37. This was my view of it, I disagree with your conclusion - I took notes.
I just heard Pam Fessler report on Election Fraud ISSUE!!!

Overall, pretty good - gave much more time to the good guys than the bad guys, I would say.

What I heard:

First - Common Cause event from Tuesday was covered: Quoted an activist saying that as a poll watcher he heard a voter yelling that their Kerry vote turned into a Bush vote, and that night he heard more cases of that on the news - How can it all go from Kerry to Bush, is there anyway to explain that anomoly other than FRAUD!!!??? And the crowd went WILD!!!! in the background. WoooHooo!!!

Pam Fessler referred to us as a small but energized group of voters, mostly organizing on the internet.

David Dill (?) and Ted Selker (?) the MIT guy saying some votes switched from Bush to Kerry too so it isn't fraud.

Mentioned Intimidation and confusion at the polls, poll watchers describing no lines in the suburbs and inner city voters waiting for hours in the rain.

THEN - The hearing yesterday - Played a clip of Conyers, pretty basic - mentioned that w/o Republican support it will be hard for Congress to do anything, that is why they are demanding the GAO do an investigation. Also quickly mentioned the GLIB recount filing in Ohio and the lawsuits, but not much detail about that.

THen the SOS spokesman said the 'welcome this scrutiny' because they have nothing to hide. Especially since Democrats are in charge of the polls in the inner city anyway, how can they blame it on the state? (?!?!?!?)

That's all folks. I gotta get dressed and go to work now.
