10. As far as I know
Edited on Sat Dec-18-04 12:02 PM by pgh_dem
the official explanation for #1 is that the machines had to be reprogrammed to recount only the presidential race. I figure the reasoning in the law there is so that a discrepancy in the Dog Catcher race on the 3% handcount/machine match wouldn't trigger a full county handcount. It still seems stupid to me, and invites tampering. (edit: of course using this official explanation to cover removal of evidence is a reasonable explanation)

I don't think anybody's even given a BS explanation for the 'cheat sheet'...all coverage of the weirdness in Hocking seems to avoid mentioning that allegation...maybe it lacks confirmation from other BOE employees (whereas it's been acknowledged that Mystery Mike was there)?
