If Democrats (or Republicans) have evidence of elections violatons, should they remain silent?

I think any serious violations should be reported immediately--I don't care if its coming from a Whig, Libertarian or whatever. Not to report it and wait for the election to be over then start talking up complaints is so irresponsible--but I'm sure it will happen somewhere this year.

There are many safety catches, committees, etc. to watch for accountability in the house and senate, but ultimately their accountability rests with the voters.  We can vote them out of office.  That's why informed voting is so critical.

No !!!\n\nCalifornia used to be different for the following.\n\nA Democrat would had voted Republican if they disagreed with their party on issues.\n\nExample was when Earl Warren. He became Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court.\n\nA Republican would had voted Democrat if they disagreed with their party on issues.\n\nAmericans should vote on VALID issues.\n\nThe parties HAVE destroyed the faith in voting.\n\nIt is like buying merchandise: Do you buy a famous and well known brands or an obscure generic one.\n\nValid issues  and or candidate = intelligent decisions\n\nBoth parties have benefited from mudslinging\n\nConsider a view supported by the late Barry Morris Goldwater

Leave that up to whiny liberals and their "Diebold" one-liner.\n\nIt is pretty apparent that democrats recruit at graveyards.

I agree. People who dont vote should keep their mouths shut.

It is one thing to suspect something and another to prove it, I am sure if it was investigated it would be proved one way or the other. But it will never be investigated as those in power would not benefit from it. They may even be guilty of it.

We are being silenced by the media, the republican party and the leaders of the democratic party who only pretend to be democrats.

We'd still be hearing Rush screaming about it today if the Liberals had stolen the election instead of the Republicans.\n\nAnd then, if the Dems had stolen the next election as well, like the GOP did, boy oh boy would they be crying foul.

Republicans have no shame. The intelligent ones will tell you they know the election was stolen. Then they make weak excuses like "The Democrats would have done the same thing if they could have." What crap! I hope the Democrats do get the chance to steal an election and they take it. Revenge would be sweet.

It makes sense to vote in the states that have not yet been corrupted. Plus if we the dems did not vote it would give the appearance that there really is a 'republican majority'. Planning a mass protest involving not voting would never work either. It'd be too hard to organize. We vote for the same reason there is religion. Faith. \n\nOf course, faith really doesn't work all that well sometimes. Maybe the lying cheaters will get caught one day! Or maybe progressives need to do more on ensuring 'fair elections'. If the republicans have nothing to hide why are they so adamantly opposed to paper ballots? Hmmm, i wonder.

Well, now that the Democrats are doing fairly well, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the machines anymore.  What a coincidence!!  Just wait though, if they lose, they will have to blame it on something or somebody else though.  Its how they roll.

not realy i have  trouble with people who do not own companies that employee more then25 people or incomes in eccess of 500,000 annualy being republicans so they all must be conservatives and democrats should try to get there votes in the last week of the next presidential election we should all leak a story that republican presidential candidate has paid for his college girl freinds abortion and see what happens the mear suggestion might cost him  millions of votes right or wrong but then again they are stuborn people who would not beleive it anyhow once they make up there minds it  takes an act of congress to change there minds.they stick by there man saying he didnt do it it all lies you gotta get them before the mind is closed to new information the women go for the kindest looking and most honest looking guy.the men have to vote with the wifes or not get any for four years till the next election .republican husbands have been know to take mistresses for four years and all of a sudden abandone them .\nSo i say there is some truth to the rumors.

CHEATING?\n\nOK, I didn't have read much of the article before I knew I didn't have go any further.  There's a big flaw in this argument, the DEMS do it too!\n\nThat's right, when a Republican voter comes to the table, Democrats scrutinize in the same way.  It's a two-sided game that's been going on for decades.  This is nothing new.  Many Republicans after losses in the past complained about the same thing.  He said, She said.  That's all it is.\n\nRemember, you have democrats that target a specific voting pool, going out on election day and rounding as many black, hispanic, and poor americans as they can to vote against the Republican nominee.  Now, I didn't read the rest of that article, but does it mention both sides of the issue?  I'd be surprised if you ever got a "fair and balanced" report out of that mag about anything...

LMAO\n\nThat brings up an idea:   supposedly democrats are doing well in the mid-term elections, and yet they are hiding from their liberal media friends.  Shouldn't they be excited and celebrating?  If they hide when things go well, imagine what they will do if they regain power and things go BAD? \n\nI fear for our safety with Pelosi in power.

LOL.  Well obviously the answer is 'yes', the 'people have spoken' or so to speak.  We had our chance for our voices to be heard (it's called Election Day, it pre-marked on most calendars), and we failed to do so.  It's sad how politics, especially Bush, have become such a polarizing factor in America, when fewer people voted in the last election preportionately than ever.  You would think with all these strong opinions, people would have been clogging the polls. So, in a nutshell 'let your voice be heard'?  Obviously most people don't care about that any more.

Tell it to democrats.

EXTREMELY...I feel there is a silent majority out there. I'm a Centrist. The far left wing has attempted to make this election a referendum against George Bush. I will vote in a Referendum fashion. Yet my vote will be against the far left that has literally hijacked the once great Democratic party and I will vote Republican across the board. The silent majority will vote in droves stunning the far left despite the latest gallop polls. The Republicans will gain seats due to the far lefts extremists beliefs.
