Census Double Counting Democrat Strongholds?

Something unusual happened the other day. A friend of mine who happens to be a libertarian minded individual living in a relatively safe Democratic stronghold in the city of Tacoma, posted to Facebook that, oddly, after filling out her Census form and sending it in, she received another identical form with instructions to fill it out and submit. It took about 1.5 milliseconds for my brain to put two and two together and come to the conclusion that the Census must be attempting to double count in Democratic stronghold districts in order to gain additional representation.

A google search for news regarding reports of duplicate forms indicates that, indeed, dense urban areas (traditional liberal havens) are being sent two identical forms, and we, the people, are being reassured that the software and data entry is intelligent enough to NOT double count the entries for a single household.

I have to wonder about this coincidence of 'double counting' in the dense areas... I have to wonder about the software that is counting the data - is it smart enough to discard multiple submissions from the same address?

In an attempt to avoid coming across as alarmist, I do have to raise the question on this most important issue - the very make-up of representation is based directly off the results of these forms... and if, for some reason, the forms ARE double counted (even though you are advised, not instructed, to discard the form if you have already mailed the original in), is the Democratic Majority attempting to stack the decks in favor of redistricting and reapportionment based on these erroneous results.

Any thoughts?

President Bush lets Cat out of the Bag about 2000?

Reports are starting to circulate that could put the entire political world on it's head.

A secretly recorded conversation between President George W. Bush and an as yet unidentified voice seems to imply that George Bush's campaign had knowledge of "a fix" in the 2000 elections.

Having listened to the audio on a Reuters feed, Bush's voice is very clear, and some of the claims he makes could possibly land him in the middle of an impeachment hearing.

Bush can clearly be heard whispering "I had no idea they were serious, but when the court ruling was announced I knew they really fixed it"

The release of this audio puts us into the midst of a constitutional crisis. George Bush (apparently) won in 2004 legitimately, so he is the President... but if he had knowledge of a rigged election, then he was not the legitimate leader of the US for the first term.

I am in shock right now trying to imagine what implications this could have, now in 2008.

I need to hear from someone who knows something about Constitutional Law on this one!

All I can say is WOW!

SCANDAL on Romney & FoxNews - Update NO

UPDATE: Turns out that this guy was there for voting trend. Though there seems to be some back story on this, I feel that it is unlikely that this entire room of voters would be undecided, and then ALL come out for Romney... Chalk it up to MSM paranoia, I suppose! This is me eating Crow! Thanks for the comments and information on this story!

After the Fox News Presidential Forum in NH yesterday, Frank Luntz's had a panel of undecided voters who were supposed to have been watching the debate and then provide some feedback.

I felt what we in the Quality Engineering world call the "pinch", the feeling you get when something doesn't seem right, when all the voters where undecided coming in, and 98% for Romney after the debate... that, with the harsh things they had to say about Huckabee's performance was more than enough for me to say... hmmm....

Behold... FoxNews has been caught Red Handed:

Turns out that there is a Paid Actor??? who appeared twice, in two different random groups of undecided voters... Both debates occured in NH, but the random group of undecided voters seems to have a little consistency with whom they pick... in fact, so consistent that they choose the same people... is this true?

What the heck are they doing!
