Stolen Election: ON TV

[BeFree]

CBS is currently airing a fictional show called "Numb3rs" (EST) about a stolen election in Los Angeles.

Seems the producers of this show are quite up to speed on how computers can be used to steal votes. The FBI is involved and several people are believed to have paid the ultimate price for their knowledge. Check it out.

1. It is really good when these discussions go mainstream.

2. Yeah

The show ran down how one computer's code can corrupt all the other machines.

Gawd, have we come a long way or what? The bad guys who see this on TV are gonna be rethinking their whole scenario... the cat's been let out of the bag, and DU is somewhat responsible, I'm sure.

4. DU is very responsible.

I first was linked this little site years ago, people talking about election anomalies. I was hooked pretty quickly. :)

6. There are a lot of people responsible- many have worked tirelessly for years on this

Thousands of phone calls and emails to media, screaming at politicians, begging people to listen, taking to strangers about whether their vote counted, coming from all over the country since 2000 but for me it was since 2002 when those horrible machines first arrived in Florida. I knew then that the machines were rigged. I experienced it personally. We should all be very proud- our efforts did pay off. WE did this- the people-- and it took us about 4 years but we finally have reached critical mass.

Irony of ironies... life repeating art, repeating life, repeating art...Even down to the evil guy chopping wood. Here's to Ridley Scott.

10. OMG! THIS SHOW IS ONLINE AND FREE TO WATCH!

Just about fell out of my chair in disbelief! Didn't see this episode yet, but I think the plot centers around a high-tech vote-ringing scheme linked to criminals.

It really is a turning point in the culture when political situations like these get used as plots for TV shows and films. A program like this could have a much bigger impact than hundreds of news reports. This is a big deal.

DUers please rate this up to the top of the Greatest Page please.

Great broadband picture quality and stereo, too. Big thanks to Jade for the link and BeFree for the thread.
