Carteret County will vote again!!!
Elections in NC are fucked.

http://www.newsobserver.com/politics/v-text_newsletter/story/1889667p-8222010c.html

"The candidates for the agriculture job didn't know what to say about the surprise decision in their contest, which was thrown into turmoil when 4,400 ballots were lost by a voting machine in Carteret County. Republican challenger Steve Troxler has a 2,300-vote lead over incumbent Democrat Britt Cobb in the statewide tally."

1. Wow!
OK - I am going to be fascinated to see if there will be a substantial change in the Bush and Kerry percentages. I really, really hope that exactly 25,575 voters turn out to vote again...

Cateret County, North Carolina
George W. Bush / Dick Cheney 17,716 Votes (69.27%)
John F. Kerry / John Edwards 7,732 Votes (30.23%)
Michael Badnarik / Richard Campagna 100 Votes (00.39%)
Walt Brown / Mary Alice Herbert (Write-In) 22 Votes
Ralph Nader (Write-In) 5 Votes
David Cobb (Write-In) 0 Votes

4. So, the agriculture chief position is more important...
Than that of US president...right, now I get it!

The machines counted just fine in the presidential race but were rather "temperamental" in the extremely decisive agricultural chief election.

The 2004 American election will go to the history books as the biggest scam ever perpetrated in a so called democracy!
