Silly People: Balance Your Checkbook / Hand Count the Votes

[IdaBriggs]

Its the same thing: when the numbers don't make sense, you double check them. There appears to be FRAUD; that doesn't mean its a "criminal" thing; it very well (and most likely is) could be "on accident" instead of "on purpose." I'm a computer geek, and I've made my share of "oops!"

I'm telling you all AGAIN, the numbers do not add up. The analysis is dry and boring over at www.invisibleida.com/New_Hampshire.htm and I can sum it up like this:

Small town folk voting by "hand counted paper ballots" are apparently MORE LIBERAL than big city people voting with sophisticated equipment.

If that makes sense to you, then recounts aren't necessary. If it sounds a tad odd, then we recount the votes BY HAND. This is NOT brain surgery.

We'll know more soon. Keep the faith. Its not over until *I* say its over, and ITS NOT OVER. (Did I mention that I'm a tad stubborn?) :)

I hate it in a president but I *love* it in you!

2. I agree with you.

But how do you hand count machine totals that could be synthetic with no voter-verified paper?

3. Thanks Ida Briggs.

I think hand recounts would settle the problem, even if they show for sure that Bush won. Then we will know that we have another problem to tackle in the future besides voting fraud.

We have crispini's wonderful letter and a pretty good collection of links all set up and ready for DUers to notify the WORLD (starting with all their friends and family) about this whole thing:

I've posted it in 3 different forums:

6. But, but, but James Baker and Judy Woodruff will make fun of us

Thanks for all your work, IdaBriggs. I don't know whether or not there's fraud, but you and other number-gifted posters here are making me thing it's certainly our obligation to push for a recount (or, if you're right, a first count). Looking forward to Monday to see what happens with the Nader request.

7. Better do it QUICK!

They be slashing and burning that hard copy as we type. Like they did with the scrap metal downtown. That shit got shipped off to parts unknown SO FAST it makes your head spin!
