anyone see the story on drudge about the tv station in cleveland calling the election

[chad]

the story was there for about 10 minutes. i tired linking to it **poof** it's gone. there was a tv station in cleveland that ran a ticker at the bottom of the screen with november 6th "election results" (obama won). it also showed that they had the same info on their website. now, i can't find the story anywhere.

anybody else see it?

CBS News affiliate calls 2012 presidential race for Barack Obama weeks ahead of election

The 2012 presidential election is still more than two weeks away, but on Friday a CBS News affiliate in Arizona called the race for President Barack Obama.

For 17 seconds, Phoenix, Arizona CBS News affiliate KPHO ran a lower third graphic that showed that Obama had won the Nov. 6 election over Gov. Mitt Romney with 99% of the precincts reporting. The lower third graphic appeared around 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 19, during an episode of “The People’s Court.”

The CBS News graphic showed Obama winning the election with 43 percent of the vote nationwide to Romney’s 40 percent -– or 40,237,966 votes to 38,116,216. It is unclear who garnered the other 17 percent in the fictional election results.

KPHO’s general manager did not return The Daily Caller’s request for comment by time of publication.

okay, beeen researching it more. the tv one was in arizona (as lt pointed out), and the tv station website one was in cincinnati (not cleveland). so, it happened 2 diferent places. looks like the fix is in.

I don't think this means anything anymore then the republicans rigging the gallup poll.
I hope it's right though. It will give me pleasure to see the Romney people heads explode.
That will fix the repubs for the disrespecting and blackout of RP, his followers and us too.
If O wins, my hope is to see him impeached and jailed during his second term. (wishful thinking)
Tonight should be interesting...will one of them implode and end their bid during the live action?
I see Donald is going to stick his big snout into the picture this week with some kind of announcement on O. Could be an interesting week?

I'm saving that screens shot graphic image to caompar to election night. If the same exact numbers for the candidates come up, who's going to claim it's a coincidence? Besides maybe Percival and his sock puppets.

Well if its 2 different places at around the same time, that would suggest its not an accident.

Wait its a Cleveland paper reporting about Phoenix?

[Libertytree]

Romney 47.37%
Obama 52.63% The GSUS poll %'s.

The %'s shown in the Az tv pic.
Obama 43%
Mitty 40%.

The %'s are quite close, lol.

Okay, so what happened to the second pix on this thread, I think put up by LT?

It was of a man standing at the podium and was a much clearer shot of the "results" as in more readable.

Gremlins?

Thought police?

Nice catch, Chad.

drudge for sure got told to pull the story. it was literally up for a matter of moments. i always have a drudge tab open. it popped up on the auto refresh, was there for a few minutes, and then the page auto refreshed and it was gone. it disappeared from the drudge archives pages as well.

aaaaaaand that's one of the reasons why I do *not* like the auto-refresh on Drudge.

You get the truth from Druge like how you get accuracy from Snopes
