Odd percentages in Wisconsin
Man... I'm usually not one to post about this, but I found the results in Wisconsin to be quite odd. As others mentioned, the media declared McCain the projected winner of Wisconsin with zero percent reporting. At that time, McCain had 179 votes, and Paul had 8. The percentages at the time were 55% McCain, 37% Huckabee, and 4% Paul, I believe. Here we are at 54% reporting, and the percentages are almost -exactly- the same. So RP gets exactly 4-5% when he had a grand total of 8 votes (with the others at exactly 55% and 37%), and he still does when he now has nearly 19,000? How is this statistically possible? This has happened in state after state... as if a machine were voting in consistent percentages throughout the day. If there is funny business going on, you'd think they'd try a little harder to hide it.
Nothing odd at all... we're pastuerized, but not homogenized.
The variations ARE present, but they all coalesce around the mean.
Nothing strange is going on.
IMPORTANT NON-MACHINE VOTES
Various RP supporters (in CA for one) have indicated that they did *not* use machine voting, that they used paper ballots.
Then, they were told that paper ballots wouldn't be counted for as long as the legal 30 day requirement! So the MSM results for CA likely did not include the majority of RP votes.
Who is reporting the *final*, certified vote count results for each state and when?
If Texas is mostly mail-in voting, when do those get counted *AND REPORTED*? How convenient will it be to *not* count or to count but *not* report RP votes?
Is any state showing the number who *voted* as an expected result for number of votes *cast*?
Do any of you remember when CBS (as I recall) posted the "final" results online (the 2000 election?) before all states had even closed polling? The excuse was "testing of our site was accidentally put into production". Problem - how close those vote totals were to the "final" ones after all-
Sadly

California results
Were almost exactly identical for every single county. Looking at the numbers it showed almost zero regionalism throughout the entire state. For me, this was extremely hard to believe. It would be as if every state in America showed the same rank order and almost identical percentages for every candidate. I am pretty confident there has been some sort of vote fraud in this election. The motive and means are just too clearly obvious to attempt to deny that some shenanigan has gone on at various places.

regional difference is between repub dem
in many states the regional difference is between republican and democrat, not between members of the same party. looking only at the results for one party you miss that.
Even more improbable
Is that this same occurance has happened in EVERY primary election. The percentage held for the 1st hundred votes in Florida remained consistent for the next 60,000.
amazing? improbable? coincidental?
Well
They called it with 0% reporting because the exit polls showed McCain winning easily. It's nothing new. They always base projections by exit polls.
Sigh.
Again... my post was not about them calling it early. Read it again.
OK, here is what you said
"As others mentioned, the media declared McCain the projected winner of Wisconsin with zero percent reporting."
Take a statistics course....
then you will know its "statistically possible"...in fact probable.
Treg
I have.
And no, it isn't probable that the results at 0.5% reporting will be exactly the same as at 100% reporting... time and time again.
Ignore any agents provocateur
Ignore any agents provocateur at Daily Paul who insinuate that you're irrational for questioning election results.
Ensuring the integrity of our elections is one rational approach to preserving our representative democracy (yes, I know that we live in a Constitutional Republic, thank God, but our representatives are "democratically" elected).
So, how can one ensure the integrity of political processes to which they are effectively on the outside looking in without asking questions and without holding those most directly responsible accountable?

Wrong state.
You are looking at Washington. I'm talking about Wisconsin:

why does RP gets 15+% in caucus vs 5% in primary states?
And it has repeated itself time after time..why?
Any conformist thoughts?

Because Caucuses represent
Because Caucuses represent those voters who truly care about their elected officials and don't necessarily vote because they are told to. In Washington State every single registered voter received their ballots by mail per law. So many who wouldn't ordinarily vote had the ballot sitting there and it took nearly zero effort to do so. These are people who believe that they had to vote for McCain because he was the front runner.

Fortune Favors the Bold
They are just using statistical analysis from exit polling. It generally gives accurate results.

You missed the point...
My post wasn't about them calling the winner early. It was about how the -official- results tend to hold exactly the same percentage from beginning to end. Ron Paul at 4-5% when he had 8 votes or when he had 20,000 votes. The other's holding consistently at 55% and 37% even with less than 1% reporting. This happens in almost every state, but is statistically -very- unlikely.
No Need To Hide It
Doesn't seem to be any need to hide it. Whether they use voting machines or hand counted ballots, doesn't seem to make any difference. Looks like they can just make up any numbers they want without fear of retribution. The amount of corruption of these gate-keepers is phenomenal. Do none of them have a conscience? Amazing.
