Great speaker on election fraud. We invited him into our westchester county Progressive Democrats of America and citizensforvotingintegrity.org, Concerned Families of Westchester panel discussion. Fabulous. What a great guy.

I'll post a pic tomorrow.

His first statement really hit hard: If we don't get fair voting all our other efforts are a waste. He's right.

He's uncovered thousands of examples of Kerry votes going to Bush while writing his new book, Fooled Again. But how many times has a Bush vote mistakenly gone to Kerry? 4.

His main point was that we have to get over our reluctance to state the obvious: The Republican party has sabotaged the american voting system.

"Not in my america."

Well, yes, actually. Right here in your america.

Honestly, with all of the other lying and killing they've done, why is it so hard to belive that they'd rig a few tally machines? Over the decades they've done every other kind of voting fraud, so, why is it impossible to consider that they simply re-wrote the software that counts the votes? That's a piece of cake compared to social security, Iraq, Katrina. That's a walk in the park. Pay off a couple good programmers, done. No evidence.

Wake up, sheeples. They're fleecing us.

3. How cool! I watched him on Book TV on the span the other day
I asked in another thread about whether the "significant" article that he mentioned in that talk (on 3/31) has come out yet -- he said it'd be out in about a month, but he couldn't say anything about it yet.

That thread was here:

I'll send a link to our PDA Westchester webpage when I get it together.



Great guy. Clear thinker. Wow.

He suggested we monitor the 06 and 08 elections with bi-partisan exit polls. He said we're not planning on doing exit polls anymore.

Holy crap!

He also said many powerful people on the right want him out at least as much as we do, and want election reform.

So, I'm going to join my local League of Women voters and do a count at the next 2 elections, if I can talk them into doing it.

We have to have a reason to reject the next election, which they will most definitely rig, again, just like 98, 00, and 04.

Come everyone. Demand a paper ballot or at least a verifiable paper receipt from an optical scan.

And then demand open source software for the counting and tabulating of the vote.
