian nun would be a shoo-in for president.
TBG, you may be interested this, and I’ll repost the previous two articles for you. Folks joke about write-in candidates but here is a story from Alabama. Lowell Barron(D) became the first write-in candidate for state senator to win. He became the most powerful senator in the state. He did many, many good things for his district (which includes a portion of East Huntsville). But he became greedy and arrogant and after serving 25 years he was defeated by an unknown upstart, Shadrack McGill(R) in the last election despite using dirty tactics. Today Barron is awaiting trial for ethics and campaign violations, among other juicy things. Here are the two articles…..

Oh, come on! They are just aspiring to be like Columbia and Richland County! Who are you to deny them buses with nobody on them, insane asylums turned to a high end hood (right across the street from low end hoods) and a water system millions in debt?
C’mon, Swansea! Show Columbia you can follow their lead!
Un fricking believable and it’s Republicans who want to keep folks from voting! Oh wait, Dims don’t want to keep folks (the people, not Will) from votin’, they just wanna make sure they vote right…
lets list it:
1. bribery
2. unlawful to procure votes by bribery
3.threatening, intimidating, abusing voters
4. procure votes by threats
5. improper assistance
6. willful neglect or corrupt conduct by managers
7. illegal conduct at elections
unlawful inducement to file or withdraw
8. vandalizing or removing political campaign signs
So Democrates don’t mind any of that if the people then vote right. WOW
You sonsofbitches really hate it when black people use tactics you originated, don’t you?
Who’s “you people” racist?
I think you know, asshole.
Some white guy was sitting in my precinct last election, not a poll worker, eyeballing voters. A Republican poll watcher, it turns out (I asked). I’m betting if I had taken his picture and sent it to Fits as an example of voter intimidation, it never would have seen the light of day.
I completely disagree. FITS was opposed to the photo ID voting law. You don’t know what you’re talking about.
I don’t think FITS has to worry. Hardly anyone checked and the ones they looked at were given just a glance.

Jesus!
You shoulda got your daddy to smite him.
Pics or it didn’t happen.
Jesus H. Christ speaks the truth – and I dare any of you heathens to say otherwise!!
Hey the crooked mayor is white. The good guy is bad.
Actually a white mayor is manipulating black voters to vote against a black man running for mayor.
At least he’s not wearing a beret or carrying a night stick.
THAT, would have guaranteed him protection from USDOJ.
Study: Americans Safe from Gun Violence Except in Schools, Malls, Airports, Movie Theatres, Workplaces, Streets, Own Homes
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) — A new study released today indicates that Americans are safe from the threat of gun violence except in schools, malls, airports, movie theatres, workplaces, streets, and their own homes.
Also: highways, turnpikes, libraries, places of worship, parks, universities, restaurants, post offices, and cars.
Plus: driveways, garages, gyms, stores, military bases — and a host of other buildings, structures, and sites.
National Rifle Association C.E.O. Wayne LaPierre applauded the study, saying that it reinforced his organization’s long-held position that the United States does not need additional gun laws. “This study makes it abundantly clear that Americans are in no danger of gun violence except in these isolated four hundred and thirteen places,” he said.
He added that he hoped that the study would spark a conversation “about the root cause of mass shootings: people who recklessly show up at places where they could be shot at.”
Those gun-free zones are so frickin’ safe, now aren’t they? Schools, military bases (how ludicrous), and other places. Active shooters stay away from thos places when plotting their evil deeds, don’t they?
This goes on all over South Carolina!
Time then to stop it.
The places that I for sure know of it going on is run by liberal Democrats and it is tough living where 90% of the population are Democrats and they have no compunction about cheating!
No compunction about cheating or lies or just about anything.
While I don’t think cheating is limited to Democrats, cause Republicans cheat almost equally as good. The answer is the same as hers. It is time to stop it.
And the solution is ……….?
wait just a minute…. is that… is that a BLACK man? I call *that* voter suppression. They won’t let me open carry into the voting booth,. but they let a BLACK man carry around a CLIPBOARD! The double standard here is stupefying!
Crooked election, crooked Mayor, crooked all the way around. Can we stop them? Vote them out, well try when the poll manager is a candidates Sister, her daughter in law and like the ugly guy in the pic, her brother. BUTTler is in Ray’s pocket. The ‘old yes man” Woodrow don’t even know what’s going on but on the take ohhhhhh yeah. So vote them out, why don’t the cops try arresting them?
Correction the poll managers in one precinct was all kin or connected to each other.
