Sore Winners? No one cries "tinfoil hats!" when Republicans make a claim?
Prosecutor to check out 35 voters

<snip>---
The names of nearly three dozen voters involved with Election Day irregularities will be sent to the Lucas County prosecutor's office for possible criminal action, the county board of elections decided yesterday.
The board disagreed over the seriousness of the matter, with Republicans Bernadette Noe and Sam Thurber expressing concern that people were purposely trying to violate election law. Democrats Paula Ross and Diane Brown said they think the people were more confused than devious.

Ms. Ross suggested the board contact the voters in question to ask what happened before contacting the prosecutor's office.

As has been said here before, and as it is the sentiment I stand behind, election fraud and voter fraud are issues that need to be addressed for the sake of democracy, not for the sake of John Kerry.

2. Wow! Those journalists are working hard....
They probably had to do some serious digging to find the only two disenfranchised Republicans in Ohio so they could interview them for this article. Keep up the serious investigative journalism, guys!

7. They have to dig frequently, like when...
They find all 8 black people in the Re-thug party, and parade all of them back and forth in the background during every on-camera interview at their Conventions!

4. Here is one I seem to recall...
"OMG...OMG...OMG...OMG!!! Saddam has enough weapons of mass destruction to blow us all to kingdom come. And he will do it in about 20 minutes if we don't go in and get him now!!!!" :tinfoilhat:

But when there are people who are actually coming forward with real proof of their claim... the Democrats are considered conspiracy theorists?

6. HILARIOUS!!
If this bubbles up at all, the TALKING POINT should be totally dismissive. As in, "this is the the best they could come up with?"..."35 votes"...sounds like they weren't ready for us to contest this as hard as we have. Y'know, too busy gloating. Pride cometh before the Fall.

As far as our Ohio election officials go, keep up the good work. Give those repugs no quarter. Use every possible trick up your sleeves.

What can we do about Kenneth Blackwell?
