4. That's insane - regarding the optical scanner discrepancies
It looks as though Democratic votes were somehow transferred to the Republican side. Why isn't this getting headline attention, at least in the liberal press?

5. I found some problems with that sites contention

UPDATED TO FIX LINKS

Despite the registration data, which seems to match something I found here, the counties that seem to have high Dem registration but swing strongly to Bush, have a history of strong Republican voting. So I'm not sure whats going on there.

I found the registration data here, and it seems to match the ustogether site
http://election.dos.state.fl.us/voterreg/vrArchive/2004voterreg.shtml#04gen

But if you look at the 1988 election, many of these counties with high Dem registration, vote for Bush senior in the same manner as 2004
http://election.dos.state.fl.us/elections/resultsarchive/DetailRpt.Asp?ELECTIONDATE=11/8/88&RACE=PRE&PARTY=&DIST=&GRP=&DATAMODE=

Next is the 1992 election, but remember Ross perot syphoned aff Repug votes, same kind of republican pattern
http://election.dos.state.fl.us/elections/resultsarchive/DetailRpt.Asp?ELECTIONDATE=11/3/92&RACE=PRE&PARTY=&DIST=&GRP=&DATAMODE=

Next is the 1996 election
http://election.dos.state.fl.us/elections/resultsarchive/DetailRpt.Asp?ELECTIONDATE=11/5/96&RACE=PRE&PARTY=&DIST=&GRP=&DATAMODE=

And Finally the 2000 election
http://election.dos.state.fl.us/elections/resultsarchive/DetailRpt.Asp?ELECTIONDATE=11/7/00&RACE=PRE&PARTY=&DIST=&GRP=&DATAMODE=

So despite the High Democratic registion, many of these "Dems" vote Republican.

6. Are those numbers for real?


Are those figures for real?

I assume we are focusing on the issue of all the NEGATIVE growth rates for the dems.

WHO IS DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? THIS IS REALLY PISSING ME OFF.

IS NOT THE DNC OR SOMEONE VERIFY THIS IS CORRECT.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT THE DEMOCRATS DID NOT GROW HUGE IN EACH COUNTY.

I SERIOUSLY ASK, AT WHAT POINT DO AMERICANS PROTECT THEMSELVES?
