Continuing the previous thread… which includes more details on the Election Integrity Broadcast Marathon with Peter B. Collins and Brad Friedman (listen up right here!)
Everyone, please start commenting on this thread now. We want to hear from our dial-up friends, and long threads knock them out of the conversation.
UPDATE FROM BRAD: Feel free to call in as well at 888-573-8372 and let us know how we’re doing! Thanks Kira and 99 for doing a beautiful job here! Jim Cirile to blog a fresh Clint Curtis item shortly I’m told!
First?
IT’S OVER: FOX NEWS SAYS
DEMOCRATS WIN HOUSE
Allen (R) 49.7%, Webb (D) 49.1% in VA Senate; 96% counted
Hi Bluebear2! You’re fast!
KIra,
GW wouldn’t BE there, without Rove. That’s my gist.
There’s someone! Hi Kira, it was getting lonely around here! 😉
Dan too
Dan – how he got there is irrelevant … he is not competent and does not have credentials for the job. He has an IQ of 92. 92!!!! Koko the gorilla has a higher IQ than GWB!!! Hah. Now that should truly embarrass Americans who voted for him.
Okay. Everybody should be getting onto this thread pretty soon. Agent BB2 is lightning fast, but for the slow people I left a link on the first thread.
Hey BB2 – Better First than Frist!
you guys are the BEST…
these results almost prove 2004 was stolen ,don’t you think?
bush is just plane evil, look at All of his actions throughout his life. I.E. branding
Well that was tricky,.. had to rent a U-Haul and move over here,..
=========
One more win in the House and we have the majority,.. once the vote count completed on the west coast we will pickup way more than needed.
We will come up two seats shy to gain a majority to the senate.
We are picking up governorships to the Demo Party.
The only man-date bu$$h has is Guckert/Gannon in the Lincoln Bedroom.
====================

