Ohio recount volunteers allege electoral tampering, legal violations and possible fraud

‘Why were there stickers on ballots in Clermont County, Ohio?’

By Larisa Alexandrovna | RAW STORY Staff

Serious new election tampering allegations have emerged from an Ohio county, where witnesses allege that stickers were placed on presidential election ballots, RAW STORY has learned.

Several volunteer workers in the Ohio recount in Clermont County, Ohio have prepared affidavits alleging serious tampering, violations of state and federal law, and possible fraud. They name the Republican chief of Clermont’s Board of Elections and the head of the Clermont Democratic Party Priscilla O’Donnell as complicit in these acts.

These volunteers, observing the recount on behalf of the Greens, Libertarians and Democrats, assert that during the Dec. 14, 2004 hand recount they noticed stickers covering the Kerry/Edwards oval, whereas the Bush/Cheney oval seemed to be “colored in.”

Some witnesses state that beneath the stickers, the Kerry/Edwards oval was selected. The opti-scan ballots were then fed into the machines after the hand recount. . .

6. Have they actually filed a suit?

11. I have same question.

Doesn't appear that way to me.

[merh]

7. Maybe it is called vetting and getting as much evidence

and as many affidavits as possible. The witnesses are terrified.

8. Very Good Point !!!

Makes a lot of sense. And maybe we will see more come out..

9. You're correct. You can't just jump the gun on something....

like this. It has to be done the right way or it can totally backfire.

IMHO, this is fabulous news!

10. Maybe so, but even an inkling might have been nice! n/t

[merh]

12. This was originally reported weeks ago by buzzflash, kos,

and at other websites. The links, stories were pulled to protect the witnesses and in an attempt to bolster the evidence (more witnesses and more affidavits).

13. Is your headline misleading?

I didn't read anything about a new suit being filed. Granted, I have squabbling children in the background so I could have missed it.

14. I misread it--you're right. Affidavits and allegations made against both

REP and DEM officials, but apparently not in a suit...at least not yet.

15. Conyers has asked for an FBI investigation

...the FBI did investigate Triad and supposedly found nothing.

16. do you have a link for that?
