voter intimidation

When you go to vote and a hate group like Black Panthers is standing outside the door with military year on.

Philadelphia had several cases of voter intimidation during the 2012 presidential election. There were also suspicions of voter fraud since every single vote cast in the city was for Obama.

voter stupidity

The #1 reason political ads have basically remained unchanged for several years. Each election season candidates go on TV and, in a soft, dramatic voice, tell the viewers how much they love you, and how much they love your children, and how they want a wonderful future for you, and for your children, and golly, I want to be the one to do it. And the soft music plays in the background, while we watch a montage of images of children and elderly people. Then those who are the most gullible voters sit back and think, "wow, this person really must care about me and my children. I mean, listen to the music!"

So, without any careful study of the candidates, they vote them into office, and when the now elected official starts pursuing special interest paybacks and forgetting about you and your children, the voter is stunned and outraged.

The #2 reason is voting down party lines, regardless of the qualifications of the candidate. To flippantly vote for a candidate based on party affiliation is not only wholly irresponsible, but shows blatant ignorance towards the percentage of voters who attempt to educate themselves during election years. After all, we're trying to elect the least evil candidate.

The Erie County budget disaster so outraged the community, that voters put most of the legislators back into office the next election year. Um..., now wait a minute. That sounds like voter stupidity. When we asked a voter, he said "well, I'm a Democrat, and even though he is one also and he was equally responsible for this mess, well, I just voted down the party line, you see. Plus, his commercial said he really liked me and my family."

voter fraud

A method of winning an election whereby votes are illegaly discounted, reducing the number of votes against the candidate. Or winning an election by illegaly adjusting the number of votes upwards so a winning candidate has more votes than they actually received.

George W. Bush became the current occupant of the White House through voter fraud.

voter fatigue

When voters are tired of voting for the same person year after year.

Scottie: Hey Mike, they robbed you of the MVP this year.
MJ: It's voter fatigue Scottie. They just don't feel like giving me the trophy this year. I'll get that Finals MVP though.

Voter Dwelling Units

Typical infill real estate development found in nearly all large cities. This is seen where a classic residential house/lot is scraped off and replaced with multi-family development. This is a strategy to densify the voter roll.

Look how many Voter Dwelling Units (VDUs) are going up in this neighborhood honey. They’re just jamming voters into VDUs now.
