Question for Ohio Voters
I know it's kind of confusing in your state right now, and I'm sure you have plenty to do there that most of us are completely unaware of. But I have a question. If it's been answered elsewhere, I don't know, if so, I apologize.

I've read that Blackwell is, in addition to being the SOS in Ohio that he was also the chair of the RNC there in Ohio. I don't know if that's illegal, but I suspect it should be. Is there any avenue of recourse that can be done as a result of potential voter fraud and his handling both jobs at the same time? I mean we know he's an evil SOB, but shouldn't he have been eliminated from one of the two positions before the election as a conflict of interest? And if not, is there an option to either "recall" or suspend him for having that violation of conflict of interest?

I would hope that regardless of the outcome of the recount there, that someone needs to speak up and condemn this guy for not being able to remain objective about the election votes. It's like Wally O'Dell all over again, promising the state of Ohio would "be delivered" to GWB.

3. Not the "Ohio RNC" but the Bush/Cheney04 campaign
A difference without meaning?

4. Heh--sounds like there really isn't
much difference. But what do I know? I'm just a Democrat.