when can impeachment start ?
hey everyone still watching the Curtis Race, just wondering if anyone knows why or has noticed why Volusia County has had a higher tally on the Statewide Website http://enight.dos.state.fl.us/ than on the counties own live-time site in volusia county http://www.volusia.org/election...06/results.asp the other agenices are also reporting based on Volusia Counties website tally…why the state discrepency, and this county is still slightly under 50% reported… oh crap Clint is back on the air now!
Goodness, macaca-man may win? Ugh.
And while they’re impounding those machines in Pennsylvania they really should grab up the ones in Connecticut while they’re at it. THAT guy was claiming to be a democrat for the longest time & it’s possible that not all of the dem’s been cleaned off of ‘im.
Eisenhower wasn’t considered extremely brilliant either.
Nor was Lincoln.
What GW had, was an unchecked, rubberstamping congress, A Blank check…and Rove.
Rove. ZERO credentials outside of Political Operative. The russians had those too.
He’s the power behind GW.
Associated Press:
Howdy MMIIXX. Glad you’re here. I’m of the opinion we have NO CLUE how many people have voted against the rethugs. I don’t think this election is any more fair than any other. I’m certain Rove is giving a few wins out because he really has to – with so much dissent in the country. But It’s still a FIXED game.
We really need the Senate.
Hello everyone. Thought I’d drop by and say Hi on such a fine night. Watching “Little Ricky” concede was really sweet.
czaragorn #10
I remember when Irish would enter “Frist” when he was on top. (I can’t remember his exact name anymore)
OldTurk #13
“The only man-date bu$$h has is Guckert/Gannon in the Lincoln Bedroom.”
ROFLMAO
are these a joke result or fraud ?
Tom Feeney (REP) 22537 50.49%
Clint Curtis (DEM) 22103 49.51%
Totals: 44640 100%
Hey, MEP! Glad to see you!
According to the NYT maps, it’s not looking good for us getting the Senate back. 🙁
Hi Kira ,timezones make it hard to follow everything that going on but its look promising from here .Any inside on Clint ?
Harvey Wasserman!!! One of my HEROes!!
Don’t know about Clint, MMIIXX. Does anybody have a good site to keep up with House Returns?
Bluebear2 #2
You can watch FOX? Strong stomach, I guess.
The new gop msm mandate will be to scapegoat the Dem congress
by blaming them for all that goes wrong & set up for”08″
Did I just hear that jean shit kept her seat ? ? ?
Well it looks like the Boobengrabber gets another 4 years as Ca Gov.
59%/37%
How can ANYBODY with any sense at all cast a vote for a republican this time around? Gahhh.
But with the DREs & EVMs we’ll never know just how many of us are clueless.
Kira #28
God No – baarrfff. Won’t even watch the local newscast on Fox. Just found the headline at Raw Story.
Kira,
How GW got there (ROVE) is not irrelevant, in truth, http://thebradblog.com may actually OWE IT’S EXISTANCE to Karl Rove as well.
#29 JoJ…uh…who’s jean shit? I’m wrackin’ my brain…
Mean Jean Schmidt of Ohio, Joan.. not Kira….
Agent BB2! Say it isn’t so! The 98-pound weakling would be a better governor by far. 🙁
Hey … I know Jean Schitthead. Been watching her for a long time.
Dan, you missed my point. GWB is NOT presidential. PERIOD.
Busby seems to be getting her butt kicked this time….
Well we regained oversight on this Fascist/Nazi bu$$hco regime,.. what was it that cheney said,.. ? If subpoenaed by congress he would be a no show. This unitary executive is about to be knocked down a few notches. Over grown spoiled brat selfish idiot frat-boys.
Let’s refresh our memories:
Schmidt’s Shame
oldturk, dear
I’m glad you managed to get a truck in time! 😛
I’m using yer map instead of chasing all over the net for the news. It’s mellow. Just what I need right now. Mellow. Thanks.
Hey to Brad, BB2, 99, Kira and Big Dan
Am relieved for all of you. Glad that you are unlikely to disapear 🙂 Most of this is thanks to Brad putting himself right out there in such an effective way. Got my fingers crossed. No whiskey needed yet.
MMIIXX
BFM coverage tommorow morning. Don’t know if they will even mention Brad and all the real heros here. Wait and listen I guess.
thanks Sally
mick
What happened with Bowen for Calif. Sec of State ?
With Arnold at the helm,.. come 2008,.. you don’t want to see thoses calif electorals go red.
Yep. Schmidt cheated, for certain. Highest number of votes she could possibly get, on any planet, is three.
Hello Sally! We can’t relax just because Rover allowed a few Dem wins. The egregious rethug machine has disenfranchised hundreds of thousands of voters all over the country as well as whatever they steal/flip on these partisan voting machines/tabulators. It’s all still broken. We’ll just have to wait & see what happens in the upcoming months.
MMIIXX – you’ve probably checked out RAW STORY. They’re doing a good coverage.
100% counted: Webb (D) 49.44 edges Allen (R) 49.42 in VA
We are hearing in parallel voting that Clint is ahead by 20% !!! This is the biggest upset ever. Word has it here in the 24th district that Feeney is freaking out and is afraid that Curtis has the evidence of the vote flip this time. JAIL FOR ALL OF THEM !!!
Emma
emma do you have a link on any of that?
mick
FREAKOUT FEENEY!! WooHoo
Is there a website link, Emma?
No GWB isn’t particularly presidential. And he may very well be impeachable.
We shall see.
The next year is absolutely critical.
The key words of this movement, integrity, transparancy, accountability.
If my words did glow…
Heh, MMIIXX. great minds.
Dan #50
He’s guilty of a lot more than just impeachable offenses. I think all the criminals should be prosecuted & sentences matching their crimes.
A-99,… LINK
Dan said “The next year is absolutely critical.
The key words of this movement, integrity, transparancy, accountability.
If my words did glow”¦ ”
Yes indeed. Totally agreed. And your words do “glow!”
oOoOoO… etc.
Thanks! You didn’t forget! 😀
Don’t shoot me – I’m only the messenger.

I know this is partly a trick hand with much to be done and undone, but I was getting really scared that I’d have to be contacting Amnesty to try get you all out of the concentration camps.
I reakon the numbers have been fudged some, but they can only go so far without having to openly declare themselves dictators. Then the US Millitary would have to back them and thats probably the catch. Would they.
I’m crying. The guy I was campaigning for is losting badly to a real jerk. My state is showing poorly.
My state is the first state that installed unauditable DREs in every precinct.
My state is the one that showed major & very suspicious upsets of popular Democrats in 2002 — swings of 16% away from the polls’ predictions prior to the sElection that year.
I’ll be interested to see Cynthia McKinney’s final report on FOIA info she’s been collecting.
A-99,..
You gotta share with all our cousins.
It’s been a pleasure, good people, but I’m beginning to fade…Boy, it’d be so sweet to wake up to a surprise win in the Senate….
Bless you, Brad!
Impeach & impound, that should be our new rallying cry. Throw the crooks in jail & the machines in the river.
‘night, all!
Sally! Dear friend. It’s comforting to know that you would try to find us if we vanished. Thank you!
I sincerely hope the military would back away from a scenario like that. I know a lot of them are losing respect for this admin.

