As an Ohioan I say bring 'em on. We have plenty of tin foil hats and Koolaid waiting for them. They are gonna find their ship of voter fraud dashed on the rocks of Ohio's election laws.
The USA has a patchwork election system unlike any other country in the world...We have it that way due to States Rights. It is far safer to have different systems throughout the country for the same reason nature has many different species of trees in a forest. If one specie of tree has a problem, the whole forest won't suffer. This country spreads this risk of election fraud over the entire country, making a coordinated fraud attempt quit difficult.
NO FEDERALIZING OF ANY ELECTION WILL HELP THE COUNTRY!
WE ARE A REPUBLIC...Let's keep it that way!

What do they mean "Blackwell's estimate?" That was the number of votes counted on Nov 2-3. They try to make it sound as if Blackwell is somehow rigging the election.

In any case, I will be very pleased when the electoral college votes on Monday and it is official.

Oh, and I'm not even an evangelical, fundamentalist or currently a Church-goer and even I can see the war between good and evil, between decency and debauchery, between stability and anarchy.

"Few mainstream politicians dispute Bush's victory, and the incumbent's 3.5 million-vote margin nationwide was wider than any of the reported problems..."

They just can't accept the fact they LOST. Fair and Square. It's pretty arrogant to assume all those people would have voted for the Dems. As if!

As the Electoral College prepares to certify President Bush's re-election on Monday, concerns persist about the integrity of the nation's voting system — particularly in Ohio, where details continue to emerge of technology failures, voter confusion and overcrowded polling stations in minority and poor neighborhoods.

Few mainstream politicians dispute Bush's victory, and the incumbent's 3.5 million-vote margin nationwide was wider than any of the reported problems, which included insufficient or incomplete provisional ballots and, in some places, brazen partisan shenanigans.

But that is not stopping a disparate assortment of personalities — prominent among them Democratic congressman John Conyers Jr. of Michigan, the Rev. Jesse Jackson (news - web sites) and presidential candidates of the Green and Libertarian parties — from questioning the accuracy of certified results and demanding investigations.

Of greatest concern is the extent of disenfranchisement in the critical swing state of Ohio, whose 20 electoral votes guaranteed Bush's victory. "It's critical that we investigate and understand any and every voting irregularity anywhere in our country, not because it would change the outcome of the election but because Americans have to believe that their votes are counted in our democracy," John Kerry (news - web sites) said this week, after calling for a statewide recount in Ohio.

The nation's voting system, despite improvements since the 2000 Florida fiasco, remains a locally administered patchwork whose lack of national uniformity distinguishes the United States from many other democracies...

Use more paragraphs,

To Rachel Conrad,how about some facts!

where details continue to emerge of technology failures, voter confusion and overcrowded polling stations in minority and poor neighborhoods,

do your job,

what

technology failures

what

voter confusion and overcrowded polling stations in minority and poor neighborhoods.??

Be a frickin' reporter and find all this voting irregularity

instead of quoting leftists!

Do your job!!

Sore losers belly-aching. No election in a free society will ever by definition, be perfect. But this election was relatively clean and well administered and its results clear and indisputable. Except of course to the losers who cannot accept reality.

AP continues to campaign vigorously for a candidate who was defeated over a month ago. Hilarious!

Most of the screaming is in Cuyahoga County. That's heavy on the Democrat's side. I guess like in Florida they can't figure it out.

Geeez.A month later and the dimmies are still beside themselves with grief,and bitterness. LOL.

Anybody Catch Gomer Schultz's Tyraide on Err-America this afternoon. (I was just surfing by) He was schreeching about the nerve of "Move-On.com" telling the world that they own the demo party. Kinda fun to listen to it for a short while.

Even most Rats aren't drinking this Kool-Aid.

That's why I hope they keep it up. I have a formerly die-hard Liberal friend who works for the Board of Election in WA. She is disgusted beyond belief at the recounts. She's said that she won't ever vote for anyone who has been dragging this out.
I believe her. Next election, she's either going to be a "stay-at-home" Dem or a GOP voter.

I want more like that!

Good catch. Next time put an extra space between paragraphs and you'll do fine. Welcome.

This is all in a little left-wing echo chamber. 95% of the nation is busy with the holiday season. Even most Rats aren't drinking this Kool-Aid.

Am I imagining things, or does the MSM recite/print, practically verbatim, any press release faxed to them by crackpot left wing groups?

No they'll keep beating on the drum of "We wuz wobbed in Ohio" for the next four years in a continuing effort to delegitimize a Bush second term.
