New Article: (Yahoo) Ohio Recount Resembles Florida in 2000
At least they are talking about the FBI, etc...


By JOHN NOLAN, Associated Press Writer

"CINCINNATI - In a scene reminiscent of Florida circa 2000, two teams of Republican and Democratic election workers held punch-card ballots up to the light Wednesday and whispered back and forth as they tried to divine the voters' intent from a few hanging chads.


Observers for the presidential campaigns of John Kerry (news - web sites), President Bush (news - web sites) and Green Party candidate David Cobb kept watch from chairs a few feet away.


The scene is being repeated statewide this week in a recount in the state that put Bush over the top in the election last month."

<snip>
"Also Wednesday, Rep. John Conyers (news, bio, voting record), D-Mich., a senior Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee (news - web sites), urged the FBI (news - web sites) to investigate possible election tampering in Hocking County involving an employee of TRIAD Governmental Systems Inc., the company that wrote the voting software used in 41 of Ohio's 88 counties."
