President Bush gained 38, while independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader tallied one more vote.

2. I wonder what the odds are...
All of the absentee, provisional, and early votes counted have all favored Kerry by a large margin, and yet he still "lost" the election & these states??

3. Every time votes are found they heavily favor Kerry
If Bush had really won the popular vote, that ratio would have been the other way around.

Finding lost votes is totally random. The number of votes found should equal or come close to the break down of the precinct in which they were found. However, in almost every instance so far, this is not the case. Actually, the exact opposite of what would be expected to happen is what is we are finding.

Across the board, the numbers are too consistent.
