News about the Ohio Statehouse protests |
|
and the hearings today.
I'm pretty disappointed by the turnout of protesters here. There were approximately 14 of us and 6 were from New York. It was horribly cold out there 28 degrees with gusting winds of 22 to 32 mph so I can understand it a little bit. We did get on channel 6 news in Columbus and channel 7 news from Dayton Ohio interviewed several of us and my mom said they did play small portions of them.
At 1:00 we went to the townhall hearings and I watched several people testify. Got there just as Jesse Jackson was leaving. The most interesting part was meeting the Curtis guy that wrote the vote stealing software for Florida in 2000. He demonstrated how it worked and it was pretty simple and anyone who knew the proper sequence of entries to make could cause the total votes to flip to a preset percentage for each candidate.
Wish I had better news about the outcome of todays events.

It's gotta be tough. But we are trying to spread the word out here through the blogs to help. If people made flyers saying...
KERRY MAY HAVE WON OHIO
and distribute them at their coffe shops and churches and train stations, etc.
Luckily, public opinion continues to grow on this. The truth will out!
(This is my first post. What do you think?)

Yes, we do need to get our message out.
It ain't getting any warmer and I hate the cold but it's time to take to the streets.

5. Thanks for braving the wind and cold today. |

My wife and I were at the protest on Sunday. In all we probably had about 75. I wanted to protest at the State House today, but I did not want to miss a minute of the hearing. I'm glad some of you made it.
You missed some great testimony from Cobbs, about possible voter fraud.
Thanks!
