Can someone tell me how it's not unconstitutional to require residency of 180 days before getting a voters registration? Got a buddy who moved from Jacksonville FL to Maryland. Here in my county in Alabama it's only 30 days. So now he can't vote unless he drives to FL. And that might not be legal since he's really no longer a resident.

Dear Greg T:
Doesn't anyone suspect something fishy, preposterous and illegal when in 2012, there were 59 voting divisions in Philadelphia where ROMNEY DIDN'T GET EVEN ONE VOTE? Indeed, in those areas, 19,605 votes were recorded for Obama and none for Romney? And there were nine precincts in Cleveland where ROMNEY DIDN'T GET EVEN ONE VOTE.

Nobody seems to give a shit, except for those of us paying attention. There are three types of voters these days. You have your selfies, who care about nothing but getting free shit. You have parrots, who do nothing but follow whatever their teachers tell them, and are completely incapable of an original thought. And there are those of us who really pay attention to the world around us and are concerned about the wrong turns being made in this country. Problem is, we are vastly outnumbered.

... but outnumbered 19,605-to-zero? What are the odds against that happening? How could you get every person out of nearly 20,000 to agree on anything? And wouldn't a 19,605-to-0 vote for Obama be RACIST TO THE UMPTEENTH DEGREE?
Those areas you are talking about were almost entirely African-American and Democrats.

“The precincts that gave Romney no votes or very few votes were nearly all-minority. President Obama received 93 percent of the African-American vote, according to the national exit poll, while Romney received 6 percent. With that kind of backing for Obama, it is almost inevitable that some black precincts would show 100 percent backing for him.”
Besides, Sabato said, “If you were going to steal an election, why would you concentrate your efforts on precincts where your candidate was already going to receive nearly all the votes? Wouldn’t you logically go to precincts where the pickings weren’t so slim?”

Obama's dominance was mostly confined to largely African-American areas of West and North Philadelphia. In the third division of Philadelphia's 28th Ward, for example, 94 percent of the residents are black, and the 2010 census recorded only seven white residents. Voter registration lists showed only 12 registered Republicans in the division, none of whom voted for Romney or responded to the Inquirer's requests for comment.
Perhaps it's not so strange after all - unless you just hate Obama.

You forgot about the party voters. The ones that vote for a party and will never change regardless of what is put in front of them.
I see this more in local elections.

Of course we hate Bam Bam. It's that stupid ole double standard thing, ya know? If we don't vote for Obama it's only because we're racist. If someone votes for Obama simply because he claims to be black...well....thats just fine, right? Nevermind the fact that ballot boxes were stuffed with corpse votes. Nevermind the fact that hes tripled the national debt, fucked up the healthcare systen, gutted our military and is now arming our enemies. Yeah, its safe to say we hate the spineless pussy.

Voter fraud has become another point of contention in the US, largely divided among political lines. The Republican Party in general, is in favor of stricter voter ID laws, and often makes claim to rampant voter ID fraud. Stories abound regarding alleged voter fraud, and these include the anomalous “dead person votes.” While appalling at first, it turns that these generally tend to actually have benign explanations. As the Brennan Center for Justice found in The Truth About Voter Fraud, these “cases of voter fraud” are generally nothing more than:
Another bogus bit is being spread about St. Lucie County, Fla.
Claim: In St. Lucie County, FL, there were 175,574 registered eligible voters but 247,713 votes were cast.
The National SEAL Museum, a polling location in St. Lucie County, FL had a 158% voter turnout.
It’s simply not true that there were tens of thousands more votes cast than voters available in St. Lucie County. Whoever first started this falsehood misread a St. Lucie election board document showing that 249,095 “cards” were cast, and registered voters totaled 175,554.
But the supervisor of elections website explains that a “card” is one page, and the full “ballot” contained two pages. Total cards are not double the number of voters, as not every voter cast both pages (or “cards”).
St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections website: Note* — Turnout percentages will show over 100% due to a two page ballot. The tabulation system (GEMS) provides voter turnout as equal to the total cards cast in the election divided by the number of registered voters. Also note that some voters chose not to return by mail the second card containing the amendments.
A more detailed document of the county’s votes cast shows total “votes” at 123,301.
The email author makes the same mistake with “cards” versus “ballots” in claiming that one St. Lucie County polling location, the National SEAL Museum, had a “158% voter turnout.” Not true. Of the jurisdiction’s 2,756 registered voters, 2,243 votes were cast, according to the Supervisor of Elections’ official results. A total of 4,469 “cards” were cast of the two-page ballot. Obama, by the way, got 33.62 percent of the vote at that polling location.

It seems the military high commands hate to see the word 'gutted' when used with their forces and have consistently denied that.
http://www.npr.org/2016/04/29/476048024/fact-check-has-president-obama-depleted-the-military
Pentagon leaders bristle at the idea their force has been "gutted" or is a "disaster." The U.S. remains far and away the world's foremost military power.
But spending is down; the force is smaller than when Obama took office and its equipment is aging. And, indeed, military leaders have spoken out about what they call the national-security dangers associated with climate change.
_______________
Defense officials don't dispute that the military costs a lot — but, they argue, taxpayers get a lot for what they buy. Defense Secretary Ash Carter and other leaders have tried to shy away from responding to comments by Trump and other candidates, but occasionally they get pulled in.
That was the case earlier this year when Air Force Gen. Paul Selva, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was asked about whether the U.S. military had, in fact, been "gutted." No, he argued. If it's smaller than it could be, it's still very powerful.

Dear MI2AZ:
True enough ... BUT even so, there's a small percentage of registered Republicans in each of those districts, and what are the odds that EVERY ONE OF THEM either stayed home or decided to vote for Obama?

Dear bbfreeburn:
Perhaps some of those registered Republicans DIDN'T DARE tell anyone that they voted for Romney, even if they actually did (or attempted to vote for him).
