Two Ohio Election Officials Indicted for 2004 Election Recount Conduct!
Charged for Violating State Law in Attempt to Assure Hand Recount Wouldn't Occur

Each Face Six Counts, 18 Months in Prison

As The BRAD BLOG has been reporting for months, the recount of the 2004 Ohio Presidential Election was gamed by Ohio elections officials and voting machine company employees who violated state laws requiring a random recount of precincts in order to determine if a hand recount of entire counties would be necessary.

Reports that county officials and voting machine companies colluded to assure the hand recount would match with the initial machine recount have been reported for months and yesterday the first indictments were handed down...

1. Sweet.
Any chance we can get that recount now, or did Blackwell destroy the ballots?

11. They should be offered Witness Relocation Program
and a healthy reward in return for spilling their guts about who told them how to conduct the recount.

If not offered any protection, who knows whether they might decide to pull a Judith Miller...

15. Howard Dean and the greens should get these guys on tape.....
Get them on witness tape and see what old 'good looking man' Blackwell told them to do.....And then, capture the nice little evidence to start unplugging all the holes and convict Tom Noe and the Blackwell stooge...

12. I hope this snowballs into Blackwell being indicted!
Two Ohio Election Officials Indicted for 2004 Election Recount Conduct!

And this isn't a newsworthy item for corporate media??!! only proves corporate media is also guilty for preventing this news for public consumption.

We should nominate and kick this story around as katrina is front and center.

16. OK time to offer a Deal to Spill the Beans on the Higher Ups!
The prosecutor should offer the following deal:

first one to accept would get a slap on the wrist in exchange for complete truthful testimony about all the corruption that occurred and who was directly involved in carrying it off.

A singing canary is better than a silenced and caged canary in my book.

31. I knew this day would have to come, but I'm still surprised and
delighted to see the legal system begin its unraveling of the tangle of crimes that happened in Ohio this past election.

Thanks Brad!
