Ohio election fraud uproar blasting to new level

The bitter battle over the stolen November 2 election in Ohio has turned into a rapidly escalating all-out multi-front war with the outcome of the real presidential vote count increasingly in doubt.<snip>

In addition, new evidence has continued to surface of widespread voter fraud throughout the state. Among other things, a response from Shelby County election officials has confirmed that the county illegally discarded key tabulations from the November 2 vote count. As this county's response is the first of 88 to come from Freedom of Information Act filings, it seems likely evidence of many more illegalities could follow.<snip>

And it gets better (or worse): The reason they cited for pitching the best raw evidence of voting results was to "...save space and avoid confusion..." with the certified results. (And yes, Dear Readers, this is a BLATANT violation of Ohio's Public Records law, which requires the retention of election records for two years)

In other words, the supposition is that the actual Nov 2nd results differed from what was certified by Blackwell!

Hey guys...I'm from Ohio and I'd like to "move-on"...but from what? Every freekin' day this grimy melodrama continues to unravel and its just getting worse and worse.

Is there no end to their mendacity?
