Explosive new vote fraud developments continue to rock Ohio and Florida

March 23, 2007

Breaking news in vote fraud cases in both Ohio and Florida are feeding a firestorm of controversy that is likely to continue escalating, with major implications for the 2008 election and the future of e-voting machines.

In Ohio, Jennifer Brunner, the newly elected Secretary of State, has received two of the four resignations she requested from the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections (BOE). The two Democrats on the Board, Edward Coaxum, Jr. and Loree Soggs, have complied with her call for their departures from Cleveland's scandal-ridden election authority.

However, Robert Bennett, who chairs both the Cuyahoga BOE and the Ohio Republican Party, has thus far refused Brunner's request. So has Sally Florkiewicz, Bennett's fellow Republican on the BOE. Should they continue with their refusal to resign, Brunner has threatened to hold public hearings, in the wake of which she could force the resignations.

1. I wish they'd use "election fraud" - this is to close to "voter" BS. K&R

2. Public hearings sound wonderful.. n/t

3. 18,000 bogus ballots in Florida in a hotly contested race.

And it was no coincidence that it was for Katherine Harris' vacated seat.

How long have we been trying to get them to do something about this? :eyes:

4. You know what's funny?

Some here on DU believe John Kerry lost in 2004:

"In the 2004 election, the exit polls showed John Kerry winning, while the actual machine and computer tabulated results gave the state to Bush by 118,000 votes.

<SNIP>

These waves of breaking news about serious problems in the conduct of the 2004 and 2006 elections, and in the performance of electronic voting machines in the two states that have decided the last two presidential elections, make it a virtual certainty that we have barely begun to see the full extent of what has really been done to the American democratic system."

5. Get them a copy of Dorothy Fadiman's "Stealing America"

Entertaining documentary of all the facts, all the key players.

Hear the fabulous words of Bob Novak (yes, that Bob Novak) as he calls the election for Kerry. (Yes, for Kerry!)

Watch the citizens of New Mexico declare their state to be an E-Vote free Zone!

Laugh along with Jon Stewart as his top news reporter says that Bush won't let the "Numbers" stop him from becoming President and leading America forward.

Watch the MSM unashamedly flip flop while patting itself on the back for initiating "crucial reforms" that won't allow their misjudgements of 2000 re-occur. (Oh of course not! They weren't about to let the same thing that happened in Florida in 2000 happen again (Nope: Same thing only different.)

6. what are the ramifications if it's proven that Bush won neither the 2000 nor the 2004 election? . .

and/or that 9/11 was either orchestrated or facilitated by BushCo elements? . . .

and/or that the invasion and occupation of Iraq was thoroughly illegal under international and U.S. law? . . .

and/or that the massive spying on U.S. citizens is also thoroughly illegal? . . .

and/or that human activity is the #1 cause of the dramatic increase in global warming? . . .

and/or that genetically modified crops are devastating honey bee populations? . . .

and/or that BushCo and its affiliated companies stole several trillion dollars from the U.S. Treasury? . . .

add your own, if you like . . .

just a few rhetorial questions, I guess . . . would there be ANY real consequences if any of these were proven to the satisfaction of the vast majority of Americans? . . . I honestly wonder . . .

8. Can yuo get them to stop watching Ameican Idol

long enough to even ask these questions?

We at DU are painfully aware of these thigns... but most Americans do not even vote.

So don't fool yourself about it

7. Et tu, Brute?

ELECTION fraud, dammit! ELECTION fraud!
