Great quality there.
He only won 2 counties but got votes in every single county. Seriously, if you want to be successful spreading your lies at least learn to read.

Dave Leip's Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections - Data Graphs

49 THOUSAND DEMOCRATS voted for him.

He stopped being a Democrat about when he announced he was wrong in being a racist. I guess one can summarize that its ok if you were a KKK member as long as you have a D next to your name but dont dare realize your wrong and become a R.

Was Thurmond or Helms KKK members?

So says David Liep, who doesn't even note on any website (or even reference the official election website) but his own. He isn't noteworthy enough to get mentioned on any other website, save his linkedin which states his job is helping people connect "with the real world".

Maybe those apps would help a few people here.

So because you don't like the numbers you simply dismiss them? That's nice to know.

How does it feel to know that your entire premise for this thread just blew up in your face?

Here's some additional info that makes Democrats hide.

Our Campaigns - Candidate - Gloria O'Dell (http://www.ourcampaigns.com/CandidateDetail.html?CandidateID=12054 - broken link)

Our Campaigns - KS US Senate - D Primary Race - Aug 04, 1992 (http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=244692 - broken link)

"Democrat Gloria O'Dell, who is running far behind Republican Sen. Bob Dole in Kansas, was branded a lesbian by her primary opponent, the Rev. Fred Phelps, whose supporters held signs calling her a derogatory name for lesbians. Although Phelps was a fringe candidate who has mounted other hate campaigns, O'Dell, 46, a divorced mother, was dogged by questions from voters and forced to call a news conference to proclaim her heterosexuality and denounce his tactics. "

So 49 THOUSAND Democrats voted with Fred Phelps and supported his attack on this woman.

Heh, riiight. A single website states Phelps numbers for one single year, and not the official polling numbers. Just some random guy with zero references on any legitimate organization and nothing that even mentions his name in relation to poll numbers outside his own published website...and you expect anyone to believe them?

I wish I could live in my own fantasy world like this. I bet it beats reality where people need real facts. If this is the quality of refutations, I am saddened by the level of debate. Here I thought I might actually get a challenge from some one.

You already do. It's the fantasy world that so many liberals live in that your typical white Republican male must be a white supremacist

Our Campaigns - KS Governor - D Primary Race - Aug 04, 1998 (http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=216670 - broken link)

Phelps also ran for gov. of KS in 1998, he got 15,233 Democrat votes in the primary.

He also ran for gov. in 1990

Our Campaigns - KS Governor - D Primary Race - Aug 07, 1990 (http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=373492 - broken link)

That time around he got 11,572 Democrat votes.

I could keep this up all night, would you like to continue or have you had enough of failing for the night?
