Almost 1 1/2 year after the vote we see can't see the raw data? What are they
hiding?

Look Dems w/ spines:

In what appears to be the only known case of the Democratic Party itself (to our brain-addled knowledge anyway, since we've been on the road for the last several days for last minute super-secret meetings that have left us exhausted for the moment), the Alaska Dems and the DNC Alaska Communications Director have announced a lawsuit is being filed to demand the state release election records from 2004.

According to the Division of Elections' vote reports that were produced by the state's Diebold computer system and are posted on the Division's official web site, a far larger number of votes were cast than the official totals reported in the statewide summary. In the case of President George Bush’s votes, the district-by-district totals add up to 292,267, but his official total was only 190,889, a difference of 101,378 votes. In the U.S. Senate race, Lisa Murkowski received 226,992 votes in the district-by-district totals, but her official total was only 149,446, a difference of 77,546 votes.

In 20 of the 40 State House Districts, more ballots were cast than there are registered voters in the district, according to information on the state's web site. In 16 election districts, the voter turnout percentage shown is over 200%.




200% turn outs?

4. the 04 election was so dirty and yet "the media & the american people"

still don't know or want to know about the level of corruption.

I live in Ohio, I should know. We had a county (Perry) that had precincts with 126% turn outs ....
move along .... nothing to see here ..... move along.

We have the proof. We do we get to see the the trial?

5. I'm in FL.

I feel guilty as hell, actually!

8. In a state with a population of 600,000

Thats one hell of a disparity!

[roguevalley]

13. given that there's only about 600,000 of us, agreed. :))))))

3. What TOOK them so long?

:banghead:

9. They've been trying to get these results since 2004

The state has the far refused to produce them. First they said they could not because the data actually belonged to Diebold. That was revealed to be an entirely ridiculous argument, so then the state said they couldn't release the results because it was a "security risk." Not even sure what they mean by that. So the Alaska Democratic party has been working on this but has so far been stonewalled. Makes you wonder what the state has to hide?

10. Like we have to wonder...

I'm glad to know it wasn't brushed aside. I just hope there's no statute of limitations on it that preents anything from being done. Wasn't that the result of some other attempt to sue over elections snafus?

7. Thanks for noticing, Botany.

:) Alaska's Democrats may be small in number (allegedly), but we're feisty. Here is my post in the Elections forum about this, with photos (down thread a ways) of our protest day before yesterday.

17. O.K.

So the vote was in Nov of 04 and the data is still not out in Mid April of 06 ..... so what
They have to keep Alaska safe from al Qaeda by not releasing the 2004 vote count.

Only one ?. Why do you hate America?

[bleever]

18. Only kicking because my foot has that itchy "election fraud fungus".

Who owns the votes?

I thought it was Americans.
