Even the Non-Partisan National Research Commission on Elections and Voting Cannot Conclusively State the Election Was Not Stolen

By ADVOCATE STAFF

While finding "no current evidence of irregularities of sufficient magnitude or scope to change the popular vote or Electoral College winner," the non-partisan National Research Commission on Elections and Voting, which released its interim report on December 22nd, 2004, nevertheless could make no "conclusive statement regarding the accuracy or fairness of specific <2004 election> results at this time." .

The Advocate believes the above news bears repeating, as you won't hear it a single time -- let alone repeated -- from any mainstream media source, and the report itself makes great effort to bury this headline in its mountain of academic/statistical verbiage: the non-partisan National Research Commission on Elections and Voting has studied the 2004 election and cannot conclusively state that the results of the election are accurate. The Commission does little to hide the fact that blame for the lack of a conclusive determination as to the fairness of the presidential election lies squarely with all those who currently hold or control vital election data, but for whatever reason (partisan or otherwise) will not release it.