Joan #61,
While throwing them in the river would be so much fun,
it is not such a Good Idea
From the web:
CURTIS WINS PARALLEL UNIVERSE VOTE!!!!!
But Feeney gains win in terrestrial balloting. Curtis pledges “forensic reconstruction” of vote. No word on Curtis sanity test results.
Sleep tight Joan things should look better in the morning.
Yes, Kira… but only just a couple…. I’m a candied apple freak. 😉
G’night Joan! Sweet dreams.

Thanks for that link BB2. Our Oceans, rivers, lakes & streams are in bad condition these days. Fish species are dying out in record numbers and will no longer be a viable source of food in just a few short decades. If there’s an inhabitable earth for mammals after global warming decimates the surface.

Holy Cow, maybe getting the Senate too? Can we rely on Lieberman to ruin that?
Ha! “Food Porn” I love it. 😛
We NEED the senate. VISUALIZE … OHMMM…
Sweet alluring orbs ,all right.
Bluebear #77
Yes, but haven’t taken nearly as much time there as I would like. Promise to do that, tho. Y’all have done good work over there at the Lair.
Love, Kira
Here’s what I can tell you about Clint Curtis’ race. I was at a Country Club homeowners association/polling place in Volusia County at 7:00AM. I was at the same place in August. I was there straight from open til’ close today running an informal exit poll. (Which is the only kind you can run when the pollsters must be 100 feet away from the door…) This is the largest polling place in Volusia County, with over 3300 registered voters. It encompasses a huge subdivision around a golf course, with a lot of really nice real estate. This precinct is not your average Volusia County neighborhood, as the entire County runs less than half Red, but this precinct has 60% Republican residents. Throughout the day I ran around the parking lot, telling people that I was running an exit poll, and asking if they would answer one question for me, and asking about the congressional race between Clint Curtis and Tom Feeney. Those that answered Clint Curtis, I informed about the votenow2006 website, and I got a bunch of people to sign up for it through me, and many more said they would… Late in the day after the rain started pouring, and at a point where I was unable to get people to respond to my question as they were running for their cars, I added up the numbers I had. On the first count at around 4:30, my exit poll had 210 for Feeney, and 196 for Clint. By the close of the polls, my numbers were 215 Feeney to 206 Clint. (The numbers didn’t change much over the last three hours because the entire time it was pouring rain, which reduced people’s propensity to respond, and to some degree our attempts to run after them…) Having been there all day I estimated that I probably had responses from about a third of the people.
The results came in as 760 for Feeney and 585 for Clint, which equals 1245 votes – of 1386 voters total. Thus 141 people – over 10% of the voters failed to vote on this race… It also means that we got 35.2% of the Clint Curtis voters to respond to the exit poll, while only 28.2% of Feeney’s voters. Of the 965 voters at the precinct which did not respond to my exit poll, 141 – or 14.6% would have not voted at all in this race. This leaves 824 people who voted in the Curtis-Feeney race who did not repond to my poll question. In order for the numbers to come out how they did, Feeney must have had 545 of them, while Clint only had 379. Meaning that of these people, most of which never got a chance to answer my exit poll question due to rain or me being overwhelmed by too many people leaving at once – Feeney carried this group by a margin of 69.5% to 31.5%. I had a feeling there were shenanigans before I even crunched the numbers on this. I don’t know if we’ll get 586 people from this precinct to swear they voted for Clint on Votenow2006, but the numbers just didn’t seem right to me.
Later, watching the returns at the Clint Curtis afterparty, it seemed as though there was a consistent percentage which didn’t change throughout the night. 56.5% to 43.5% was the official count in the precint I was at (which leans much heavier Republican than the rest of the County) and the race stayed 57-43 or 56-44 all night. I couldn’t shake the feeling that there were shenanigans going on all night. Before I left, I spoke with Clint. Apparently I’m not the only one suspecting things may be out of order… He’s received word from other people about things which seem to be somewhat suspicious as well. I can tell you that you won’t be hearing his concession speech anytime soon. These things are going to take some time to work out, but Clint assured me he’s going to be on the case. The networks may call this one, but it’s far from over. Clint Curtis being elected is e-voting’s worst nightmare, and thus his victory probably isn’t going to come without a fight. I told him to count me in.
Kira said …
“We NEED the senate. VISUALIZE “¦ OHMMM”¦”
not “OHMMM” but ohms as in “resistance”,seeing as this will come down to electronic voting machines it seems fitting.
can’t wait to hear the upcoming blog update from Jim C. on Clint Curtis….this is still all smellin strange still…could the zogby polling have had it so wrong?!?! While Dems have been cleanin clocks around the rest of the country?
Thank you Brad for the cheering up. :sniffle: 🙂
You’re right, MMIIXX. Don’t we all know the machines are rigged. They’re no good for voting for many reasons, but one important one is that they require electricity. With brownouts/power failures increasing, they are a bad choice.
I hope Clint’s system busts Feeney’s ass clear into prison.
Pickand Roll #86
Flatly, no. The Zogby poll could not have gotten it so wrong.
Brad,
Please ask a California Democrat (Debra Bowen would be the best choice) the following question: Why did the California State Democratic Party not take a position on Proposition 89? This was the most important proposition in my 56 yrs as a native Californian and the Cal Democrats let us all down (not Bowen of course). This may drive me to quit the party, that is, I now know they are not really serious about getting big money out of the election process.
A-99 #89
He’ll have fun in prison with that name. Teeney-Feeney?
Kira try this “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...ZPY”
Kira #83 – Thanks.
Love you Kira (and 99 and Czaragorn and Joan et al!)
Agent 99
I’d feel like a total bum if I didn’t get you some too.
Aw, thanks, MMIIXX!
I’ll try to remember how to “Look on the Bright Side of Life.”
I am veryy glad for the GOOD SHOW
but all’s I want to know
has CLINT WON YET????????
Love you too, Brad — & all the rest of youse too.
BB2 – mmmmm! You’re a good virtual shopper.
Oh. My. God. BB2!
CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Goodie, yum, goodie, yum, yummmmmm!
Ancient
Clint is, like, radically behind in the returns… BUT he has his verification system in place, and should be able to club Feeney over the head for election fraud… at last… I hope….
Ancient DITTO
99, I thought you would like them.
Thought I’d post this link:

