Widespread manipulation of absentees and provisionals>>big swing in Florid
There was widespread manipulation of absentee and provisional votes in many counties by partisan officials and poll workers in Florida(and other states) that swung large numbers of votes. Also purge of voter roles(using excuse of inactive voters) but applied arbitrarily and with obvious bias by partisan officials and also part of big swing, and also similarly regarding new registrations-large numbers who registered were not put on the roles-apparently depending on what party they registered for. This was in addition to widespread vote machine fraud and dirty tricks throughout the state. Similar also found in other states. This wasn't a real democratic election. Just a formality before announcing "winners".

1. A formality before announcing Another gang rape of our Constitution...
...and our American franchise of democracy, would be the way I would classify the actions of the Bush theocratic NeoCONsters.


But, that's just one view of the crimes.

Peace.


BE THE BU$H OPPOSITION; 24/7 -- if only there were more hours in the day!!

2. The last link documents similar in Ohio, New Mexico, & etc.
and has evidence contrary to the Cleveland paper story claiming the suppression wasn't as serious as claimed. Actually the absentee and provisional vote swing in Ohio was very large, similar to Florida- but the absentee issue hasn't gotten enough attention.
And most of the 2/3 of provisional votes rejected were pure manipulatin by officials to not count of eligible voters who just happened to belong to the wrong party. There was extreme partisanship obvious in Ohio, Florida, New Mexico, etc.

5. Lots of play in those absentee ballots.
You could cut the potential for fraud by 95% if you would just create one database to hold ALL the registered voters, instead of allowing each county to monitor their own AND close early elections the day or two prior to election day to give them time to update their records.

7. Could you join us on the Conyers Legislation thread?
Conyers Legislation is dealing with this issue in some way.

I'd like to get your opinion.
