In a city where President Obama received more than 85 percent of the votes, in some places he received almost every one. In 13 Philadelphia wards, Obama received 99 percent of the vote or more. Those wards, many with large African American populations, also swung heavily for Obama over John McCain in 2008 --snip-- Randall Miller, a history professor at St. Joseph's University, said politicians almost never get 99 percent of the votes anywhere except, perhaps, the towns where they were born.

These are the same polling places where the GOP poll watchers were thrown out for a few hours

They almost always get 99% of the vote in dictatorships that pretend to be democratic/republican forms of government.

Philly is just one of many roach motels that voted heavy for the Kenyan. I would suspect the head roaches their tampered with the polls.

It is sad to think that the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall reside in Philadelphia. It just doesn't seem like an appropriate place for them anymore.
