5. Let's hope this becomes a big issue
for people. We need to be able to trust our ballots are being counted fairly and accurately. Only if the press stays on this story will it become important to our citizens. If they ignore it so will most of the Joe Blows of this country, unfortunately. Hard to compete with American Idol and Britney, but I'd like to see the media get as fired up about this as say, immigration.

There's no question in my mind that Ohio was rigged in 2004 - mechanically and by not having enough voting machines in poorer districts,etc. and all the little shit they did that combined to produce the result they wanted. Exit polls had Kerry as the winner and suddenly we can't trust exit polls again for the second time in four years. Only time in history...

Yeah, they fucked with the machines where they could and fucked with the voters where they couldn't get their hands on the machines. The Supreme Court broke my heart in 2000 and I was so angry after 2004, I don't know what I'll do if they steal it again.

:cry:
