Is it true that Military and absentee votes were not counted?

If so, how can they declare a president?Is it true that Military and absentee votes were not counted?
yes,


Typically they aren't counted unless the precinct tallies are extremely close. The reason being, that statistically they won't move a state's electoral votes in most instances.


HOWEVER, I completely agree that on democratic principles ALL votes should be counted. Heck I'll go farther:


1- Presidential campaigns should be limited to 60 days before the election


2- Polls should be masked 10 days before the election. Typically, if a state is shown to be leaning one way or another, voters who would vote against the drift of the state won't even bother to vote.


3- Military/Absentee voters should be given the option of voting early. ALSO procedures, deadlines, and standard ballots should be FEDERALIZED for military members stationed overseasIs it true that Military and absentee votes were not counted?
That is a fallacy that seems to surface about every 4 years. Absentee and Military votes are counted, assuming they are sent in on time and not lost by the postal service. I am aware that Algore tried to keep military votes from being counted for some nebulous reason, but he didn't get his way.
No, that's absolute rubbish. Anyone who says so should post a source proving it. The Democrats already have a clear majority either way.





It never fails - after each election, so many people have to be sore losers about their party not winning. Give it a rest, you can't win them all. Better luck in 2012.
There's a very long history of disenfranchising our military men and women, and big surprise, dems dont care





they actually cheer it as karma or deserved





despicable
Even if McCain took all the absentee votes there wouldn't be enough to change the outcome. Obama won by to broad of a margin. Remember how close Kerry and Bush were? At that time it was much closer.
In Ohio the absentee and early votes were counted first.
My husbands in Iraq and many didn't even get their voting materials there, I am very disappointed.
yup its true-----------------------:-)
it is true and should matter
