Absolutely shameless...

[BLAMMO!!]

Probably a hoax.

They usually wait 'til election day and give out cigarettes and booze to get people to vote.

over and over

[BLAMMO!!]

over and over

People can only vote once.

For that, they use absentee ballots with the names of dead people.

[BLAMMO!!]

Why is it the Republicans managed to get their convention over almost every night by 11PM and these inconsiderate assholes can't shut the fuck up and have to stomp all over the 11:00 news?

[Huntington Guy]

Let's see if the military overseas absentee ballots get counted this year.

Now, if you go to the notoriously Left leaning so called "purveyors of truth" Snopes.com , it is interesting what they unwittingly admit that the DNC REALLY IS doing, even though they can't really say that the ad is fake:

Crisis Detractors

An ad suggesting the DNC was hiring actors to fill empty seats appeared on Craigslist, but was almost certainly a fake.By Whose standards?

Claim: The Democratic National Convention's organizers published a Craigslist ad seeking actors to replace missing or ejected delegates.
Unproven Unproven? You guys must need to hire extra help to do damage control for the Dems!

WHAT'S TRUE: A Craigslist ad appeared purporting to seek "actors" for a "national convention."
WHAT'S FALSE: The ad was not traced back to the DNC.So that makes it false?
WHAT'S Undetermined: Who placed the ad; whether it was a joke or protest.

Breaking: Dems forced to hire rent-a-crowds to fill Bernie delegate DNC seats
From craigslist and secret emails, it has been revealed that the Democrats are now relying on “Rent a crowd” services to fill the half empty seats at the DNC after the Bernie delegates left Philly for good.

Origin:On 26 July 2016, a number of Bernie Sanders' delegates left the Democratic National Convention as part of a planned walkout, and not long afterwards an advertisement was posted to Philadelphia's Craigslist purporting to seek hundreds of paid "actors" to fill "empty seats" at a national convention.
Given that only one big national convention was occurring at that time and that Philadelphia hosted the DNC, there was little mystery as to who or what the posting referenced. It read:

Actors Needed For National Convention (Philadelphia)
compensation: $50.00
Looking for 700 people to be utilized as actors during the National Convention.
We currently have a number of empty seats that will need to be filled as we are currently removing a number of people and need to refill their seats for the remainder of the conference.
You will be paid $50.00 each night for the remainder of the convention. You will be required to cheer at all times and will be asked to dress properly and possibly wear some promotional material.

A number of social media users took the posting at face value, and it circulated rapidly as a commentary on the rocky events of the DNC. But there were a number of reasons the advertisement was very likely fake, the largest being its obvious overtones of political theater. The ad was littered with what appeared to be references to events leading up to the convention, and appears to have surfaced after coverage of both the walkout and photographs of empty seats.
Another was the mode of transmission: Craigslist. Many protesting Sanders supporters cited Wikileaks' "DNCLeaks" (a vast dump of 20,000 DNC e-mails on the eve of the convention) as a reason for their grievances, and those leaks included a proposal to plant fake Craigslist ads smearing Donald Trump. In a chain of e-mails, DNC staffer Christina Freundlich sought approval on a plan to create a "microsite" and stated a digital team that "created a fake craigslist jobs post for women who want to apply to jobs one of Trump’s organizations":

Multiple Positions (NYC area)
Seeking staff members for multiple positions in a large, New York-based corporation known for its real estate investments, fake universities, steaks, and wine. The boss has very strict standards for female employees, ranging from the women who take lunch orders (must be hot) to the women who oversee multi-million dollar construction projects (must maintain hotness demonstrated at time of hiring).
Title: Honey Bunch (that’s what the boss will call you)
Job requirements:
* No gaining weight on the job (we’ll take some “before” pictures when you start to use later as evidence)
* Must be open to public humiliation and open-press workouts if you do gain weight on the job
* A willingness to evaluate other women’s hotness for the boss’ satisfaction is a plus
* Should be proficient in lying about age if the boss thinks you’re too old Working mothers not preferred (the boss finds pumping breast milk disgusting, and worries they’re too focused on their children).
About us: We’re proud to maintain a “fun” and “friendly work environment, where the boss is always available to meet with his employees. Like it or not, he may greet you with a kiss on the lips or grope you under the meeting table. Interested applicants should send resume, cover letter, and headshot to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>

In another e-mail DNC Communications Director Luis Miranda criticized fellow staffers over a staged protest with poor turnout, citing the following tweet:

Miranda ended the chain of e-mails with a directive to employ interns for such events if unspecified "allies" failed to "deliver bodies" in time for photo ops:

Yes, but going forward, when our allies screw up and don't deliver bodies in time, we either send all our interns out there or we stay away from it.. we don't want to own a bad picture[.]

The DNC "actors" advertisement appeared to be either a humorous or satirical attempt to weaponize those controversial tactics against the party itself.

Probably a hoax.

yeah, they wouldn't use craig's list.
First of all that would mean their supporters are looking in the jobs section. We all know that doesn't happen all that often
Second, they'd use their normal means of hiring protesters; community organizers and unions

[BLAMMO!!]

Probably a hoax....

Maybe not.
