1. Important info for hope there
AMY GOODMAN: Last question, Congress member, Kucinich, your state, Ohio, is also the state of Waldon O'Dell, the head of Diebold, the company that makes many of the electronic voting machines who vowed to deliver Ohio to Bush, deliver the votes to Bush. What about this, do you believe the results? We saw exit polls yesterday in places like Ohio and Florida that indicated that Kerry was ahead, and now once the counting has been done, it seems otherwise.

DENNIS KUCINICH: Well, you know what, that's a separate question, Amy. I don't have any evidence at this point to suggest there's been any attempt to actually tamper with the vote itself. I share the concerns that people across this country have about Diebold, but I think that most of the votes that were cast here in this state had nothing to do with Diebold, and I cannot tell that you I'm the expert on this at this moment. There's so many things happening that we're just trying to do everything we can to get a proper analysis of the election, but right now, what remains to be done is to address the issue of the provisional ballots or the absentee ballots of making absolutely certain that a canvass of the results in Ohio will yield and reflect the will of the people of this state and its proper role in the electoral process. Meanwhile, I'm going to do everything that I can to people posted. The website at www.kucinich.us will have updates and speak directly to people about this as it develops. You know, we are in a moment where everything is still developing. You know, those of us who worked very hard to achieve some change here know that it doesn't look promising at the moment, but we have learned also from four years ago that we don't give up and let those commitments that we have pass away like some autumn leaves dropping from the trees getting ready for winter.
