Clearly they are trying to steal the election for Obama by counting every vote.

How does this happen, seriously?

Were these absentee ballots....or what?

NY still used lever machines....so it's not like they could otherwise find votes somewhere.

Wait...so what if in Florida in March 2001 they "found" 900 votes for Gore and 200 for Bush? Would that have made Bush an illegal president?

Do you know how many controversies thee were about Florida in 2000? That includes both sides saying votes were not counted.

This is brought to you by the state that voted for John L. Kerry.

my sources tell me that something like this is going to happen in Florida, except instead of 4-month-old results they're from 8.5-ish years ago.
