Election Challenge likely on Jan 6th

If you haven't been following John Kerry closely, get ready to hear of surprising developments. The vote-defrauded, potential president-in-waiting has just indicated through his lawyer that the validity of George Bush's reelection is no longer a given.

On 23 December, 2004 Kerry's lawyer confirmed to MSNBC's 'Countdown' that John Kerry will be seeking (likely on Monday 27 Dec.) to expedite court proceedings in an ongoing recount suit by the Green and Libertarian parties. That might sound like just another "count every vote" exercise by the Kerry campaign, were it not for two important details.

Kerry's court filing will conjoin him to existing allegations that Triad Systems, a Republican-linked supplier of voting machines to around half of Ohio counties --"orchestrated" a covert campaign to thwart a legitimate recount in Ohio. If the allegation proves well founded, it could invalidate the Ohio recount and eventually even hand the presidency to John Kerry.

ow MSNBC 'Countdown' reports the same Hoffheimer, in comments on their imminent filing in the Ohio recount, concluding their call for a scrupulous recount with this caveat:

"...Only then can the integrity of the entire electoral process and the election of Bush/Cheney warrant the public trust."

I'm always concerned wherever Dems and lawyers are involved. Can anything come of this?

Anyone know anything about TriAd? Are they politically neutral?

It is uncomfortable if the firms in charge of the voting are partisan regardless of which party.

ROTFLMAO!!!

I hope it's true. Can you imagine the fun we will have at the Democrats expense? :)

This is just the type of thing to galvanize us through the 2006 midterms. Please, Democrats, please do this. Please Kerry!! We can always use more seats in the Senate!

I cannot imagine a Republican-controlled Congress going along with this. If it's actually contested, there will be some debate, some networks will break in to cover it, and the President will be declared the winner.

This is a result of the fact that the Kerry campaign had money left over at the end of Nov 2 that they held back thinking that they were going to have to contest votes in Florida or wherever. Well, instead of turning it over to the DNC or saving for another Presidential run, he's going to use it up on lawyers contesting the election.

The problem with this guy has always been too much money and too much leisure time, and he's proving it once again.

If the whole country isn't republican, it is because those who aren't republican are stupid and criminally inclined.

I'm hoping this is true. This will destroy any chance Kerry had in 2008 whatsoever. Plus, it will make Jan. 20 even more sweeter!
