McKinney rails against electronic voting
By KATE BRUMBACK, Associated Press Writer 21 minutes ago
Rep. Cynthia McKinney, in her first public appearance since losing her re-election bid last week, said Tuesday that the black community needs to oppose electronic voting machines, which she said are designed to steal elections.
McKinney also said the state of Georgia should not allow crossover voting among political parties in primary elections.
The fiery Democratic congresswoman who scuffled with a Capitol Hill police officer earlier this year and has accused the Bush administration of having advance knowledge of the Sept. 11 attacks said she considers herself a "black political paramedic," and the "black body politic is near comatose."
McKinney made the remarks during the National Dialogue and Revival for Social Justice in the Black Church. It was sponsored by the Rev. Al Sharpton's group, the National Action Network.
Last week, she lost her bid for a seventh term in Congress to challenger Hank Johnson, a former DeKalb County Commissioner. Johnson defeated McKinney 59 percent to 41 percent in the Democratic runoff.
After the runoff, McKinney blamed her defeat on the media and problems with electronic voting machines.

Oooh! Close!.. No wonder she's so mad.
Hmmm....does this mean with paper ballots you can easily cheat?
What a loser....
Parasite!
To paraphrase a 60's and 70's cliche'--
she is a debit to her race.
The crowd in Augusta, estimated at fewer than 200 people, gave McKinney a standing ovation when she was introduced and again when she finished speaking.Regarding that last paragraph... is Jihad Cindy receiving lessons from, or giving lessons to, The Mighty, Allseeing, Allknowing Hildabeaste?She refused to answer reporters' questions after her speech. A woman in McKinney's entourage got between the representative and a reporter. A male bodyguard said McKinney would not take questions.
Rants against electronic voting machines have become one of the best ways to identify mental illness.
This woman is absolutely hilarious!
Keep 'em comin' Cinny!!
Wait, I thought PAPER ballots were the problem in 2000. Now it is electronic voting machines? Arrogant Democrats believe they never REALLY lose.
Yes. We Jews control the voting machines, Cynthia. We control the voting. We control the world banks and media. We control the rotation of the Earth. We control the solar system! You are OURS! MU-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I blame it on her hairstylist--probably a Jew.
"Do you know who I wuz?"
I'm so glad she's still yapping. I thought I would miss that if she were defeated. Pelosi thought she's rid of her!
AP has issued a correction. Should read 'black political paranoic.' ;-)
McKinney is more like a black political enema.
crossover voting was an invention of Georgia democRATs to pad primaries. Now it shouldn't be allowed. Har, har.
