Is it just me or does Zell Miller look like a Zombie from Night of the Living Dead? He normally seems to have more life in his face.

[Phantom Lord]

Miller is absolutely kicking ASS! Speech of the convention!

Cheney has a tough act to follow. I don't know if he can do it.

Thanks for the ping, JB.

I love computers. I abhor the idea of this type of computerized voting.

[RinaseaofDs]

We should post the exact method for doing this procedure on FR.

This needs to be aired out as much as possible.

It looks as if this were deliberately designed into the system. I guess they wanted to be able to market these in Chile, Columbia, South Dakota, and Illinois too.

We were watching C-Span due to the LACK of punditry.

Must agree, BEST SPEECH EVER!
Complete rebuttal of the Dems, and nothing more.

Going to watch Cheney now.

Yes, the Jim March mentioned in the article is the very same firearms-rights advocate who has done so much good work in the beleagured state of California. A better man would be impossible to find.

I emailed him about this, and this is his response:

"Not only do I 'know about this', I was present to answer technical questions about it when Bev and I did a demo of this stuff for staffers of the California SecState's office Aug. 18th. I did the same demo for a Canadian documentary crew a few days later, and I'll be filming the demo yet again for a piece of video that will be sent to Arnold.

This is FOR REAL. The central tabulator software in any Diebold system (optical scan or touchscreen) was rigged for fraud, and rigged to specifically evade scrutiny during the 1% manual recount mandated by state law."

Doesn't look good, people.

"Here is what I know. Bev Harris is a big DUer"

Interesting. Can you provide any links, please? I'd like to put on my biohazard suit and go over there to see for myself.

This is one (8/03)about Diebold, I'll bring back more.

[Joe Brower]

Will all respect, good sirs, could you please keep this thread on topic?

Thanks,

[Phantom Lord]

Being that to use the search function at DU you have to be a contributor I can not. And they don't have a "find in forum" feature on member pages like we do.

Just do some surfing on the Election 2004 forum and in the archives. Just control F each page for Harris and you should breeze through it.

[Constitution Day]

Sorry.

BTTT.

[txhurl]

Here's a FR Diebold search

It's got lots of history.

VR, where are you these days?

[Joe Brower]

Thanks. Bio-chem suit is on, and over I go. Wish me luck!

[Joe Brower]

Thanks, CD. You're a scholar and a gentleman. $;-)

[Constitution Day]

Thanks, CD. You're a scholar and a gentleman. $;-)

You're too kind, sir, but...
It was all Phantom Lord's fault.*

[Phantom Lord]

I question the timing of your accusation.

No system is 100% secure or error free. I would prefer to return to paper ballots. There's too much bad blood between the dems and pubbies as it is, and now to introduce this plausible method of voter fraud is nuts.
