The Nashua Advocate: We Have Become Mainstream Media

[nashuaadvocate]

And we will not let you down.

We WILL NOT let you down.

The Nashua Advocate is now a news outlet supported by "Google News" -- along with The New York Times, The Washington Post, and all the other newspapers and television stations which are acknowledged as "mainstream."

So, for fun, go to Google News.

Search for, for example, "USCV" -- which stands for United States Count Votes, the organization which has just refuted the Edison/Mitofsky Report.

You get one hit. And it is

The Nashua Advocate.

Please help us celebrate -- we've worked hard to get where we are. Let's pop the champagne and let off the fireworks, even if just for a moment. We're "mainstream" and we're not going to stop covering the stories we're covering.

And we WILL NOT let you down.

Ever.

Folks, this fight has just begun. We mean business.

9. I thought that their summary statement was pretty powerful...

...especially ** at the end--and their just stating the fact that Kerry won the exit polls, also marked **.

"Summary

"As citizens in a democracy, we have an abiding interest in the integrity of the election process.

"The Edison/Mitofsky report confirms there were large differences between their exit polls and the official results of the 2004 presidential election – much more so than in previous elections. **The national exit poll indicated a 3 point victory for Kerry; whereas the official election results indicated that he lost by 2.5%, a difference of 5.5%.

"The Edison/Mitofsky report fails to substantiate their hypothesis that the difference between their exit polls and official election results should be explained by problems with the exit polls. They assert without supporting evidence that (p. 4), “Kerry voters were more likely to participate in the exit polls than Bush voters.” In fact, data included within the report suggest that the opposite might be true.

"Their analysis of the potential correlation of exit poll errors with voting machine type is incomplete and inadequate, and their report ignores the alternative hypothesis that the official election results could have been corrupted.

"The Edison/Mitofsky report states (p.12), “We need to do more investigation into the causes of the statistical skew in the exit poll data for the general election.” USCountVotes agrees, and we suggest that that investigation extend to the official vote count tallies. In this context, USCountVotes affirms our mission to create and analyze a database containing precinct-level election results for the entire United States in order to do a thorough mathematical analysis of the 2004 election results.

**"We invite all those who care about democratic processes in this country to join us in fully investigating and explaining what really happened in the 2004 Presidential election."

28. Great ! All, how do we create a "google bomb" so that

lots of people searching google will get the Nashua Advocate website?

If I recall, I think we pick a phrase that they post there that's a bit unusual, and a few thousand of us type in the search term.


Example, google "miserable failure", hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button instead of search, and see what comes up!
