I am getting disgusted at the sheer arrogance of these Dems who just can't accept that people could vote Republican. The Yale Free Press today has documented how these counties in Florida, despite their Democratic registration edges, voted overwhelmingly for Dole in 1996, Bush in 2000, and Bush again this year. They just don't get the idea of moderate Democratic voters who can vote for the better candidate and that Kerry lost on his own lack of merits.
Isn't this, like, soooo last century's technology?
Well, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. This explains so much.
I know - I feel the same way...
Isn't that a big mistake for a "progressive"?
I'll bet we never hear from him again and that will be further "evidence" that it's all a big Republican cover up.
Some folks don't camp out by their computer.
That's what SEARCH was made for

[i]Looking at the
2000 statistics, also available on Dopp's site, there are similar
anomalies[/i][p]
they can stop right there
On Fri. 11/5 I heard about the voting machine that had mistotaled some 3000 votes to Pres. Bush's favor. Then Sat. AM, I was driving past Miller Park (Brewer's stadium) in Milwaukee. The current headlines on the electric sign read something like - BUSH 'CONVINCED' OF WIN, KERRY VOWS TO FIGHT. What had happened over night?!!? Had there been more machines found in error? Had Kerry retracted his concession, as Gore had done four years ago? I jumped on the internet at work and found that nothing had happened. The sign had been like that since Wednesday 11/3! It's over! It's over! What a deja 2000 moment.
I like the pretty poop-brown, flowery background they have! Can we get that?
In my case it would be computerS (I run a SOHO PC biz with 4 PCs, 1 laptop and a file/database server in-house). Since the election I have been busy with work and unable to follow FR as much. When business is slow I do "camp out" by a PC but FR is not my only news source. :-)
Yes, the vote was indeed corrupt. Tell them to look at the 200,000 "extra" Democratic votes in Philadelphia. When they do they'll realize that PA actually voted for Bush, and not for sKerry.
You know, the left has been whining about touchscreens for the past two years. Now in these articles they've switched to bitching about optical scans and they're ability to be hacked.
Screw them. I'm not even going to read anymore of it. They will just continue to whine long enough till some idiot gives them an audience.
Oh, and being zotted means you're a troll. You're not a troll too, are you?
I think it's time for the blue states to go. I'll happily relocate down south, even Alaska. In 5 or 10 years after the folks in the blue states have died off from hunger and disease we can move in and repopulate those states. Start fresh. Jim

Ah! Now why did I not notice that little phrase "Search site". I must be getting more blind than I thought in my old age. Time to get the glasses adjusted ... again.
Pardon me for pointing this out, but the 'crack' demonstrated in the article you linked consisted of physically sitting at the machine that already had an authenticated user logged in, having access and administrative permissions to the secured partition and drive the database file resided on, and write/modify rights to the file itself.
That's like saying it's easy to break into a bank vault as long as you have keys to the front door, the safe combination, and the proper credentials and security clearances to be in the safe in the first place.
Oh ho! I know what a "troll" is in USENET parlance. If it means the same here then no, I am not "trolling" for a flame war. I was honestly aghast at this and wanted to get other's reactions to it. I didn't notice I could search FR to see if it had already been posted. That was my greenness (and perhaps blindness) showing. :-)
Drives 'em up the wall.
"They will just continue to whine long enough till some idiot gives them an audience. "
In fact, Keith Olbermann, the idiot that he is, gave them coverage last night. I can't beleive MSNBC hasn't fired him yet - makes me wonder who he's sleeping with over there. He's taking direction from the looney left! Absolutely no credibility.
