Look here for the provisional ballot numbers

That's the link.

At the moment, there are over 135,000 provisional ballots. However, the large, Democratic strongholds of Lucas, Summit, and Mahoning counties have not reported their provisional ballot numbers yet.

Using Stark county as a weighter, it looks like Summit will probably bring in around 10,000 more, Lucas will bring in about 8,000 and Mahoning about 4,500. Very, very rough estimates, there, I didn't even use a calculator (but what was the point since I was using Stark as a model anyway). So, basically, what I'm saying is that we're going to get probably around 20,000-25,000 more provisional ballots from our stronghold counties, probably bringing the total over 160,000.

Plus, there will be provisionals from other counties.

1. I heard 90%

were ultimately accepted in '00.

We can't concede this until every single Goddamn vote is verified and counted...and if there it is indicated fraud occured, we go after that as well.

4. That is correct. Also, only the opposition had challengers in place

which is fairly indicative that only Democratic voters were challenged. That's a good sign that the large majority of those provisional ballots will go to Kerry.

7. Did Democrats challenge ANY voters in Ohio?

If not, could we assume that the majority of those provisional ballots will go to Kerry? Are ALL the provisional ballots from voters who were being challenged?

8. I don't think so.

It's a pretty safe bet that at least 80% of those provisionals are Kerry votes.
