Looks like Barack Obama is advocating Democrats steal the election for him:
QUESTIONER: I would just like to know what you can say to reassure us that this election will not be rigged or stolen?
SEN. BARACK OBAMA: Well, I tell you what, it helps in Ohio that we’ve got Democrats in charge of the machines…
Ohio Republican Party Chairman Bob Bennett released the following statement in response to Obama’s comments:
“Barack Obama’s outrageous statements today basically amounted to an endorsement of vote-rigging. That may be how you win elections back in Chicago, but Ohioans tend to frown upon the idea of massive voter fraud, especially when it’s floated by a presidential candidate. Jennifer Brunner’s meddling with Ohio’s elections system and her firing of elections officials for political reasons has been disturbing enough, but it now seems the Obama-Brunner team are openly wearing the same partisan jersey. Ohioans will not stand for this blatant disregard for the integrity of our elections system.”
We’re not going to let Obama steal this election. They tried to steal Florida in 2000. They tried to steal Ohio in 2004. There is reasonable proof that Kerry did steal Wisconsin in 2004. Make no mistake about it. Democrats are already brewing up schemes to steal this election from John McCain.
