400 Demand Recount at Ohio Statehouse

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20041204/ap_on_el_pr/ohio_vote_19

By JOHN McCARTHY, Associated Press Writer

COLUMBUS, Ohio - About 400 protesters gathered outside the Statehouse on Saturday to support a recount of the presidential election in Ohio and call for an investigation into Election Day irregularities.

Speakers addressing the crowd alleged that many voters were the victims of a fraud in which votes intended for John Kerry (news - web sites) were given to President Bush (news - web sites).

"I would like to welcome you to the Ukraine," said Susan Truitt, referring to the country where a new presidential runoff election was ordered after observers said the first one was rigged.

On Friday, a federal judge in Columbus ruled that a recount may proceed if two minority party candidates who sued for it can pay for it. Green and Libertarian party officials say they can.


This is a great story. It's being SWAMPED by liberal-hating rightwing knuckle-draggers (as evidenced in the accompanying messages)

Rate it up, it's a great example of democracy in action. Americans should be proud.