[hope it works.]
Hey,
Where’s Floridiot and Big Dan?
Just wanted to pass this along to Brad and his readers.
Voter intimidation in Louisiana.
1) How you say? Cross Burning.
This is simply disgusting. Multiple crosses have been found burned in parking lots. NAACP and FBI are monitoring polling stations in St. Landry Parish. See links below.
http://www.katc.com/Global/story.asp?S=5642185
http://www.katc.com/Global/cate...;nav=menu209_2
Cross burned turned over to crime lab. http://www.klfy.com/
2) Voter delays at majority African American polling station in Lafayette.
“Some voters casting their ballots at Alice Boucher Elementary School experienced a delay at the polls Tuesday morning.
Some voters claim they were turned away.
They tell us they were told the polls were down.
Lafayette clerk of court, Louis Perret tells us human error caused the delay.
We’re told the problem was fixed promptly and they have seen no glitches since then at this location.”
http://www.klfy.com/Global/stor...8;nav=menu61_1
3) Local media distorts Voter Machine Concerns raised by the HBO documentary.
“One voter we spoke with says the documentary showed how prevalent voting fraud is in electronic voting and even how vote-tampering is possible with computers.
But, Vermilion Parish clerk of court, Diane Meaux Broussard says that’s absolutely not possible.
She says there is no way to tamper with the machine because instead of more like a computer, it’s like an adding machine.
And, she says there’s no way anyone can add votes to the machine before the election, either.”
“Questions about voting machines are not uncommon before an election.”
“The paper-less machines record votes electronically and officials say that makes them more dependable and accurate than older machines.”
http://www.klfy.com/Global/stor...8;nav=menu61_1
Brad, perhaps you could shine a spotlight on the cross burning story going on. People need to know exactly how far people are willing to go to win a Sheriff’s race in a relatively small parish in Louisiana.
Cross burning?
Pardon me… Jezuss FUCK!!!!
That’s worse than unacceptable. I have to barf now. UNBELIEVABLE!
Democrat picks up Tom DeLay’s seat in Texas
YeeHah
looks good for the senate on cnn.
That is truly disgusting, AGGHL.
gw sure would look good in horizontal strpies . . . . .
IFIF& IF . . .Whaddya think? What If ??? The Senate. BFG
hey more stinky stinky…now finally at about 2am EST Seminole Counties #’s have been reported to the state’s eletion website
Seminole Feeney 34,092 Curtis 20,748
odd thing is that the vote count tracking that had been available all night long from a big old link at the bottom of this main page http://www.voteseminole.org/en-us/ is now gone, and their is no way to access the counties vote tallies which had been available up until this point
JOJ
Or maybe pink
Pickand Roll – didya happen to capture the screen images before they took it down?
Webb Claims Victory !
Macaca Allen Looks like he needs to change his shorts . . .
JOJ & BB2 – The Pink Clink. Funny they’re so offended by a color! Give them jobs nobody else wants to do – like sorting recycled garbage, etc. & let them wear an orange jumpsuit for that. Reward them for doing some work.
Yipes! We may actually have the Senate too!!!
Bye-bye filthy fascists.
WIN LOSE OR DIE
YOUR MY GUY.
THANK YOU CLINT
WE ALL OWE YOU!
Had to work earlier tonight but I’ve been reading this and the previous thread and I’ve finally caught up. Finally also got a consistent connection for Brad and Peter’s Election Night Special at The Democratic Daily and I’m listening now. Pretty much good news but Clint and Debra Bowen are at the top of my list of important candidates and those contests are leaving me concerned. Anyway, great job Brad, Peter, Kira, Agent 99 and all the rest of you BradBloggers. Hopefully, with the Dems in charge of, at least, the House of Reps. we can get a real hearing of election integrity concerns and perhaps start making the changes that will put Brad out of work….JUST KIDDING! Even if we somehow do get real election integrity reform Brad’s voice is one that I suspect more and more people will be hearing.
Hello Steve! Glad you finally made it … that’s a lotta readin’ you had to do to catch up!
Well, well, well. This will be interesting.
The cross burning speaks volumes about this administration !
Especially when you look OUR great soldiers.
