The allegations of fraud in this NH primary:

Hillary's war profiteer boosters have every motive to protect their investment. - manicmarvin, on 01/10/2008, -1/+8I would look at corrupt ***** throwing ballots in the trash.

- sjl127, on 01/09/2008, -4/+8Polls don't mean a thing, they're junk statistics the way they're run.
- limitGov, on 01/10/2008, -0/+4Looks like there was possible vote fraud going on in New Hampshire...
http://www.digg.com/2008_us_elections/Ron_Paul_Vot ... - facttech, on 01/10/2008, -0/+3I disagree with the author's assertion that such a mismatch between polls and tallies is unprecedented; Ohio 2004 comes to mind. I do agree with the statement that we need to know why.
- Totalchaos02, on 01/10/2008, -0/+3The polls seem pretty accurate for Edwards and the rest of the Democrats, they weren't even far off for Obama, but Clinton seems to have gotten the biggest boost for this 'blunder'. For the record, I am an Obama supporter and I admit I am stunned/angry/amazed that he lost (then again a week ago he was 12 points behind so I suppose I shouldn't be to unhappy) but I am not normally prone to jumping on Conspiracy Theory bandwagons. All that said, I still find this whole situation suspicious.
- LLamaStar, on 01/10/2008, -0/+3I blame diebold.
- badassninja, on 01/10/2008, -0/+3NO, you have to proclaim it!
***** YOU FRANK!!! - smacksaw, on 01/10/2008, -0/+2I like how he says "empirical data"...again, a lie of omission is still a lie. You can have all of the empirical data, but when you pick and choose it like a buffet and don't present (or even solicit for) comprehensive data, it really doesn't matter how accurate the data is when you've omitted too many categories to find the truth as opposed to tailoring the data to support an answer that is predetermined.
Anything is a possibility (or probability) when you don't have enough data to constrain or narrow your theory into finding the truth. - revo764, on 01/10/2008, -0/+2Diebold FFS!
- scottknick, on 01/09/2008, -2/+3As he points out, the same polls in Iowa were accurate, and they called the NH Republican primary very accurately. It just broke down on the Democratic side, and broke down in double-digit margins -- too large to be explained by vote tampering. My guess is that a large number of registered Democrats were taken aback by Obama in Iowa but reverted to Hillary on the way to the polls. Let's not forget that a 10-point lead that develops overnight can dissolve just as quickly.
- DRINKxREDxBULL, on 01/10/2008, -0/+1Someone should tell that to Thomas E. Dewey (election of 1948).
- Big1984Brother, on 01/10/2008, -1/+2The funny thing is that polls used to be somewhat reliable, until recent elections. Something has happened to either the polls, or to the elections.
- Big1984Brother, on 01/10/2008, -0/+1Don't underestimate the importance of anti-black-muslim sentiment in America. I'm not saying that I agree with it, but it could cost the dems a few pecentage points. And this brings me to an interesting question. Whyis it that both parties seem dedicated to nominating the most despicable candidate possible? As I look to the future I see an evil specter starting back at me.... I see Americans having to choose between Hillary and Giuliani, Obama and Romney, or maybe even Edwards and Huckabee. Just shoot me now.
- gwayo, on 01/10/2008, -2/+2Hillary didn't rig it; the company, whose interests are for the Republican Party to win, wants her as the nominee. Anti-Clinton sentiment is about the only thing that will unify the party and bring zealous R voters out in droves to the polls.
- lobster1, on 01/09/2008, -4/+2I would look at the impact of last-day phone calls from the Clinton campaign and their supporters.
- drachemorder, on 01/09/2008, -7/+3I blame the French.
