Nader-Camejo Hand Recount in New Hampshire Ends With No Significant Discrepancies
New Hampshire�s optical scan machines predate Diebold�s purchase of company that manufactured them

Washington, DC: The Nader-Camejo hand recount in New Hampshire ended Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. when the last of the 11 selected wards was counted. Nader-Camejo requested recounts on Nov. 5 in precincts where the Diebold AccuVote optical scan machine was used, and where the reported vote count favored President George W. Bush by 5% to 15% over what was expected based on exit polls and voting trends in New Hampshire. The Nader-Camejo campaign received more than 2,000 faxes from citizens urging a recount.

1. Periodically there are gross errors, but really the optical scans aren't

that bad. We use them here in Waukesha and let me tell you, the counts accurately reflect the area.

With Diebold having anything to do with owning any company these days, ya just don't know what to believe anymore....
