Help needed ASAP

[Chimpanzee]

I've been on vacation away from a computer for 5 days now - have no way of knowing recent developments and can only use this computer for 30 minutes. Can anyone provide an update on our cause? Any good news??

Thank you!

3. Bev Harris has been banned from DU.

The Ohio tally has been certified. (So now a recount can start)

The Republic is still doomed.

There will be protests in every state capital on Dec 12th.

A programmer in Fla signed an affidavit that he designed a piece of software to make vote-fraud possible.

I'm sure I missed a few.

ON EDIT: I corrected the protest date. (Sorry)

9. History of disagreement and Bad Things Happening.

Flared up again when she and Keith Olbermann got into a catfight. Board was really bad for a few days. You missed all the fun.

14. I don't have all the facts, but...

Apparently Bev threatened to sue DU b/c of some copy-write issue.

Personally, I think the pressure of dealing with the enormity of the BBV issue made her crack. But honestly, I don't know.

[brainshrub]

10. No.

Kerry's flip-flop on his promise to make every vote count doomed us all.

I suggest you get used to orange prison jumpsuits.

11. Lookin faint.

IMO Cliff Arneback lawsuit is best chance.

12. Are you guys serious?

I really need good i9nfo as my time is nearly up at the library.

[crispini]

16. It's lookin WEIRD, is what it's looking.

Recount in OH on, but I don't think Kerry can pick up enough from the undervotes and spoiled ballots.

Greens, Libs filing in NM for recount, and one other state.

And some guy running around the internet saying he's build a vote fraud prototype program and everyone's in a tizzy trying to figure out if he's got any cred.

13. The programmer submitted the affidavit to

somewhere (house judiciary committee-I think) and Clint curtis's (the programmer)dog was killed not long after the story was published.

15. Feds ruled in our favor-Recount is on in all counties

Letter to Blackwell citeing 15 pages of vote irregularites from Dems on the judicary committee.

Cliff Arlbeck (sp?) is fileing fraud lawsuit probably today of tommorow showing they flipped 65,000 Kerry votes over to Bush. Will be good if he can deliver the goods.

Guy named Curtis in Florida testified to the committee that he was asked to write a vote swithing program by the Rethug that repersents Voluga(sp?) county.

17. House judiciary subcommittee "hearings" on Thursday.

Those look good. But all Dems, no Reps are supporting.

26. A programmer confessed to being asked to rig votes.

He signed an affidavit that's been posted online at bradsblog and elsewhere saying a Florida Rep legislator asked him to design a crooked program. His pre-election attempts to draw attention to this issue included complaining to a Florida official who investigated, then turned up dead in an apparent suicide (murder?). No proof yet that the vote-rigging program was actually used in this election, but there's a rotten smell emanating from Florida.
The programmer's dog has since died under suspicious circumstances.
