Berkeley Florida Election Study Falling Apart?

Researchers in academia are apparently starting to punch rather large holes in the Berkeley study (http://ucdata.berkeley.edu) that supposedly showed that something went amiss with e-voting in Florida that gave Bush 130,000+ extra votes. Here are some links for whoever is interested. Be warned some of it is pretty heavy reading.

P.S. This is my first post so please be forgiving if I screwed up! :^)

Opps. How do I edit my post? I got a couple URLs on the same line and I also wanted to make them active links? Could someone help me with this? Thanks!

Note that you should make the hyperlinks into hyperlinks, and use the <p> tag as well...

Could someone help me? I want to edit my post because I got the URLs all on the same line. I would also like to make those links active so people can click on them. I don't know HTML, etc.

No editing allowed.

You can ask the Admin Moderator (use the "Report Abuse" button) or some such to fix things but usually for formatting problem just post a fix in a reply.

Ah, thanks! That looks much better. :^)

There are lies, damn lies, and Berkley Statistics....

[ThePythonicCow]

You can't edit an existing post.

Just reply to it, with an improved version.

[ThePythonicCow]

Looks like Koblenz has already done the improved reply - thanks.

The Berkeley statistics were as authentic as the Dan Rather documents.

While I'm sure you can get an HTML lesson in numerous places, here are some basic basics:

<br> start a new line
<p> skip a line (i.e., new line, plus a blank line)
<a href="http://www.site.com">site description underlined</a> will make a hyperlink
<b>Bolded text here</b>

For the rest, you're on your own, but these should be of use.

Any chance this post can be put on Democratic Underground?

Yipes,,,spacing error. These eyes are getting tired after staring at a screen for 11 hours. All the letters swim.

Johnnyz , I take back the broad.

Is Olberman still beating the drum?

It would be good if someone could get these links (and others you may find) to other blogs. The conclusions may not come of a shock to most of you, but there are a lot of people out there right now living in an alternate reality.
