OK - Is DNC ready to demand the vote machines be examined IMMEDIATELY?
Is this the moment they have needed to make the case?

1. "DNC", "Demand," & "Immediately" don't belong in the same sentence
How 'bout "Is DNC ready to ask politely that the vote machines be examined at the Republicans' earliest convenience".

2. "Is this the moment they have needed to make the case?"
What do you mean ... did something happen in Ohio? Please don't tell me they stole it from Hackett!

4. shades of Nov....but then they had the time to screw with the machines and
the count. With the Noe scandal going on they may not be able to get away with stealing an election as easily.

5. Why ? This went exactly as I had expected
Cincinnati and its neocon acolyte neighbors, Clermont and Warren, went for Schmidt, while the poor and rural Appalachian Counties -- Brown, Adams, Scioto and Pike, went for Hackett.

If anything, I want the Appalachian counties OUT of the goddamn second district once and for all. We are BLUE and are SICK of being steamrolled and forgotten by the goosestepping Republican insanity of Zinzinnati!!

9. Isn't the outer portion of Cincinnati where greatest # of white supremacy
members live?

I heard some time ago that there were more KKK there than in Georgia, even.

10. When you speak of the "outer portions of Cincinnati"...
Are you referring to Clermont and Warren counties?

11. Fuzzily recalling the names, but I think it was around Blue Ash
and its surrounding area. Does that ring a bell?

12. I believe Blue Ash is in NE Hamilton County
If I'm not mistaken it is indeed part of the 2nd District (someone correct me if I'm wrong). That area is notorius for extremist hate group activities. Here are a few related articles:

7. With a vote this small I doubt they would be foolish enough
to try to rig it. It would be too easy to figure it out. With the vote this close even if we lose we win. In Nov this district went for Bush 72%-28%.. apparently alot has changed

13. elections are held at the county level anyway.
DNC would have nothing to do with it. It's up to the individual county parties to take it up with the county election office. Which is why your membership in and support of the county party is so important.
