Remember the Guardian's letter writeing stunt in Clark County, Ohio?
Edited on Thu Oct-21-04 06:16 PM by Entrayl
For those who missed it, the UK's progressive newspaper, the Guardian started this campaign to get people in Ohio to vote, as it was kind of left leaning everyone presumed that most of the writers would get people to vote for Kerry. There was a whole outrage about a foreign paper trying to infulence the vote.

Anyways, as a follow up, here were some of the replys:

1. It's so funny
that Americans take such offense at private persons writing letters about the election. Are there ANY elections anywhere in the world where the US isn't trying to affect the outcome? Sheesh.