The Corperate Plantaion Mentality . . .
Hey, Steve, thanks.
BB2, betcha Big Dan fell asleep in front of LINK tv and Floridiot is a darn early riser, so I bet he’s planning on getting in about the time all the returns do.
2 SEATS DECIDE SENATE
Well things have gone much better than I had expected, not everything I was hoping for, but more than I was prepared for.
My alarm goes off in 5 1/2 hours so I’m going to lay this body down now.
Goodnight to all my friends and Ill see you in the morning.
Agent 99, pace yourself with those apples. Sugar rushes can be a real bummer when your trying to sit still.
99
LOL 🙂 🙂
Nighty-night Bluebear2. Sweet dreams [candy apples perhaps?]
See ya later.
G’nite Agent BB2, sleep tight. xoxoxoxox
Raining on their parade!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZSNORKZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Here is another story on the Voter intimidation by way Cross Burning in Louisiana.
http://www.theadvertiser.com/ap...=7326235071869
Can you believe this? The Mayor called the State Police to investigate and told reporters this…
“He (the state trooper) didn’t think it was a hate crime because it was not directed at anyone, because it was done on town hall property,” Coco said. “It could possibly be some kids. We really just don’t know.”
Sure. The incumbant Mayor is black and the Challenger is not. A little cross burning before the election on public property. Must be those crazy kids.
Kira #114 …yes i got i screen shot of seminole counties tallies, i was following it the least earlier…
General Election – November 7, 2006
Optical & Touch Screen Units Reporting: 0 of 256 (includes Early, Absentee)
Results last updated 11-07-06 23:54:46
Tom Feeney Rep 33,200 62.24
Clint Curtis Dem 20,139 37.76
those numbers follow the trend thru the last 1500 or so votes as reflected currently on the states site for the total count for Seminole County….
i just found it strange that as soon as the numbers appeared at the state’s website, that they were no longer accessible from Seminole County’s website like it had been all night
RIP Andy. Thank you.
Thank you Brad for playing MY song – “The Boxer” Simon & Garfunkel 🙂
1. I can’t wait to hear Limboob & Handjobbity tomorrow.
2. Can the Dems propose some kind of federal level consistency in voting, and get rid of e-vote machines?
3. I can’t wait to hear Limboob & Handjobbity tomorrow.
4. We better watch carefully, the Webb/Allen recount, and not celebrate until that is over.
5. I can’t wait to hear Limboob & Handjobbity tomorrow.
6. We better also watch the Montana Senate count.
7. I can’t wait to hear Limboob & Handjobbity tomorrow.
8. Where are all the trolls??? I guess this proves they were shills, since they are now silent. Their “misinformation” mission is now over, since the vote is over.
9. I can’t wait to hear Limboob & Handjobbity tomorrow.
10. I can’t wait to hear Limboob & Handjobbity tomorrow. You’re a great American, Sean!!! I hope the two of you go away, like the Republicans are going away.
Big Dan! Yer up!
Closing in on midnight here. I know it’s near 3AM where you are Kira, but I also know that you are in your element in the wee hours of the night. What time zone are you in Agent 99?
Pickand Roll #132 – that kind of thing happened in ’04. Very suspicious. Glad you got the screenshots.
Yes – many thanks Andy. We remember & appreciate all you did for this movement. Rest in Peace.
Did BB2 make it off the thread or is he just passed out there on aisle #130?
I just saw someone on CNN say there wasn’t many problems with e-vote machines. Apparently, they still can’t be trusted.
Did Clint Curtis win?
Great program Brad and Peter, and all.
Good night, sleep well.
Pacific Time! I can almost dip one toe in the ocean and the other into Oregon. I am northwestern California. 😛
BB2 made it to bed, Kira.
G’night Nana.
Clint Curtis lost… on the face of it, anyway, big dan.
Helloooo Big Dan! Heehee! Funny, we didn’t have a single troll tonight to my knowledge. It’s been great.
Well, Steve, I could be fading!
G’night Nana!
Hey 99, dip a toe into the ocean for me.
Only one, Kira, and he was on John’s thread.
John’s thread? Gideon? Didja help him out?
#131 “those crazy kids” Have Parents Hummmm…
Bowen takes lead just in time to go off the air, and it smells to me like Dems are gonna win the Senate…But it may take a fight.
You guys were GREAT here tonight!
big dan…

