Keith Olberman Claims Election Stolen in Ohio and Florida.
MSNBC ^ | 11/7/04 | Keith Olbermann

Posted on 11/08/2004 9:27:36 AM PST by bduet

NEW YORK— Here’s an interesting little sidebar of our system of government confirmed recently by the crack Countdown research staff: no Presidential candidate’s concession speech is legally binding. The only determinants of the outcome of election are the reports of the state returns boards and the vote of the Electoral College.

That’s right. Richard Nixon may have phoned John Kennedy in November, 1960, and congratulated him through clenched teeth. But if the FBI had burst into Kennedy headquarters in Chicago a week later and walked out with all the file cabinets and a bunch of employees with their raincoats drawn up over their heads, nothing Nixon had said would’ve prevented him, and not JFK, from taking the oath of office the following January.

This is mentioned because there is a small but blood-curdling set of news stories that right now exists somewhere between the world of investigative journalism, and the world of the Reynolds Wrap Hat. And while the group’s ultimate home remains unclear - so might our election of just a week ago.

Stories like these have filled the web since the tide turned against John Kerry late Tuesday night. But not until Friday did they begin to spill into the more conventional news media. That’s when the Cincinnati Enquirer reported that officials in Warren County, Ohio, had “locked down” its administration building to prevent anybody from observing the vote count there. (snip)

Hope this wasn't posted already. DU is going crazy over this story and evidently Olbermann is fueling it. This guy is a wacko.

Kerry won neither Ohio of Florida. That they would make the claim shows how deperate and delluded they are.

Olbermann is a such a fool.

The counties in Florida he is pointing to all went heavily for Bush in '00, Dole in '96...

He is either trying to cause trouble or he failed to do any research... I think the former...

Keith needs to go back to sports. He's not politics and serious news material.

How many actually believe this theory? Will it resonate around the world like the "selected not elected" "stolen elction" rhetoric of the last 4 years?

Olberman is the quintessential NY pansy-ass. I bet he's been going after O'Reilly because he was jealous that the vibratory, heavy breathing phone calls were to a woman, and not to him.

He was great on ESPN but I've ignored him since his Ken Starr/Himmler days.

Olbermann is a strange man.

His very presence on television anywhere is proof of a left-wing media bias.

Poor Keith still can't get over the fact he didn't get laid in high school.
