The Hartford Currant: A Certain Outcome (Editorial)
A Certain Outcome

January 23, 2005
By Jeff Schult
The Hartford Currant

-snip-

Summing up all the allegations, a lawsuit filed on behalf of 37 Ohio voters by the Alliance for Democracy concludes that Bush, rather than winning the state by 118,000 votes, actually lost to Kerry by more than that.

The federal Government Accountability Office is investigating. So is the FBI.

-snip-

Connecticut's own Secretary of the State, Susan Bysiewicz, is a great deal more accessible than Blackwell, who reportedly does business out of a 12-story building in Columbus that is neither owned by the state nor open to the public.

-snip-

Well, I guess Bush did. Almost certainly ...

Kerry was warned, everybody knew what might be coming and he was totally unprepared and had noones back.

7. He save $15 million from his GE campaign funds...
One theory was that he was going to use them in post-election court fights.

I do think he sent $250,000 to help with the court cases in Ohio, but don't remember the exact nature of the donation. :shrug:

8. Please
Lawsuits go nowhere.

Election reform will NOT happen with corrupt Republicans in the majority and coward Democrats in the minority.

New Voter Registration is worthless with Diebold machines.