Get some sleep Kira. Don’t want you to burn out and disappear from here again!
Agent 99- I live in South Orange County, CA but I’ve traveled thru your part of CA and it is one of my favorite places. Very green.
Well, guess that’s all she wrote for the show and I’ll call it quits too. I’m probably writing this comment to myself anyway.
This page, courtesy of oldturk, is a good resource. You can flip over from Sentate to House to Governors, and you can click on the states or districts for the numbers.

G’night Steve. I was just closing down my windows & caught your comment. Sweet dreams, all.
G’night Steve.
My pleasure 99 – & thank you!
Keep an eye on Montana. Burns narrowed the gap a tiny bit as I watched CNN’s vote tally jump from 74% precincts reporting to 70% precincts reporting.
Probably just a mistake, but worth watching.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz…

Just heard gas prices in So Cal are up 1 cent/gal, their first rise in a couple months. Wonder how long it will take for them to bounce back up now that the elections are over and the drop in prices failed to save Bush’s ass?
I’m guessing by the time we get up in the morning, Steve.
I’ll “see” you guys on Stephanie Miller tomorrow at 7:30am PT!
(Gotta get out the studio!) Nite!
Agent 99- Gas prices are down over $1.00/gallon from their Spring high. That would be a pretty big bounce overnight. Don’t think even these crooks could be that blatant. I’m going out to walk my dog. I’ll check to see if you are still responding when I get back.

