Innocently, while trying to help the Green Party last week - 271 votes [View All]

[NVMojo]

were discovered on "vote cartridges" from the brand new paper trailed Sequoia machines at our Elko County clerk's office in Nevada.

I can't post the link to the story in tonight's local paper but I will tomorrow as soon as it goes up. Someone from the Green Party in Vegas had asked me to see if I could get the precinct totals for this county to help them out with the recount they had initially filed. I sent a written request last Monday for the documentation to the Clerk. On Thursday, while entering the precinct votes into an Excel database ....from some other database (I was intially told), 271 uncounted votes were found on three separate precincts in the main population base of Elko County. Bush gained about 200 of these votes and Kerry gained 55. Just think, if I had not made that public information request for the Green Party that already bailed on their recount effort in Nevada, 271 people in my county's votes would never have been counted!!!

I will never vote in this state again.

Oh, forgot to add that the Clerk had to call Sequoia in California to help them "retrieve" the votes off the cartridges. What the hell does that mean? I'll let you guess.

Tell me lies, tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies ....

Do you think I should request this same thing from every county in Nevada now?
