Many in the Dem. Party... some even call themselves "liberal"
Edited on Fri Dec-17-04 10:53 AM by brindis_desala
or "lefty" are quite content to see minority voters disenfranchised. When you PURGE legal voters that's FRAUD. When you rig the ballot that's FRAUD. When you put too few machines in Democratic precincts that's FRAUD. This "election", just like this "democracy" is a SHAM!

New Study: More Absentee Votes than Voters in Ohio Sunday, 12 December 2004

Blackwell Locks Out Recount Volunteers December 10, 2004

Voter Suppression: STEALING VOTES IN OHIO URBAN AREAS (full documentation) by Richard Hayes Phillips, Ph.D. December 3, 2004

Ohio tally fit for Ukraine - We learned, for example, that an additional 93,000 voters had gone to the polls yet machines had registered no preference of theirs for President. Only a manual recount can tell us for sure what happened to those 93,000 ballots.
When the poll watcher flipped open the books, she saw that lots of people had been allowed to vote but had not signed the books. This struck her as very odd, of course, since by law people have to sign in to verify that they are authorized to vote.
Soon, the board of elections head in Pickaway came by, took the books away from her, threatened her with arrest. When the woman responded that the Elections supervisor was breaking the law, the supervisor rezponded that Ken Blackwell had just told her to take the books away from the watcher.

The Ohio Factor: Did Homeland Security and the FBI interfere With the Vote Count? Wednesday, November 10th, 2004 from Democracy Now!

Ohio Vote Fraud: More Bush "Voters" Than Residents in precincts in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, In last Tuesday's election, 29 reported votes cast IN EXCESS of the number of registered voters - at least 93,136 extra votes total. And the numbers are right there on the official Cuyahoga County Board of Elections website:

Ohio Poll Worker on the Rigged Vote Saturday, November 06, 2004 - Touch screen voting machines in Youngstown OH were registering "George W. Bush" when people pressed "John F. Kerry" ALL DAY LONG. This was reported immediately after the polls opened, and reported over and over again throughout the day, and yet the bogus machines were inexplicably kept in use THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

- The media was kept two floors away from the vote counting at the Warren County Administration on election night on the basis of a “10” FBI terror threat that the FBI says was never issued.

Oklahoma
Tulsa World on Oklahoma Vote Totals: We Have No Idea by Mark Faulk Nov 30, 2004 - On November 3, the Tulsa World reported that Sen. John Kerry was winning in 57 Oklahoma counties with 70% of the vote counted. But, by the time the rest of the votes were added in (or subtracted out, as the case may be), George W. Bush carried every county in Oklahoma, one of only two states where he managed that feat. (there's more..)

Educate yourself or don't call yourself a lefty or a liberal.

1. Man, I know I'm going to get flamed for this..... but here goes....
Disclaimer: This is not how I personally feel about it.

Here goes....

The reason why the MSM and more of the public isn't fighting against the fraud in Ohio is that the only people that they see on the television is Jesse Jackson, Rep. Conyers, et al. The public thinks this is just another moment in the sun for the "uppity {insert n-bomb}".
