Anyone Notice that the SOS site is missing counties?

[merh]

I went on line out of curiosity to review the election results for Harrison County. It is not on the SOS's website

======================================================
2004 GENERAL ELECTION RESULTS

Below are images of results of the Mississippi 2004 General Election. Included are: certified county-level results in all applicable races.

=======================================================

I find it odd that Harrison County isn't available. Also, it looks like the results of only 73 counties are listed and don't we have 82?

Just wondering why not all of Mississippi's election results are not available on the SOS's site? How much padding went on in Mississippi?

1. ...Mississippi?

Most people would think you insane for suggesting any foul play in Mississippi, of all places. BUT, and I've said this time and time again, I'm suspicious of the results there. I remember on election night, CNN was calling states based on exit polls; they called West Virginia, North Carolina, Indiana, Illinois, various northeastern states, but there were two that were "Too close to call" based on exit polling, or based on SOMETHING. Ohio and Mississippi. It struck me as very, very odd that Mississippi would be "too close to call" for any reason, and then that Kerry would LOSE. Is it possible that the South WAS actually competitive for us? I know that the last poll in Mississippi DID show Bush losing ground and Kerry gaining it - not enough for Kerry to win, but within 9%, which is pretty telling because Bush got 58% there in 2000 and this poll (ARG, by the way) showed him with only 51%, and Kerry with 42% while Gore had received 41% (well, 40.7% - and Bush actually received 57.6%, but I rounded).

I actually just took a look at your county map, and I find it funny that you have so many counties named after old politicians - Adams, Jefferson, Lincoln, Hancock, Jackson, Clay, Calhoun, Washington, Madison, and that you have two counties named George and Harrison right by each other.

Er. Yeah. I'm amused easily.

2. We have a city named after a Polish general, Kosiescko too.

The repugs here were nervous, the pre-election polling showed us purple. We have a large African American population and the Magnolia Bar (African American organization) had a press conference advising that they would have representatives at the minority polling places to answer questions and to help if anyone attempted to stop voters from casting a ballot.

I know of one polling place in Harrison County that "ran out of ballots" and was closed for a couple of hours. Many minorities voted or tried to vote at the polling place, but since they "ran out of ballots" around the lunch hour, many did not get the chance to vote.

Mississippi ties to the shrub and the RNC are very strong. Our repuke governor worked in St. Raygun's admin, he was the head of the RNC and one of the richest lobbyists in Washington DC (he still has ownership in the corporation). He helped the shrub's campaign for governor, was a campaign adviser to the shrub in 2000, helped the shrub prepare for his last debate and for his speech at the RNC convention, and word was, he was in strategy meetings with the Shrub and his campaign during the last few weeks of the campaign.

The repuke gov has totally short changed the education budget and pushed for legislation that did away with medicaid, cutting off thousands in the state who relied on it for their health care.

From what I am told, Kerry got more votes than Gore did in Mississippi.

Yes, I do believe Mississippi was used to pad the shrub's totals and I wouldn't doubt that we actually went blue. I saw more Kerry/Edwards signs and bumper stickers than B/C stickers and signs.

I just want to look at the totals.
