Computer problems reported at some early voting sites
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 10:44 AM by DropTheGloves
Problems were being reported at nine of 14 early voting sites in Broward County on Monday morning.

Gisela Salas, of the Broward Elections Office, said workers were having problems with a live database connection that is used to verify that a voter is properly registered.

4. Jeb fired Oliphant, didn't he? He has an appointee in charge now.
Gee, you would think they would be doing a good job since Oliphant was so bad.

5. That's only a 64% failure rate
two weeks before the election. Is that's good enough for you Jeb?

Seriously, how can they even pretend that elections on Diebold machines will be fair? They've had 4 years to fix the problems and they failed miserably.

12. They Are Stealing Florida Again
We really need to step up our efforts in those states that still have free elections.
If it comes down to Florida, it will be 2000 all over again.
