You get the idea. Many counties with superior Democratic Registration went to Bush/Cheney in a landslide. There are more.

1. What kind of voting

was in place in these counties?? We need to connect the dots - were these counties using opscan or ev machines?

[Tony_FLADEM]

2. I don't know.

[shraby]

4. There was a post that had the info

about what kind of machines were where.

3. What are the 1996 and 2000 numbers in those counties?

Many southern democrats are democrats only in name. This is strange if and only if there's a strong divergence from previous elections.

[Bread and Circus]

5. How did those areas go in 2000, 1996, and 1992?

[tridim]

6. Looks like they just flipped the results

It takes five lines of code:

If (KerryVotes > BushVotes) {
TempVotes = KerryVotes;
KerryVotes = BushVotes;
BushVotes = TempVotes;
}

7. Makes me wonder about Colorado

The whole state legislature turned Democratic, but the state's EC votes went red?

It wouldn't surprise me to see results mirroring this trend in Colorado. Anyone else care to take a look? I personally suck at crunching numbers.

[Eloriel]

12. Someone should DEFINITELY do Colorado -- here's why

Your Senator (the one who won in 2002, can't remember his name) was one of those "Diebold Magic" winners that helped flip the Senate to Repug in 2002.

14. Wayne Allard

I hate that stupid son of a bitch.

[Straight Shooter]

8. Comparison of past voting trends in these counties?

I'll bookmark this and dig in later. Curious about voting for other offices, too, like Senator and et cetera, if they followed the same pattern.

At first blush, it looks like Kerry votes were programmed to go to bush, and vice-versa.

Thanks, Tony.

9. I'm getting sicker!

:cry:

10. Take a look at these other threads

By the way, the counties you mentioned --- use varying machines:

Baker Sequoia (unique software release)
Calhoun Diebold 1.17.17
Columbia Diebold 1.17.17
DeSoto Diebold 1.17.17
Dixie Diebold 1.17.17
Franklin ES&S Version 4.2
Gilchrist Diebold 1.17.17

[Straight Shooter]

11. Look at Columbia! Now, that is really STRANGE

Columbia

Dem ........ Rep


19,374... 10,737


K/E ......B/C

8,029 ....19,374

[in_cog_ni_to]

13. WTF???!!!

How many coincidences do we have to see? This is bullshit and if the Democrats do nothing about it, I'm leaving the party! :wtf:

[Pachamama]

18. I find this impossible to swallow...

1) That more than 50% of registered Dems would vote for Bush (or not at all)

2) That the number of votes for Bush equals the EXACT number as registered democrats...

:wtf:

[JohnnyCougar]

15. All these counties went Bush in 2000

There is fraud, but this is not the proof.

These are southern Dems, they are DINOS.

[Mr_Spock]

16. Thank you - I wonder if people are paying attention sometimes

This issue had been discussed BEFORE the election - the northwest "Panhandle" part of Florida are still registered as Democrats, but they vote Republican.

[JohnnyCougar]

17. Exactly. I know there is fraud in Florida

But if we keep pursuing this road, it will only stand to hurt our reputation. There are other places to look for fraud.