I’ve learned that every expectation of decency is dashed on the rocks. So I now expect the most indecency, and am not usually very far off the mark.
I’m actually hoping to wake up tomorrow to find that * has fled to Paraguay.
“I just saw someone on CNN say there wasn’t many problems with e-vote machines. “
I’d laugh if this was less serious. Don’t think for a moment that the Dems are going to do anything. Pelosi has already said basically “nothing is going to change.”
The real change comes from us getting a truly competitive party framework off the ground. Don’t stop until that is achieved. The Democrats are useless and will continue to be the white shadow of the dark horse Republicans.

election fraud
More problems in Ohio

At 10:15 a.m., I was the first person to vote electronically at my precinct in Cleveland Heights. Having arrived at 6:30 when the polls opened, we were immediately told by poll workers that none of the five cards voters use to vote electronically were functional. In fact, I’m fairly certain that the majority of the cards came up as dead on arrival. If you’re unfamiliar with how the process works here, when voters sign in, they’re handed a card that looks much like a hotel key card. Then, they go to the machine, cast their ballot and bring the card back to the poll worker, who takes it and prepares it for the next voter.

Well, none of the cards or miniature readers worked. From 6:30 a.m. on, poll workers in contact with the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections were told that they were, in fact, aware of the problem and that, to be sure, help was on the way. Between five and ten minutes away. They were repeatedly given the five-to-ten-minute story for three hours. Help never came. Apparently, similar problems had happened at other area precincts. At one point, a poll worker was told that the problems were so widespread in Cleveland that dispatching support staff to a single precinct would be next to impossible…

Even the mainstream corporate media* is reporting on this, so whatever they are reporting, it must be much worse. And of course, as it is the political game, the willful nature of such fraud is not examined and most problems are called ‘glitches’ as in random events, rather than the obvious plan it is to keep Republican control of Congress.

Voting Expert: Widespread Election Fraud Again
Harris tells Alex Jones Show she has acquired software for big three companies, stories of mass voter intimidation, arrests, machine meltdowns proliferate
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet
Tuesday, November 7, 2006
Vote fraud crusader and rights activist Bev Harris has told the nationally syndicated Alex Jones Show that she is in possession of voting software used by the big three voting systems companies and is now in a position to completely expose the true scale of electronic vote fraud, as a cascade of stories about voter intimidation, arrests and machine meltdowns arrived on election day.
“They aren’t even being sneaky about it now,” said Harris in summarizing the widespread voting machine failures and election fraud that unfolded throughout the day, referring to policies whereby voting precincts have imposed complete blackouts on any indication of their results until the official confirmation from headquarters is given.
Precinct reports are now being treated as illegal and individuals are being charged for even suggesting that precincts keep tally counts of votes so comparison checks can be conducted later.
Harris also related stories of arrests of those merely trying to ensure checks and balances are taking place as voting machines fail nationwide, including an entire county blackout in Indiana.
Harris also discussed dirty tricks in Los Angeles, whereby polling precincts remain closed anything to an hour after they were supposed to open and election workers are putting green lines through ballot papers to denote the location of voting, knowing full well that this invalidates the paper during the subsequent optical scan. Pollsters were caught telling colleagues in hushed tones not to let voters know about this scam.
Widespread reports of scanning machines rejecting ballots are also flooding in, with voters told to “go home” if their ballot is rejected three times by the machine.
Harris featured in the recent blockbuster HBO documentary Hacking Democracy and said that since appearing in the program she has received death threats warning “we are going to get you,” and “I hope you die a horrible awful slow death.”
She has also been the target of anonymous Internet bloggers who slander voting activists. In one instance further research uncovered the fact that one of these “agent provocateurs” was a Diebold employee.
But Harris remains undeterred and is now in a position to expose the length and breadth of the fraud after acquiring the software programs for the other big three voting systems companies aside from Diebold.
Harris exclusively told the Alex Jones Show, “I have now got a hold of the software of the other three major vendors and won’t be releasing it,” stating she was in possession of the code used by Election Systems & Software, Sequoia and Hart Intercivics.
“We’re going to be able to compare what they give us with very specific information – dates, times, and serial numbers of the machines,” said Harris.

