I think these kids, David Janakowski and Steven Bryant, may have figured it out. Bless them!

Who would have thought it’d happen here?
I know – – it hasn’t been proven yet. “Robocalls” + “Vote Moving” = Election Fraud, a rigged election.
A bloody rigged election? Take a look – – – I set out to do an update. That’s all.
NOTE: For the postings on “Robocalls”:
- Go to the right-hand sidebar at www.sandrafinley.ca
- To the category “Corporatocracy or democracy?”
- Click on “Robocalls & Vote moving, Election Fraud” to generate the list.
You may have noticed (recent news) that the Conservative strategy has taken an about-face. They were antagonistic to Elections Canada and the need for capacity to investigate. They have tried and failed at “deny, deny, deny”. Kudos to Canadians – – citizen outrage won’t let them get away with it.
For facebook users:
– The group CRUSH (Citizens Rallying to Unseat Steven Harper) has good information on robocalls and election fraud.

– And really great cartoons!
– There’s a new F/B group started: Robocalls – Public inquiry needed now for Canadian Democracy

“VOTE MOVING”
UNEASY:
I hesitated to send David and Steven’s video on “Vote Moving” to you because it is theoretical. It does a good job of explaining an idea, but it’s only an idea.
Then I read today’s news, the CBC report of 2,700 applications for late registration. It looks like “Vote Moving” enacted. Hmmm… and what about Borys Wrzesnewskyj’s story?
“Vote Moving” didn’t (possibly) happen in only one place. (Not to mention that it also happened in conjunction with fraudulent “robo-calls” in other ridings.)
- THE CONCEPT: Go to http://www.votemoving.com/, click on the button at the top, “Vote Moving video”)
- 2. THE CONCEPT MADE REAL, two examples:
- a. Go to http://sandrafinley.ca/?p=4528 2012-03-08 New allegations of voting irregularities come to light in Toronto: CBC
- b. Click on Borys Wrzesnewskyj on CBC News, 2 March 2012
- About voters added to the list who should not have been. Court case.
NOW FOR THOSE UPDATES!

(Note: CIMS = Constituency Information Management System database)
This is an interesting opinion that also explains the computerized data bases used by political parties.

Tories ditch ‘in-and-out’ case at Supreme Court
Here’s a wild speculation: With the robo-call election fraud matter boiling, it is too dangerous to proceed with the scheduled appeal of the Tory ‘in-and-out’ guilty verdict. Can’t risk more irregularities being uncovered. Cut the losses. Can the appeal.

Elections Canada told parties not to call voters with polling station locations (March 5)
(This was after the Conservatives called and asked for a list of the polling stations. They then did what Elections Canada asked them NOT to do.)

Spending patterns raise more questions in ‘robocall’ affair
This March 7th report names another of the major players: Responsive Marketing Group, a Toronto-based call centre with deep Conservative ties.
If campaigns have the money, and are within spending limits, they can hire a company to do their “voter identification”. Political campaigns are moving out of the era when they were carried out by volunteers.
But this goes beyond voter identification:
“ . . . The call centre came into the spotlight recently, when former employees of the company who were working on behalf of the Conservative Party told media that, in the days leading up to the election, they were instructed to call voters in closely-fought ridings to tell them their designated polling stations had changed. Days after that story surfaced, the defeated Conservative candidate in the Quebec riding of Rimouski-Neigette-Temiscouata-Les Basques told the French-language daily Le Devoir he was approached by the national campaign and told to pay $15,000.01 to RMG. He was at a loss, however, to say what services his local campaign received in return. The candidate later retracted his story, saying RMG was hired to conduct voter identification in his riding. . . “

HOW MANY SEATS FOR CONSERVATIVES TO LOSE STATUS? – – – TWELVE
308 seats in Parliament; majority is half plus one = 155 seats.
Conservatives hold 166 seats.
If TWELVE seats change hands, the Conservatives would no longer have a majority Government.

HOW MANY POTENTIAL BY-ELECTIONS BECAUSE OF ELECTION FRAUD? FOURTEEN is a conservative estimate
By February 24, Andrew Coyne in the Vancouver Sun reported fraudulent robocalls in “at least 18” ridings across the country. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Coyne+Crank+call+scandal+fits+Conservatives+pattern+pattern+political/6206836/story.html
Now there’s the ridings with alleged “vote moving” to add.
If there are court-ordered by-elections because of election fraud, the Conservatives could well lose their status as the ruling party.
