2. I don't disagree
but we need a nationwide count first.

Another area we need to look at is the organized interstae pattern of voter suppresion which is a Federal Offense (felony)

5. i think so too. actually a NATIONWIDE AUDIT.
not recount the word has bad vibes assoc with 2000. and slimy j baker cant say we audited once we audited twice. :)

if we are not crazy and NH turns up phony then maybe we can start to get some traction.
if NH turns out to be a wild goose chase Im afraid our gooses may get cooked.

at any rate keep up the pressure. call, write, email congressmen, tell friendsa, relatives, neighbors and coworkers, respond to articles. we need to pull this into the light.

Can we at least not recount Washington DC? that was pretty conclusive.

8. Question about Ohio deadline
Question: On http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6460869/ it says about Ohio "The state gives boards until Dec. 1 to count and certify every vote. The state has set up a toll-free number for voters to find out if their ballot was counted and if not, why." So what happens if it isn't certified by the 1st? Are their electoral votes void? Another election? Anybody know?

9. From a post in the Voting Problems Forum
Edited on Thu Nov-11-04 03:44 PM by althecat
Speaking for myself now I can clearly say that I am not remotely intimidated by today's media onslaught.

In fact I am delighted by it - Peter Jennings, Ann Coulter and all.

This shillish corporate media that for years has refused to report that this issue even existed - even though it was being reported to them in lurid detail by numerous researchers and computer boffins - has today been forced to bring its narrowminded prejudice into public view.

They are doing so not because they want to. But because they can feel a growing force of public opinion that they will ignore at their peril.

In opening the door publicly to VOTE FRAUD 2004 they have opened up a pandora's box that they will never be able to close.

Doubt has now been seeded over the validity of this election. A question of imponderable importance has been asked and the Media must now answer it.

So far as I am concerned it is now necessary for the legislatures of every state implicated in this affair to hold an inquiry into this election i.e. a recount, whether asked or not - not in order to establish and prosecute fraud, but simply in order to restore confidence in the electoral system.

The contract of Democracy between people and government in the United States is broken. It needs to be restored to full health.

John Kerry's advisors are fools if he does not see the enormous political advantages that such an enterprise can bring him.

Afterall what are we asking... simply that all the votes are counted. Who can disagree with that.

And this needs to happen now - in the full glare of all the media - in front of the world.

How can America bring freedom and democracy to the world if its own is crumbling and failing?

10. a recount is insufficient and, in many cases, impossible . . .
what we need is a full-scale audit of the election to find all of the different ways they cheated and to make the American people aware of them . . . everything from voter intimidation to counties where the vote exceeded the registered voters . . . a complete expose that shows the country once and for all what these people are all about . . .

12. It's not our problem if these thieves
Edited on Thu Nov-11-04 05:39 PM by DoYouEverWonder
can't recount all the votes. Then they can't prove anybody won. Oh what a shame.

RECOUNT ALL THE VOTES.