Dan #50 – with the gold of sunshine, and my tunes were played on the harp unstrung…
99- I’m back from walking my dog. All of the good outcomes tonight must have gone to your head for you to even dream we could get rid of Shrub that easily.
By the way, I’ve been meaning to ask, since you took over editing this blog I’ve noticed that you don’t post comments that often anymore. Do you have to read every post and does that leave you with no time to comment?
From the other side of the globe:
A heartfelt thanks to all you patriotic bloggers for defending the US experiment from the neocon christo-fascists.
And, for wrecking the bushik rubberstamp House.
May the Senate be liberated as well!
I celebrated by laughing, as right-wing smart-asses on cnn, and interviewed by the bbc, were hopelessly trying to spin this into something other than a political tsunami. As if throwing all those incumbent crooks out of their gerrymandered seats, using republican-built ‘voting’ machines, were not a *phenomenal* repudiation of neocon rule.
Take good care of yourselves — 2008 will need you too!
Regarding precinct totals, for several years our local elections officer has resisted posting any results (poll tapes) even though it is required by law. This year, the Voter Confidence Committee threatened him with a lawyer and he finally instructed poll workers to run a second tape from the Accuvote scanner for posting.
Only problem is… the law (and common sense) dictate that the tape should be posted prominently OUTSIDE the polling place (so it can be seen after the polls close), and he told poll workers to post it INSIDE the polling place in the location where they display the roster. Riiight.
Also, the law states this duplicate tape must be signed by the poll workers. The memo instructs them NOT to sign it. This is a moot point if nobody can see it anyhow, but wouldn’t this imply that that copy of the tape doesn’t represent the bonafide results?
Worst case scenario for the Senate – I think there will be more Republican heads rolling due to corruption – maybe some will resign. If it happens to one or two (depending on the final outcomes), then we would have control right?
Oh my,.. what have I missed,..
save me one of those chocolate candied apples,..
that will be good for breakfast.
I crashed,.. how does Brad keep up the meat grinder schedule?
Now we get to clean up the Fascist/Nazi/Corporatist God awful bu$$hco mess.
I had the strangest dream last night.
I dreamed the winds of change had blown hard all night and our sailing ship had taken on a new direction. It was now full speed on a port tack breaking through the waves of corruption on a journey to better times.
Then when I awoke, turned on the radio and heard: OBL has won, who would have imagined that the MSM/DNC would succeed in giving Saddam and Sons, OBL, Bill Maher, Keith Olberman, and John Kerry a victory. We have no choice now, the commie vampire media must be destroyed. I knew something big had happened. Maybe it wasn’t a dream after all!
I went out around midnight and did a dive into the dumpsters at the school across the street which served as the local polling place.
Being a heavy democratic area I didn’t expect to find any thing and was pleased when that is how it panned out.
Yo BB2!!! I hope the school dumpsters were inoffensive as well as bereft of smoking guns. Thanks for making the effort. You never know – you might get lucky and find Larisa Alexandrovna in one of them 😉 I’ve got to get to bed soon – running low on gas here in central Europe. Keep on truckin’!
it was a “thumping ” alright LOL
Dumpster diving may old freind.
It’s such an adveture to see and take what other folks & co.’s toss. . .
I used to supliment my income by diving . . . . . and sometimes still do . . .
I’ll never forget the days I was @ the dump of a very wealthy suburb and saw 2 guys
with dumpster poles (fishing pols for dumpsters) fishing.
One was wearing the Harvard crimson Shirt the other wearing MIT’s brass rat . . .
Hummmmm… Only In America . . .
P.S. Guess where I got this machine . . .
JOJ
Dumpster diving may old freind
I’ve come to climb in you again
‘Neath the halo of the alley lamp
I’m feeling something cold and damp
And the smell
Strong enough to curl my hair
What’s in there?
I think I’ll move along
Into the sounds of silence.
I am so sorry Paul and Art!
Now we get rid of these machines.. Permanently!?
I am sick to my stomach of hearing about OPEN SOURCE, OPEN SOURCE.. SHUT UP!
Open source is still software, and software can still be fucked with, and since it is still electronic, electronics can still be specially crafted.
NO OPEN SOURCE.
NO CLOSED SOURCE.
NO ELECTRONICS IN THE GOD DAMN ELECTIONS.
Alright with that said. It seems that our country has barely dodged the FACISM bullet. ITMFA
Keep diebold doing atm’s or some other crap.
NOT ELECTIONS.
Diebold does ATM machines, yet they’re very tightly regulated…? Does not compute…
No Impeachment . . . . . No Pelosi in “08” . . . Bye by …
JoJ # 184
Ditto…..
To my mind, if Nancy Pelosi has half a brain, impeachment SHOULD be her # 1 priority. What better message could she send to U.S. citizens AND to the world that this new government won’t tolerate corruption and wants an open and honest government with checks and balances in place.
