I didn't trust Jlallen for the information. It is a fact that the same voters are logged as having voted in both primaries which is not legal in that state.

Who told you? I am sure you have a link to confirm your position. Please provide. TIA.

Now the only question is if someone else or some organization voted in a legitimate voter's name in a different primary. It isn't too difficult to grasp.

First of all, its been 15 days since the election........what is McDaniels saying these days? Not much. By now a decent app could have figured out which Dems voted in both primaries. Oh wait...do they have computers or cell phones in MS? Even if they don't, the teapers could have checked manually by cross referencing the polls to see if there was a strong basis for their claims. So what have the teapers been saying? Not much.

And lets not forget the teapers had poll watchers stationed at the polls to make sure poll workers were turning away those Dems who had voted in the Dem primary. So there's that.

Besides this is the way MS rolls..........allegedly, even McDaniel has rolled that way in the past:

Everyone knew before the election who was allowed to vote — basically anyone who did not vote in the Democratic primary a few weeks ago. This is longstanding practice; heck, McDaniel himself apparently voted in a Democratic primary in 2003.

So the idea that the courts are going to come in and subtract an uncertain number of "illegal" Democratic votes cast presumably for Cochran seems most unlikely.


But what's really hilarious about your's and jlallen's assertions...........most pol analysts think the basis for a McDaniels lawsuit won't be about the primary voting but by this crazy provision in MS voting law:

..........is citing MS Code § 23-15-575 (2013), which states:

No person shall be eligible to participate in any primary election unless he intends to support the nominations made in the primary in which he participates.

I guess that means we have to wait until November to see if the primary voters vote the 'right way' in the general election. And if they don't? Do they get a slap on their hands, or across their butts, or do they have to do 100 hail marys? Let me know what legal beagle jlallen says.
