O M G...How could this happen twice?
Bush is about to claim victory. They are calling Kerry "desperate" for wanting provisisional votes counted. How long before Baker has his people storm Ohio during provisional counts? How long before the newsreaders begin to mock Kerry?

How did this happen again?

They set us up. They played the pre election polls like they played election night. Bush was always "leading" even though they counted more repug households assuming more repug voters in the polls. Bush was always leading during the coverage of the red and blue states as they held Kerry's counts at bey after 112 votes were in. That number 112 is seared into my mind now after it sat on the national screens for hours.

I still have faith that Kerry will prevail. They are the ones who are desperate. They must steal this election to maintain control of the coffers and they desperately want BushCo in charge to represent corporate interests.

We won't be having that. America will not stand by and watch Bush steal the presidency twice.

1. I'm discouraged
I can't believe this is happening either. Okay, the 250,000 provisional ballots that need to be counted. Are there any other ballots in Ohio that have not been counted as well yet? Have all the regular votes come in? I ask this because even if we get a big margin with the provisionals, we might not have enough. I just want the good guys to win so badly.

3. Why are you only looking at Ohio?
Do you think they are only capable of cheating in Ohio? Is it possible that they WANT everyone to concentrate on Ohio? Why?

7. Yep, I agree with you. I KNOW they've cheated all over the country
I believe that their holding all of Kerry's votes out earlier was their way of determining where they needed to cherry pick votes. Fucking scum.

9. I want an accounting of FLORIDA.. What IS the margin??
Exactly how did a TWENTY POINT lead in almost 30% of registered voters (early votes) evaporate? Where were those early votes "stored"? Do we have an audit that shows the actual counts before election day??

We need some mathematicians FAST !!

Something really smells about Florida.. AGAIN... Screw Ohio, if Florida is in the Wacky numbers column.. Maybe the whole Ohio thing was to "cover" for florida again..:shrug:

6. If Kerry's people on the ground...
... can find just one prominent instance of Republican voting fraud, and press that as an example of what's going on, that may blunt the inevitable Rove tactic of portraying Kerry as trying to steal the election through legal maneuvering.

8. Andy Card said it * wins.
They want Kerry to concede. They announced before Kerry concedes.
