[quote:Anonymous Coward 26812864:MV8yMDQ0MjkzXzM0MzU2MDE5X0U5QjRFRjdD] Did anyone catch where I said that Paul was pulling 16 points in the last poll I saw. Here's one with him pulling 13 points. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2881313/posts Here's another poll showing Paul pulling 17% I think this has a lot of merit and after the way Romney and the republican party treated Paul it's very likely they just stayed home. Yet, here again, republicans are refusing to see just how much support Paul had. I find it ironic that the numbers in the polls vs how many stayed home are eerily close. This tells me if republicans want to win next time they better unleash Rand Paul on the democrats or else they have no one to blame, but themselves, again. [/quote]

It is being widely reported that there were 117 million votes cast: 60 million Obama and 57+ million for Romney.
This is down 13 million from 2008 total of 131.4 million.
In 2008 it is recorded that 100 million whites cast a vote representing 74% of the total and the minority share of the vote was 26%.
Now they are reporting out of a total of 117 million votes, whites cast 72% and minorities cast 28%.
That means that only 84 million whites voted in 2012 down 16 million from the 100 million whites who voted in 2008.
Extrapolating from that, we have to say that 3 million more minorities voted in 2012 than in 2008.
In 2010 the resident population of voting age (including aliens of voting age) was 234,564,000.
This was an increase in resident population of almost 5 million from the 2008 figure.
Yet we are expected to believe that there was a net loss of votes of 13 million representing
16 million fewer white voters and an additional 3 million minority voters.
I mean, this is just NOT BELIEVABLE
.
I refer you to a chart of all the Presidential elections from 1932 -2010. [

]
As you can see, as the population increases, the number of voters increases in every election cycle except when Clinton ran for re-election against Dole. Not a hotly contested election. Kind of a walk away for Clinton. And, even with this....the drop in voters is not near 13 million, and 16 million whites.
This turn out and loss of 16 million whites in a hotly contested election such as this one is absolutely NOT believable.
What is really going on?
