Think about this: 58,000 ballots vanish like a fart in the wind,
Edited on Fri Oct-29-04 01:31 PM by elperromagico
and how does the media cover it?

"The Broward County clerk blames the US Postal Service. The US Postal Service blames the Broward County clerk."

Damn it all to hell, that is not the point! 58,000 ballots just disappeared, vanished - they're fucking gone! 58,000 potential votes! And nobody seems to know where the fuck they are!

This is a story of the potential denial of suffrage to 58,000 people. That's more people than live in my hometown, for God's sake.

But to the media, it's just a "he said, she said" situation. What a crock of shit.

*deep breath* Sorry, I'm angry. :D

1. The press covers all of this with an air of amusement
They general feeling is that this is all bullshit and whether it's chimp or Kerry it's all the same to them.
