Bennett blames prosecutor for rigged-recount convictions

Cuyahoga County elections Chairman Bob Bennett charged Tuesday that County Prosecutor Bill Mason's office failed in its duty to provide sound legal advice to the elections board, exposing two workers to criminal convictions in a recount rigging case.

Bennett said records show that the assistant prosecutor Mason assigned to the elections board knew of problems in the recount for five days but said nothing to Board of Elections officials he was supposed to represent.

Instead, Bennett said, board meeting transcripts and testimony from the trial of the two workers show that Assistant Prosecutor Reno Oradini helped the prosecutor's office build a criminal case against people he was supposed to represent.

"Never do they say to the board, this issue comes up, wait a second," Bennett said...

1. Keep Fighting Bennett! Take it public

Bennett is just like bush & Rove fighting subpoenas.

Ah, BTW the defendants get their legal advice form their lawyers
not from the prosecutor. Nice defense :rofl:

2. Fitrakis & Wasserman ignore the real problem in Cuyahoga 2004. Why?

OHIO 2004: 6.15% Kerry-Bush vote-switch found in probability study

Counting votes other than as intended, due to wrong-precinct voting (or due to ballots being swapped to the wrong precinct) is not even mentioned by these authors. Like Blackwell, they ignore the real problem in Cuyahoga, Kery votes counted for Bush.

I cannot understand or explain why they ignore this, ongoing now since 2004.
