Headline on Cleveland - Plain Dealer this AM: Why Are We Still Counting?
Walking into work this morning, I saw the headline on the newsstand read Why Are We Still Counting?



People, machines account for glitches in Cuyahoga voting

Plain Dealer Reporters
A day after the polls closed, Cuyahoga County elections officials still couldn't say who won Tuesday's elections.

And they might not know today.

Problems with both types of the county's new electronic voting machines were to blame. Human error added to the crisis, with one in five elections workers failing to report to work Tuesday. And many who did show up struggled with setting up the new machines.

2. OMG is starting all over again or should I say.....
it's (stealing elections) is continuing! What's up with Ohio? Election officials who don't SHOW UP???I listen to a lot of news on TV and heard next to NOTHING regarding any of the elections held Tuesday. Once again, the MSM doing it's job....and then I think of Katie Couric earning 85K/day! When are these people going to do their jobs? The Duke rape case, Natalie Holloway, ad infinitum are all more important than ANYTHING else it seems to me.
