NY Daily News: Ohio tally fit for Ukraine
byline is columnist Juan Gonzalez

Voter fraud in the Ukraine? Give me a break.

It has been a month now and we still don't have a clear count of the votes for our own presidential race from the state of Ohio.

For those who may have forgotten, Ohio supposedly assured George W. Bush a second term in the White House - only the most important job on the planet.

The morning after the election, we were told Bush was ahead of John Kerry in that state's unofficial count by 139,000 votes, or 2.5%.

At the time there were 155,000 uncounted provisional ballots and an unknown number of overseas ballots, but Kerry concluded they would not produce enough of a margin to erase his deficit, so he promptly conceded.

At the same time, given the bitter Democratic memories of the 2000 Florida fiasco, he assured his supporters he would fight to have every vote properly counted this time.

Within a few days, other problems began to show up in Ohio's preliminary tally.

14. I am hoping Olberman's audience grows and exceed that of O'liely
soon, because Keith's 200,000 is not as effective. Limpballs
claims to have 20 million tuning in each week, and I can't
remember O'Leily's numbers but is'nt he #1 rated on cable?

9. This is wonderful!
I hope they reported those things to the people that need to know. There is so much going on with stuff like this, I get worried that things get lost.

16. Great article! This is a tabloid, and widely read. Hmmm...
Maybe we should get the Enquirer and Weekly World News to cover this story. I'll bet the tabloids are popular reading material among those low-IQ red state voters.
