Iowa GOP moving vote-count to 'undisclosed location'

Threats to disrupt the Iowa Republican caucuses next week have prompted state GOP officials to move the vote tabulation to an "undisclosed location," POLITICO has learned.

The state party has not yet told the campaigns exactly where the returns will be added up, only that it will be off-site from the Iowa GOP's Des Moines headquarters. The 2008 caucus results were tabulated at the state party offices, which sit just a few blocks from the state capitol.

Activist groups including the Occupy movement have indicated that they'll attempt to interrupt rallies in the closing days before next Tuesday's caucuses.

The AP reported today that Occupy is making plans to even attend some caucuses and vote "no preference," but not disturb the voting process.

But Iowa Republicans are also bracing for other threats, sources say, including hacking.

Iowa GOP Chair Matt Strawn wouldn't comment on the plan to move the vote-counting except to say they're increasing security measures.

"The Iowa GOP is taking additional safeguards to ensure the Caucus results are tabulated and reported to the public in an accurate and timely manner," Strawn said. "We are not commenting on specific security procedures."
Then there should be people in each voting location to document what the actual vote tallies are to check it against whatever the state GOP says it is.

If no one does anything about this, then when exactly is it going to end? Nothing is going to change and the results are always going to be made to favor one of their designated figureheads (through whatever means necessary) unless, and until, action is taken to correct the situation.

today was not a good day in the polls. Paul's lead has dropped to an average of 0.5% points from 1.4% in the last day at realclearpolitics.com . . . . santorum gaining, polling around 10 percent in iowa. if gingrich continues to implode the question becomes do the majority of his supporters go to romney, or to the evangelical trio, or will there be a split between the moderate and evangelical camp? hopefully the GOP will remain indecisive, allowing Paul a first place finish.

Maybe. But after seeing this, independents will wanna just go out and shop and grease a big nickel. This is the most sense Romney's made in his entire campaign.

It's not just for breakfast any more.

"Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental
opinion of a day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a
distinguished period and pursued unalterably through every
change of ministers, too plainly prove a deliberate, systematic
plan of reducing [a people] to slavery."

~~ Thomas Jefferson

"Power kills, absolute power kills absolutely. The more power a government has, the more it can arbitrarily make war on others and murder foreign and domestic subjects. The more that government is constrained and diffused, the less tendency there is for them to commit genocide."

When they put you in the internment camp, if you're really, really good, they might let you watch Dancing With The Stars.
