Reply #17: Many Of Us Felt that Blackwell Would Steal it for Schmidt if Necessary [View All]

so that Hackett could not possibly win no matter how many votes he got.

Seems to me that if Kerry and Hackett had won in Ohio, we would not be complaining about "stolen" or "hacked" elections. On the night of the Hackett-Schmidt race, the general sentiment was that if Hackett won, the election was clean, and if Schmidt won, it was stolen. That's hypocritical in the extreme.

Not at all. Who in Ohio is in a better position to steal an election?
Is it the Republicans, who hold every statewide office, or the
Democrats, who hold none?
