Oct 2012

In 2004, John Kerry won the county by less than a full percentage point. In 2008, Barack Obama won LaPorte County by over 20 points (reaching 60 percent of the countywide vote).

This is no accident.

No accident this corruption happens in presidential elections. And favoring the Republicans.

I'm tired of it. And I'd like to know what Democrats are doing about it.
