Defeated U.S. Senate candidate Orly Taitz said Wednesday that her loss was likely caused by rigged voting machines.
Writing on her blog Wednesday morning, the Orange County resident said: "At the moment nobody has a clue how these machines are programmed. There is a high probability that different values were given to votes cast for different candidates."
Before the election, Taitz was responsible for the nation's high incumbency rate.
"How can it be that the members of Congress, which have an approval rating of 9 to 11 percent, can be reelected on average 90 percent of the time?" she said. "Something is very wrong with this system."
This was not the first time Taitz has claimed fraud in her bid for office. Two years ago, she lost to Damon Dunn during the Republican primary and then sued Dunn, claiming fraud.
At that time, the court said Taitz "provided no legal basis" to explain why her opponent's past voter registration constituted fraud.
Taitz is best known for her court case against the Social Security Administration, in which she attempted to prove that President Barack Obama is not a U.S. citizen. That case was .
Taitz's blog suggested more lawsuits are on the way.
"I believe it is time to hold party officials and members of the media financially accountable for fraud, slander and defamation of my character," she wrote.
Taitz also claimed she was running fourth among 23 challengers for the U.S. Senate seat. According to official state results, Taitz placed 5th.
Thank God. The best candidate may not always win, but the people generally get what they ask for. Of course, there is that warning about being careful what you ask for, because you might actually get it. As evidence, I offer you the ruling class of the formerly glorious State of California.
After all, we do have "Gov. Moonbeam" at the helm.
Let me know what you think about him asking us to raise the state sales tax so they can waste more of the tax payers money.
I am no fan of Gov. Moonbeam. As a California native, I also suffered through him previously. But IMHO, the concept of mitigating one radically off-base politician with another just does not make sense. California needs an immediate influx of dedicated, pragmatic leadership which will focus on the long term recovery of a place I personally love. Unfortunately this sort of treasured, selfless leader is in short supply these days.
This is true of not only this state, but also the nation. And for very good reasons. Why would anyone of quality subject themselves to running for office in this country? Our political races are nothing more than popularity contests and they are completely disconnected with the notion of governance. This, of course, scares the snot out of the rest of the world. Which everyone who has traveled in the last two decades realizes if they bothered to talk honestly with people in other countries.
Thanks a bunch. And really love your love affair for Pete Stark. But the video is really creepy. He reminds me of Tricky Dick Nixon. One scary dude. An enemies list for REPORTERS. Someone flew over the coo coos nest. http://unioncity.patch.com/articles/congressman-stark-makes-an-accusation-but-can-t-back-it-up-again
My fellow Ca. citizens are lost in the past. How soon we forget mr. moon beam.
I agree in most part with you. Popularity contest. The citizens have little input but when you have 8 candidates for president and do not pick the best person for the job but instead pick the most popular one it is sad. But anyone then Obama is better than nothing. The Muslim is ruining this country.
Ask yourself why did Hillary Clinton get appointed to the post of sect. of state? Give me your best response if you are interested. If not ignore this question. Tell me why the ag of the U.S. is suing states in order for them to stop illegals from entering the U.S.! Tell me why the MOST expensive route was devised to print money for the bank bailouts when they could of gotten out VERY cheaply. Tell me why in this country's entire history this is the first ever downgrade of our credit rating! Tell me how many of your children are named Hussein? I could go on and on but your excuse for all this and more, if you do not believe, is like Fox news like to say. Mistakes, errors, does not understand, etc. This Muslim understands it all. He is not making mistakes. He is more intelligent than all of you combined. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=tCAffMSWSzY#t=28
Kinda like the Salem witch hunt trials. Have a great day...
What are you talking about? I asked for your comments. If you are not well versed in the subject matter I asked you about I can understand that!! Most people are not.
That is the way it is. No one wants to believe. You avoid my questions because it is easier to accuse than use that gray matter.
Quit trying to change the story, or it is dementia....?
Bobo answers: "Ask yourself why did Hillary Clinton get appointed to the post of sect. of state?" She, Biden and Obama are all corporatists, like her husband. They are the three seats of power (Holder is the fourth, and let's not forget Berneke) and they represent corporate interests before individuals. "Tell me why the ag of the U.S. is suing states in order for them to stop illegals from entering the U.S.!" Because corporate interests WANT cheep labour. It's the same reason the law doesn't really punish the employer for hiring them when they are caught doing it. If the law was changed so that the penalty was $1MM for the first and it doubled every time thereafter, there would be no jobs and they would stop coming across the border. "Tell me why the MOST expensive route was devised to print money for the bank bailouts when they could of gotten out VERY cheaply." Ask George Bush II. King Georgie is the one who bailed out the banks. "Tell me why in this country's entire history this is the first ever downgrade of our credit rating!" The GOP refused to do a damn thing to help the economy because doing so would help Obama get re-elected and their only goal is to stop Obama (per their own leadership) "Tell me how many of your children are named Hussein?" Mine are both named Nguyen as their middle name. I must be a secret Vietnamese Commi! Bobo, thanks again for making Orly appear sane.
It is so easy to accuse someone of being delusional. All it takes is a comment.
Give it up Mama, Bobo needs his conspiracies, they are the only thing that allows him to get up and face the day with hope. Facts that get in the way of them are ignored, and any fact that can be twisted to support them will be. Occasionally he has to be debunked, because if you don't debunk the BS some reader might actually believe it (thus the reason for my answers above). But debunk him and move on, because you can't have a conversation with him since like any true believer (ex: Scientologist) he needs his BS because it has become a great part of his personal identity. It's now a part of "who he is" and he will defend it to the death (even if it makes no sense to the sane).
