Watergate-style money laundering indictments stoke Ohio's stolen election fires
by Bob Fitrakis & Harvey Wasserman
October 28, 2005

As federal probes rack Team Bush in Washington, three huge indictments for money laundering and other pro-Bush election crimes involving Ohio "Coingate" lynchpin Tom Noe have stoked powerful new Watergate-style financial fires under Ohio's stolen 2004 election scandal.

A close associate of key Republicans from George H.W. Bush to George W. Bush to Ohio Senator George Voinovich to Ohio Governor Robert Taft and many, many more, Noe has long been known as northwest Ohio's "Mr. Republican."

He has also been at the heart of speculation on how huge numbers of votes in the Toledo area may have wrongly found their way into the Bush column, helping the GOP again take the presidency in 2004.

I don't know if this has been posted anywhere else or not, but this article is different than the other Free Press article that is up in this forum. It's worth a read.

3. OMG. That looks like the screen shot from Minnesota's 6th district.

There were about 8000 more votes for each of the third-party candidates, across the board, than in the other districts, which recorded a couple hundred each for each of them. This was live on the secretary of state's website in the early morning of 11/3/04; it was later changed and those 8000+ votes disappeared--without explanation.

4. this happened in other states too.

the 3rd party candidate was used either to get votes from
Kerry (in Indiana a straight party vote in 6 counties flipped the vote
at the top of the ticket to a 3rd party candidate) in Ohio the 3rd party
candidates were used as storage place for votes and then the votes
were redistributed at the end so as to make sure a bush win.

Hamilton County (Cincinnati) had the same "stuff" too

5. So they just redistributed these votes as they pleased afterward.

The only way to discover the fraud is to count all the ballots in every precinct where this occurred.
