el paso.....election office
i have a friend off on harley ride down hwy 1 west coast for 30 days. he stopped off here before the trip. he is a republican, well placed, influential family, in the court system for decades. he knows the woman that runs the department for elections. when he gets back to el paso, i am going to have him look into some things

is there any specific problems or information on el paso, this last election

i had an idea, heavy democrat, that votes were stolen there, as well as other places. hitting straight dem, vote would go to bush, and hard to register a vote for kerry

anything else

i had about an hour yell at him, how stupid and uninformed he was, with so much influence, and raising a daughter, his greater responsibility. he actually kept mouth shut and listened.

by the afternoon, he came to me, head down in shame, and told me a story how he has successfully conditioned his 13 yr old daughter in good ole fashion, fox news republican

1. I have no personal info but if you are connected with your fellow Dems
there, then ask them. You will probably get closer to the truth. Many Hispanics I know were into g. bush as a "Texan", "religious" man and nice guy. (I know I am gagging also.) I really hope they and others are seeing the truth now.

2. El Paso uses Diebold
So it wouldn't surprise me one bit the election was fraught with suspicious activities. You would need to look at the prior election history and see if you can see areas (precincts) that look out of the norm.

Here are some good links for you and your republican friend

3. thanks
i will look at them in the morning. it seems to me there was three areas, austin, houston and el paso that when a straight dem party was voted on, it voted all dems but president reg bush. and people were trying repeatedly to switch to kerry and had a tough time. i know it happened into new mexico.

i will check it out
