    A Maine official says he's aware of numerous unknown black people coming to rural areas and voting there in a sketchy way:

    Shaddap, Charlie. :dayton:

    My town is as bumfuck as it gets, and we have the old lady with the notebook who checks off your name.

    No way "unknown black people", are just gonna wander the fuck into the polls.

    Jibes with the story of unions bussing in armadas of Somalians to vote without proof of eligibility.

    Not saying that either story is true, but they're consistent with each other.

    What else do I need? It was an observation, not a lead-in to an argument. Both stories might be true. Both stories might be home-baked ca-ca. I don't know either way, I'm not sayin' either way. But they're consistent with each other. That's all.

    Yup. Republicans are incapable of considering whether a plausible mechanism by which their paranoid delusions might not be paranoid delusions actually exists. Their paranoid delusions about voter fraud, climate scientist cover-ups, Agenda 21, Obama's birth place, etc. are decidedly antiscientific delusions.

    Probably because the white people don't hang out with them. :shrug:

    There are indeed :ohnoes: black people :ohnoes: living in rural Maine. It may be a small percentage, but they're there. Auburn is 0.59% black, which would mean there are around 140 black people living there.

    I would like to know what other "pockets" he suspects of not having black people. I would also like to know why the Maine GOP Chairman has access to the addresses of these newly registered voters.
