  • An Open Letter To The Congress of the United States of America:
    11 November 2004 par (Open-Publishing)
    1 comment

    Dear Congressperson,
    There is massive mis-trust of the equipment and tactics used in the election on November 2nd, 2004, and in the electoral primaries.
    The glue that holds this country together is the right to vote and have it be counted. That glue is being severely tested by an earthquake of massive proportions because results generated in a computer can not be trusted. It is time for in-depth investigation of exactly what occurred, and absolutely un-violable methods and procedures to (…)

    No link on the Bev Harris story...just an e-mail from her saying
    such...there are also several other states in which voters will be
    challenging the counts and the machines...those states to include
    Colorado, Nevada, Nebraska, New Mexico, Iowa, West Virginia,
    Missouri, Arkansas, Virginia and North Carolina (which may be forced
    to redo the election entirely)...more as it becomes available...

  • LABOR NEEDS "THAT VISION THING"

    By David Bacon
    There’s no question that labor pulled out all the stops to defeat George Bush. Over 2000 members of the country’s largest union, the Service Employees (SEIU), left their jobs to go campaign in battleground states, and the organization budgeted $65 million for the campaign. The AFL-CIO itself fielded 5000 fulltime staffers and 225,000 volunteers.
    That made Bush’s victory a hard one to swallow. For many of the most progressive leaders of US labor, however, it was more (…)

    Are the provisional ballots in Ohio being thrown out? A new rule for counting provisional ballots in Cuyahoga County, Ohio was implemented on Tuesday, November 9 at approximately 2:30 in the afternoon, according to election observer Victoria Lovegren.
    The new ruling in Cuyahoga County mandates that provisional ballots in yellow packets must be “Rejected” if there is no “date of birth” on the packet. The Free Press obtained copies of the original “Provisional (…)

    Dear Politicasso ,
    We know many of you are angry and frustrated about the election last Tuesday, and are deeply concerned about the stories appearing online and in the news media about problems with the voting process in states like Ohio. As the New York Times said, "the mechanics of our democracy remained badly flawed ... the election system was far from what voters are entitled to." And, it sure appears that many Americans, once again, have lost confidence in our nation’s election (…)

  • Vote Fraud likely in both President and Senate Races

    Analysis of the Nation’s Senate races yield mores anomalies in favor of the Republicans. Looking at Florida’s election results, I noticed the Senate race was very close, with the Democrat Betty Castor losing in a nail-biter 49-48%, only 78,221 votes short.
    Then I noticed that the total number of votes for Senate was quite a bit less than in the presidential race. 253,105 people voted for president but failed to cast a ballot for senator. Interesting.... so I analyzed all of the Senate (…)

    Valid Outrage
    by Manuel Valenzuela
    If you are still upset at the resounding defeat of humanity that occurred on November 2, 2004 you have every right to be. On that day billions of us lost a most important battle through both the vote of the ignorant, unenlightened among us and the systemic fraudulent manipulation of electronic-voting machines which, it is becoming more and more apparent, helped steal victory, for the second time in four years, for George W. Bush and the (…)
