[Wilms]

2. That'll teach him!

:D

[Nutmegger]

3. HOLY FREAKING SHIT!!!

Thanks BradBlog!!!:bounce:

K & R!!!

[MadMaddie]

4. If it impacts one vote...it's flawed..

it's amazing how the repugs dismiss these events...

[sakabatou]

5. BWHAHAHAH!

Oh man, that's very scary, but hilarious at the same time.

[loudsue]

6. Was the voting party a Dem or a repug???

:shrug: The article didn't say...at least not that I saw.

We need this to happen to more of our elected officials, so they'll FINALLY start believing us!!

:kick::kick::kick:

9. Cook wouldn't be Republican. From Tampa Bay Newspapers

website, tbnweekly.com:

PINELLAS PARK – A multi-generation Floridian and incumbent for the lone City Council seat is running against a local activist who never held an elective position.

Councilman Ed Taylor, a licensed funeral director, is pitted against Marshall Cook, who voices concerns for trailer park residents and property overdevelopment.

25. who voices concerns for trailer park residents and property overdevelopmen

Yep Republican all right. This is exactly who they express their support for. That is why they are the Party of Jesus. :crazy:

[highplainsdem]

26. Yes, that's why I said he would NOT be Republican,

not with those concerns. I couldn't find anything that proved he's a Democrat, though -- he could be an independent -- so I couldn't just post that he's a Democrat, even though that seems most likely.

There's another article on the election at

http://www.tbnweekly.com/content_articles/031006_par-01.txt

but the quotes from Cook there were only about the light voter turnout -- nothing more about the vote switching, though the paper may have edited out any further comments he had. That was all I could find through Google News so far.

7. Oh, and happy 500th post Brad. n/t

:hi:

[BradBlog]

18. Wow...Thanks, Wilms!

I didn't even notice! I guess I need to take a break for a while! :-)

[FreedomAngel82]

8. LOL

So he votes for himself and gets the other person's name popping up? LOL. Oh gosh.

[ClayZ]

10. Dang, that is in your face!

Maybe this will kick "Election Fraud" up a notch, if he screams loudly enough!



:wtf:

[magellan]

11. How many times do we have to hear this type of story

...before someone realizes these machines are FUBAR?

[Richard Steele]

12. "A registered voter walks into a bar...

...and makes as much difference as if he had walked into a Diebold voting booth."

[Jack Rabbit]

13. Should any election using those machines be considered valid?

That's a serious question.

[katinmn]

14. Cripes! How many times did that happen?

Interesting that it always happens to the challenger for change.

[texpatriot2004]

15. Thanks Brad for your dedication to this critical issue. So, the

electronic voting machines are still rigged...not surprised, disgusted but not surprised.

[New Earth]

16. LOL

damn fraudulent voters!

i mean voting machines :eyes:


that is too funny....in a bad way of course....

[Nothing Without Hope]

17. Great if the story is allowed to spread so that people find out about it

No surprise that it happened - the surprise would be if word of it was seen anywhere but in the progressive online blogs.

And speaking of progressive online blogs - Brad, your efforts writing and speaking and being the media are essential, inspiring, effective, and very, very appreciated. :patriot: :toast:

[BradBlog]

19. Well, keeping kicking it...

...And other wise making noise with it, and all the other Progressive Non-Corporate News Sites out there!

(And feel free to support 'em financially where you can, as well. Not just me, of course. But speaking from experience, we could *all* use some help these days to keep doing what we're trying to do in being the media! At least until Coca-Cola and Target et al decide to start sponsoring blogs, anyway!)

Thanks for all the supportive kudos and kicks, guys, they really do mean a great deal!

20. KICK for reclaiming our country! n/t

[MelissaB]

22. Kicking from Alabama

:kick:

[EFerrari]

23. And California

:kick:

[sandnsea]

21. just a "glitch", Glitchgate

Not Diebold, these were Sequoia machines. It's Glitchgate and people need to start focusing on all the peculiar machine functioning that CAN be proven, not conspiracies that cannot be proven. The key is to get people's attention on the need to know what's going on inside the machines.

[LuCifer]

24. K&R! K&R! K&R! K&R! K&R! K&R!

K&R!

[Octafish]

27. What's he complaining about?

At least he got to vote.
