A damning and detailed feature article, written by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., for Rolling Stone and documenting evidence of the theft of the 2004 Presidential Election is set to hit newstands this Friday, The BRAD BLOG can now confirm. The online version of the article will be posted tomorrow (Thursday) morning.
The article -- headlined on the cover as "Did Bush Steal the 2004 Election?: How 350,000 Votes Disappeared in Ohio" -- has been several months in development and will contend that a concerted effort was undertaken by high-level Republican officials to steal the Election in Ohio -- and thus the country -- in 2004!
Kennedy told The BRAD BLOG this morning that "the best evidence says the Republicans succeeded" in their plan.
He writes in the 10-page long article, and confirmed to us today, that evidence shows Ohio Sec. of State J. Kenneth Blackwell was "certainly in on" the scheme, and there are indications that the effort went all the way up to the White House.
Kennedy, who is co-host of Ring of Fire, a weekend show on Air America Radio, is an environmental attorney and the son of the late Robert F. Kennedy. This is his first public foray into the realm of Election Fraud, Election Integrity, Electronic Voting and, in particular, the questionable results of Election 2004.
A major publicity push is currently in the works to accompany the feature story which is sure to get the attention of more than a few D.C. and Buckeye State pols in addition to the mainstream media who have, of late, begun reporting more frequently on the litany of concerns and now-documented evidence that new electronic voting machines are hackable through a number of means.
Several public appearances are currently being scheduled for Kennedy in the coming weeks, including an appearance on The Colbert Report currently scheduled for Monday, June 12.
========== ...MORE... ==========
Sources have told The BRAD BLOG that Kennedy "does not hold back in this article."
One of the election integrity advocates involved in research and development with Kennedy on the story told us a number of weeks ago that "[Kennedy] essentially says everything that those of us who have been contending there was massive chicanery in the '04 election were right, and the media and politicians who ignored it at the time were wrong."
We'll have more details and information shortly from the story which includes quotes from Democrats such as Howard Dean and John Kerry, as well as pollster Lou Harris who also questions the validity of the 2004 Presidential Election in Ohio according to the article...

A sidebar included with the article calls for an investigation into Electronic Voting machines prior to upcoming elections...More soon...
========== ...MORE... ==========
Keeping in mind that a mere 6 votes registered for Kerry instead of Bush at each precint in Ohio in 2004 would have given the state, and the Presidency, to Kerry, here's a few quotes from the article...
Howard Dean: "I'm not confident that the election in Ohio was fairly decided."
U.S. Congressman from Ohio, Rep. Dennis Kucinich: "The secretary of state is supposed to administer elections not throw them."
Pollster Lou Harris of the Harris Poll -- described in the piece as "the father of modern day political polling" -- says: "Ohio was as dirty an election as America has ever seen."
Despite Harris' comments, which may be amongst the most explosive in the article, Kerry himself brings up the rear...
John Kerry: "Can I draw a conclusion that they played tough games and clearly had intent to reduce the level of our vote? Yes, absolutely. Can I tell you to a certainty that it made the difference in the election? I can't. There's no way for me to do that. If I could have done that, then obviously I would have found some legal recourse."
...DEVELOPING HARD...
Ed note: Glad to have so many of you folks stopping by to check out this story. While RFK Jr.'s story focuses largely on what happened in 2004, please check out BRAD BLOG's front page for a list of just a few of our "Hot Stories" (links at top of page) covering our crumbling electoral system in 2006! Including more scandalously under-reported stories than you can shake a stick at! From Diebold's now-proven hackable election systems to Ann Coulter's own felonious voting fraud to ES&S's complete electoral meltdown so far this year to Bob Ney and Jack Abramoff's dirty hands in the creation of the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) which has brought about the rise of these god-forsaken machines to the tune of 4 billion tax-payer dollars. Also, more more to come from Kennedy as well on the mess we face in 2006 as well, by the way, in the not too distant future. Stay tuned.
Has Bobby been barrowing Patches meds again?
I wonder if any of the Kennedys ever did an interview with American Drunkard Magazine (it actually exists--and it's a hoot)?
Nah...it's our mid-week Humor Break:)
Reading that a Kennedy is writing this immediately brought back memories of the 1960 election when Nixon refused to allow his people to contest the election results despite evident fraud. Whenever I hear anyone saying what a saint JFK was and what a villain Nixon was I always remember what Nixon did for the country by not contesting the results of that election.
Well .. the Kennedy's are a joke
I seem to recall that in Horowitz's 1985 book about the Kennedy boys, RFJ Jr., er, permanently disqualified himself from being taken seriously by anyone with a brain.
Read book to see details.

Nixon was a criminal... but he saved Israel in 1973. For that, I think, God will cut him some slack, even if the leftists don't.
What was Nixon convicted of?
FReeper please!
A lefty BLOG?
Well, they have an hour and a half to go (assuming they're on the east coast) -- so far, nothing.
>>I hadn't seen this anywhere else
Heard about it last night--I'm on a radio messageboard and one of the regular posters is a moonbat who talked about how the new Rolling Stone was going to have a 10 page article about how the GOP stole the '04 election.
Here in Mass., I think the Dems must have the voting machines rigged. Both Senators, all 10 congressmen, and a vast majority of state senators and reps are Democrats. I am urging an investigation into the rigged voting machines here in the Bay State... )
Beat it, troll...
Watergate was child's play compared to the shenanigans LBJ and FDR did while they were in the White House. Nixon's only crime was that he alienated the press to the point that they were looking for anything to get him out of office, things that under any other President they would have dismissed.
Ha--check out the comments...like this one:
"In 2000, why didn't Gore want the entire state recounted, but only certain precincts? Because he knows he would have lost the state. Did everyone forget that Jeb Bush won easily twice? Was that fraud too? If you believe Jeb's victories were also fraud, then you are just not facing reality and you want to believe you are helpless.
Why is it every time the Democrats lose it's some sinister conspiracy?
"So if the Dems win back the House and Senate in '06, it's a clean election. But if they fail it's the evil Republicans secretly stealing it? Blaming unprovable conspiracy theories on lost elections will not help the Democrats win over the American people. It just makes the Dems look like sore losers. If you think the radical left elements of the party(RFKjr. etc) will lead the Dems to victory, I believe you will be whining about stolen elections for many years to come.
"National elections are won in the center. Also, I find it ironic that RFKjr. is the author of the voter fraud of 2000 and 2004. I wonder if he will include as background the fraud of 1960, where the Dems stole Illinois and the election for JFK?"
Did Bobby Jr. use his superior investigative ability to learn how his uncle "won" Illinois and thus the presidency in '61? Inquiring minds want to know .
Nothing. Tell a lie often enough and people will believe it.
The hypocrisy of the Kennedys is breathtaking.
