Imagine this! A recount from the memory of 8 Sequoia DREs in Monmouth Co. New Jersey gave the same results as the original count. Of course, no one can say that either count is accurate just that they agree. / States designated as high risk in a newly released CommonCause report, because they use DREs with no paper backup, are: Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. / A statewide primary on Diebold TSx machines will be held in Utah next Tuesday. …

You are going to have to change the name of this blog to “we can’t vote because they cheat” “election coverage all the time” We lose that means they must have cheated” Get over it, “No one likes your positions” and we will not vote for them. You keep electing the same corupt people over and over.(Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, if Kerry was so much against the war in Iraq. How come I saw every chow hall table full of no less then 10 Heinz products in Iraq?
Future headline just in….
Utah E-Vote goes smoothly despite glitches.

These machines are programmed to stay the course. These numbers don’t run.
Who wants to cut and run to a hand count? I mean would it really be all that good to really know … when faith is such a good thing?
Why do you voting rights people hate faith so much? It is better for democracy to die in the faith than be unpatriotic and distrust your wonderful election officials using wonderful machines that bring good numbers to those in the faith.
You are doin a heckuva job faith machine crusaders, so do not let paper ballots nor hand counts get in the way of your faith.
Dredd is SOO right. Having actual counts of the paper ballots (if only there WERE paper ballots) and having the results show a disparity between the electronic voting/counting and the paper voting/manual counting would give comfort to our enemies and give arguments to the terrorists that Democracy isn’t working perfectly.
If we count the votes, the terrorists will win. You’re either WITH the Republican election thieves, or your with the terrorists. True Americans don’t challenge election results unless the Republican LOSES.

(Maybe it’s time to start a little ‘insurgency’ here at home? Maybe voters should bring their knives to the next election — they really screw up the touchscreens when you run them across the top. So too does dropping a Big Gulp on one.)
Of course, 2 fabrications will match. It’s like matching what Bush says to what the MSM says, and disregarding reality.
Bush/Cheney say Iraq’s going well, the MSM say Iraq’s going well……..Iraq government declares Baghdad a state of emergency!!!
Big Dan — no need to worry, the “State of Emergency” is a LOCAL issue, it won’t be reported to the U.S. funders of the war (that is, the US population). And, if by chance it is mentioned, it will NOT be in the context of the Republican Administration’s views of how rosy everything is.
Look for foreign reports to be asked to leave soon from Iraq, then “Video Press Reports” will be provided by the Iraq Govt that can be broadcast showing how good it is.
“We must NOT let reality interfere with our interpretation of things or our plans.” (Standard Republican Administration viewpoint)
I think the biggest problem for the Republican Administration now is they can’t decide between Iran, North Korea or Venezuela as the next point of contact.
Paper ballots, hand counted, in public view….cheap, transparent and can be done immediately. We should push against this criminal takeover of our government until we succeed no matter how long it takes. There really is no conceding on vote fraud; our lives and our children’s futures depend upon it.
we saw what happens when we do that in FL 2000.
No we didn’t.
