Kucinich Supports Green Party Demand for Ohio Recount

WASHINGTON -- November 18 -- Support for Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb’s demand for a recount of the Ohio presidential vote continues to grow. Ohio Congressman and former presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich has joined a growing list of individuals and organizations calling for a recount.

“I strongly support the request for a recount in Ohio,” Kucinich said in a statement sent to the Cobb-LaMarche campaign.

Kucinich said that a “recount is an appropriate response to officials who tried to suppress the vote” and that the “highly partisan activities of state election officials cast doubt on the integrity of the elections process.”

1. And where are the rest of the "Democrats"?

Why should we continue vote for a party that does not care if our vote is counted?

4. This has been posted but thanks

for putting it in a different forum. This needs to be seen. Here is a Democrat doing something to help out country and he is actually working with another party. Go DK, as always.

Didn't know much about him, but he sure seems like a person of integrity and honesty. If he runs in 2008, he'll have my vote.

Ohio has paper ballots and optical scans. All these can be manually recounted!!!!! I hope they find the smoking gun, and the gun power is on *'s hands. Wishful thinking, I know, but we can dream....
