1. Hmm. Would that be legal for the state, and if so, what effect would
it have on the election?

3. It was just on C-SPAN's panel on Ohio Voter fraud
Here's some stuff from Jesse Jackson Jr.

If we can find time to vote on who can marry who.

If we can find time to vote on term limits for senators.

If we can find time to vote on spending limits for (I missed it)

Why can't we find the time to vote on .

Something to that effect, anyway.

God help us when we need Jesse Jackson and Jesse Jackson Jr. to save Hymietown and the rest of the blue states.

4. I love Jesse Jackson Junior!!!
I just hope he's not a race-baiting anti-semite like his dad.

He's giving an incredible speech.

I hope you're all watching.

5. I think he said if the recount proved different results...
that a SECOND set of Electoral Votes would be cast, and BOTH submitted to the Jan. 6 reading of the Electoral Votes.
(That was Cobbs' attorney who said this...IF I heard this correctly. I'm paraphrasing, of course.)

That SECOND set of Electoral votes would mean a DIFFERENT President, and WOULD 'change the results'...contrary to what we've been placated with thus far.

Keep the faith! Spread the word! It ain't over 'til it's over.:kick:

6. If both are submitted. . . .
it goes to a vote of the House, one vote per state by majority of the delegation. Rupublicans have the majority of the delegations and therefore Bush would still win.
