Thought on # of rejected provisional ballots....
Why would SO many people stand hours and hours in the cold rain to vote if they weren't "properly" registered?

People who had jobs to get to...

Students who had course work to do...

That dog won't hunt (always want to say that..)


Also, I don't have any info on this but it just occured to me - why did the inner-city areas HAVE so many blank provisional ballots on hand? I could have sworn I heard that other areas didn't have enough on hand and had to call in for some.

1. Has anyone got any figures on the
number of provisional ballots cast in 2004 compared to those cast in 2000

2. In Ohio there were 93,000 rejected ballots. Is that correct?
What happened to them and how can they be investigated?

3. I believe that 93,000 is the total of the undervotes and overvotes
and would have come from both punch card ballots and optical scan ballots.

I would like to get a precinct breakdown of these ballots if anyone knows where to find it.

about provisional ballots, the ones they counted last week, and the numbers comparison between 2000 and 2004
