which 2002 elections were likely fraudulent?
Does anyone know which Dems lost their seats in the House or Senate due to likely election fraud? Probably Max Cleland? Who else?

2. The Georgia Governor and US Senate seats
Both Max Cleland and Governor Roy Barnes had huge leads in all polls leading up to and including exit polls on election day. But somehow, mysteriously, we get stuck with in idiot and an asshole.

I call bullshit.

3. Mondale in MN and somebody in CO. But who knows?
When the vote is counted in secret by a gang of rabid partisans who would do anything to get their man elected and who know there's absolutely no chance they could ever be caught cheating, what do you think happened?

Forget the guy's name in CO but that was somebody's well-supported allegation in an article I read a couple years ago. Google the 02 election and find the upsets of Dems and then see if they used optical scanners or touchscreens from the Big Three: Diebold, ES&S, or Sequoia. Probably 4 or 5 seats were lost, but like everybody else I'm just guessing. There's really no way to know. If Cleland's loss (& Roy Barnes even more) was not fraud, then somebody needs to re-define the word. They almost immediately pulled the exit polls off the internet (evidently because they showed such a strong Dem result. Why else would they pull them? Of course now, if forced to come clean, they would probably claim that that wasn't the case, that something else explains why the exit polls were yanked from public view). The pre-election polls had Barnes up from 9-11% and he lost by 5%. Go put that thru the statistical regression hoops TIA. Big turnout of blacks and Democratic strongholds, so the blacks of GA must have voted in large numbers for Chambliss and Sonny Perdue.
