At first I thought little of it....
but the more I read of selections for Kerry turning into selections for Bush this keeps coming to mind. I received this from my ex-significant other's cousin who seems to take pleasure with tormenting me with right wing propaganda.

I recieved the e-mail on October 22, 2004. Personally, I'd like to ask the author a few questions.

2. It's a windows media player file.
Crashes my browser (mozilla on FreeBSD) not an easy
thing to do. But I saved it and it runs in mplayer,
so I don't think it's intentionally screwing you.

6. Well, after these other reports I'm not going to try it -- so, what
does it say? Can you give us a hint, a clue, something?

7. The file is virus free...I scan all my files...
It is windows media. I don't have anything to convert it with.

Basically it is a spoof of someone voting at a DIEBOLD touch screen and it doesn't allow them to select Kerry. First it doesn't select it, then each time they try the button moves. In the end they vote for Bush accidental.
