One thing I don't get about the Judiary Committe Letter to Blackwell
if you haven't seen it yet, here's a URL to the Blackwell letter from the Judiary Committee:

http://www.solarbus.org/stealyourelection/articles/ohblackwellltr12204.pdf

They go through all the counties and list a lot of the problems, but when they go into Cuyahoga county, they don't mention the 93,000 extra votes. I would think this is one of the most explosive things, and they glance right over it.

I have yet to hear an explanation of where all the extra votes came from.

Here is link to the extra vote data:

Does anyone have any idea why they wouldn't mention this in the letter??????????????????????????

A ".gov" site is considered a more reliable source if you plan on distributing the information or use it write a letter to the editor.

On edit, I can't answer your question. Perhaps because thoe votes were retracted so quickly? Do you think they need it to prove their case? I think the case is made for fraud in the letter.

2. they were not retracted so quickly
The results shown in the PDF referenced were on their website for at least two weeks.

And this still begs the question:

On election night we were told that Bush won Ohio by 136,000 votes.

Since the website showed the extra 93,000 at that time, we must presume that if they "corrected" the extra 93,000 somehow, that it would significantly affect the Bush victory margin.

The victory margin did change to something like 119,000 votes as of the official results today. In their explanation of the new margin,they do not mention the extra 93,000 votes anywhere. They say provisional ballots, absentee ballots, but no mention of fixing a computer glitch in Cuyahoga county or anything of the like.

DOES NOT COMPUTE!

I wish I would have saved the numbers from their website before they changed them...
