I guess the best way to pose this question is to create a mathematical equation:

A = Number of people who committed voter fraud and were convicted of voter fraud

B = Number of people who committed voter fraud but were not caught/not convicted of voter fraud

C = Total number of people who committed voter fraud

A + B = C

Please solve this equation. We can use your number for A. You contend that we can infer C by knowing A, but we have no idea of B. Please solve this equation based on your logic.

When you realize this is not solvable, please try an attempt to reiterate your reasoning for knowing that voter fraud is statistically insignificant when you have no idea how many people have successfully committed voter fraud (B).

So, who is perpetrating the fraud? You think someone who loses an election and suspects fraud just slinks away? They pursue legal remedies. You can use that little formula to confirm or deny any crime. Common sense says a fraud epidemic you suggest would have empirical evidence to support it. All you can do is offer meaningless suppositions. The evidence suggests otherwise.

I'm not saying rampant fraud exists, I'm saying you can't infer that voter fraud does not exist because you only see a few cases of convictions. That is your argument, not mine.

What evidence suggests "otherwise"? Again, you can't suggest voter fraud is statistically insignificant based on the fact a very few convictions exist. If you have other evidence that voter fraud is an anomaly, please share.

You become enlightened when you stop blindly following either party and turn off cable TV news 

Would you care to show evidence of why you think stevenash blindly follows either party? What led you to this conclusion? History has shown that no answer will be forthcoming.

I never suggested it didn’t exist. I said incidences are statistically insignificant as impacting outcomes. Even if it’s off by a factor of 10, it is still insignificant given the sheer number of votes cast in all elections. Overall the system is safe. I’ve worked it, am familiar with the rules, and know from my experience as an election official that in person voter fraud is not easy to pull off. I think I speak for many poll workers when I say we don’t volunteer for the job to put our butts on the line to go to jail. Disclaimer: the job does pay $8.00 an hour.

That was more of a general statement, and not directed at Nash, hence the “blindly following either party” part. I’m confident Nash does not blindly the Democratic Party, at a minimum.

 

thank you for your contribution however!

You've made this same accusation (directly in the other cases) on multiple occasions about me, stevenash, and the entire board. You have been asked repeatedly to show what has led you to this conclusion...and you always run from the question. This instance was just a continuation of all the other instances. So once again, can you backup your claims that we blindly follow any party? Will you continue to levy this accusation with zero evidence?

I wouldn’t say the entire board. There are a small number of active users who do use their brain. I do not believe you are one of them. I do think Nash is a smart guy, however often we disagree. 

So again, you won't backup your claims as usual. Why do you run from such a simple question?

    • Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.
    • I don't think it's 6-5 maybe 4-3
    • Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
